Our most recent ‘Made in London’ campaign celebrates the artistry and craftsmanship behind our couture dancewear, each dress meticulously created by skilled dressmakers in London. In the world of performance dresses, design is only part of the equation; it’s the fabrics that truly bring them to life on the dance floor.
Every dancer’s performance is a combination of strength, grace, and precision. To support each movement, we rely on the finest performance fabrics, including one of our most sought-after materials, Lycra. Lycra’s renowned elasticity allows dancers to move freely, executing intricate routines without restriction. Whether it’s the fluidity required in a ballroom waltz or the sharp precision needed for contemporary dance, the right fabric enhances both form and function, ensuring dancers feel as confident as they look.
But Lycra is not the only high-performance fabric we use. We carefully select a range of fabrics to meet the unique demands of each dress and routine. Materials like stretch crepe, stretch net, and georgette are key to ensuring comfort, durability, and visual appeal. These fabrics, alongside Lycra, are the hero fabrics of our 2025 dancewear collection. Stretch crepe provides a beautiful structure and smooth finish, while stretch net adds texture and breathability, perfect for intricate movements. Georgette, known for its soft flow and elegance, brings an ethereal quality to each design. Together, these fabrics deliver maximum flexibility, breathability, and a flawless fit, allowing dancers to perform at their best without ever feeling restricted.
Durability is just as important as flexibility. Lycra retains its shape even after countless movements, ensuring that your dress remains just as striking after hours of performance as it did the first time you put it on. The 4 way stretch fabric provides a flattering fit that moves seamlessly with the body, supporting comfort and performance in equal measure. Whether it’s the subtle sheen of Lustre Lycra or the matte finish of Matt Lycra, the fabrics we use maintain their striking appearance throughout the dance, offering a beautiful balance of function and style.
Our couture dresses merge the rich tradition of couture tailoring with innovative performance fabric technology. Crafted by expert dressmakers in London, each dress combines the finest craftsmanship with the latest in high-performance materials like Lycra, stretch crepe, stretch net, and georgette. This careful fusion ensures that each piece not only meets the demands of performance but also stands as a statement of luxury design. The fabric works seamlessly with the dancer’s body, allowing full freedom of movement while maintaining the dress’s structure and elegance. Every detail, from the stitches to the seams to the fabric choice, is meticulously considered to create a garment that elevates both the art of dance and the art of dressmaking. The result is a couture dress that delivers exceptional comfort, durability, and timeless style.
Our "Made in London" campaign is a testament to the pride we take in our heritage. To us, being "Made in London" is not just a label - it’s a mark of the exceptional skill, dedication, and creativity that defines our work. London has long been a hub of craftsmanship and innovation, and for Chrisanne Clover, it’s where our couture dancewear is born. As Giles explains in our video, London is synonymous with precision, and each dress we create reflects this legacy. From the initial design to the final stitch, every piece is crafted by skilled dressmakers who blend traditional techniques with modern fabric technology. It’s this fusion that ensures each dress not only performs at the highest level but remains a stunning example of luxury design.
The 2025 dancewear collection continues this tradition, offering the same meticulous craftsmanship that has become synonymous with our couture pieces. Designed for both practice and performance, the new range brings together comfort, flexibility, and timeless style, with Lycra, stretch crepe, stretch net, and georgette woven into each design to ensure dancers experience maximum freedom of movement and lasting durability.
