Best Answer

You usually wear tights under a leotard, but sometimes you might need to wear a bra... Usually warm-ups (including shirts, sweatshirts, pants, wool tights, jumpsuits, and sweaters) are worn on the outside of the leotard. You are not supposed to wear underwear under your leotard because it looks amateurish and not very neat, but some and/or most little Ballet dancer (4-6 years old) wear underwear. They usually grow out of this habit, though. (:

What do you wear under a leotard?

It depends on the person. (This is assuming for a practice or rehersal. For performances, a costume director should tell you what needs to be worn and how.) Some will wear tights under a leotard to cover their legs. This can be full length, as in covereing their feet, while others might wear them to the ankles. Dancers can also wear mid-calf or knee-length tights under a letorad, too. Similarly, some chose to wear a dance short that covers their shoulder and to about 1/2 down their upper arm or to their elbow. Dancers might also wear a dance skirt over the bottom of the leotard, if it is allowed.For actually under the leotard, as in undergarments, that varries greatly. Dancers choose if they wish to wear underwear, and many opt for smaller, less-showing dance underwear or thongs. Often, leotards can be worn without a bra, but only for thsoe with smaller-sized chests or if it provides enough support. Some dancers choose not to wear underwear because it shows through, too.so be naked under!
