we wear tights to give us freedom of movement while we dance, it would be impossible to perform some of the moves needed if you were wearing jeans etc. Also they do not rub. Another reason is that they make it easier for a teacher to see what we are doing and help to improve our dance technique. A further reason it they are simple and tight, so they fit into soft and point shoes like no socks could, and if they get ruined they are fairly cheap to replace.
The tights allow more freedom of movement that just about any other leg garment. Even sweat-pants wouldn't give you that much slack. Tights keep the legs fairly warm, allow those to see your legs and feet quite clearly and absorb perspiration fairly well. It's just the most logical choice.
The Itallian ballerina Marie Camargo started the whole trend of wearing tights for ballet. The rest is history...
