On stage they will wear a costume, probably a tutu. But while in class the proper uniform is a black leotard, pink Ballet tights, leather or canvas ballet shoes, and your hair in a nice bun. Wrap or pull-on skirts and bun accessories are a nice touch!

Leotard: Just a basic correct-fitting leotard is good.

Tights: Depends on your studio's requirements, but pink or black for girls is good. (Black tights are usually cut off just above the ankle and do not tuck into your shoes)

Legwarmers: Can be different sizes and colors, usually used when it is cold or when the dancer is recovering from an injury she/he may use a legwarmer to warm up the injured ankle or whatever it is faster.

Shirts: Some classes allow you to wear shirts. They should be tight fitting though so your teacher can see your body better.

Sweatpants: Most teachers do not like you to wear sweatpants because the obstruct their view of your legs. If you are allowed to wear them they are usually only allowed during winter.

Unitard: Some dancers may prefer a unitard- a one piece leotard basically.

For guys, it is usually a white shirt and black tights or a unitard.

It varies depending on what studio/company you dance with though. Some require a certain color leotard, etc. My company has specific colors assigned to each level of class, until you get to the advanced level, in which you can wear any color. So check the website of your dance studio or call them and ask.
