Create the Perfect Christmas Dance Recital Costume For Your Dance Group

Winter wonderland dance recital audiences love to see winter in all its glory portrayed by dance students. For dance recital planners, this can be managed in a variety of ways. Students may already have some of the accessories and trims needed. The favorite of the perfect Christmas dance recital costume for your should include snowy white leotards and filmy white romantic tutus. Add them to a red, green or white accessories and it is an instant start to a Christmas Dance recital costume.

For the ballet students, try going toward a traditional English Christmas color scheme with the use of dark forest greens and lavender pink leotards and tutus. With just a bit of trim or sequins in contrasting colors, this has all the earmarks of a traditional Christmas ballet in the Dickensian style.

Nothing makes a Christmas dance recital like bright costumes bought online. The basics of a truly stunning Christmas dance recital come alive with metallic leotards and catsuits. Go for the gold with a heavenly golden scene. Choose a metallic gold leotard, hot pants and tights or leggings in metallic gold for jazz dance routines. Spritz golden glitter on the face and hair and the costume is complete. Be sure to use contemporary Christmas music for added interest.

Audiences will be thrilled by a Christmas dance recital that uses great Christmas Night Sky accents in silver and deep sapphire blue costumes. This works well for tap, ballet, and jazz and even acrobatic dance routines. Focus on a good lighting schedule for the stage or performance area. It's only a matter of starting with a leotard or catsuit and adding color coordinated tutus or accessories. Choreograph the dance routines to suit the theme of the Christmas Night sky using music that is not predictable. For tap and jazz students this might be blues music and for ballet something from Berlioz or Shostakovich.

If the audience has a special desire for a complete Nutcracker Suite Christmas recital, vary the costumes so that each dance routine appears in a variety of colors in alternating dance sequences within the ballet. Much of Nutcracker Suite costuming is little more than a classic or romantic tutu, white or pink tights and a basic leotard. For the sequences like the Chinese Dance or the Czardas scene, Dance Clothes UK offers a complete line of accessories dance wands and tiara headbands to complete the dance costume.
