INTERNATIONAL BALLET ACADEMY
Dress Code
Students at IB adhere to a dress code to eliminate distractions, demonstrate discipline and make a unified presentation of their class together with their peers. Our dress code is specific (each level wears a designated color) but also flexible (leotard style is not designated) to accommodate the needs and budgets of our students and families. Leotards should be simple, solid-colored and not feature attached skirts or excessive strap designs.
​
Students wear their class leotard at the End of Year Demonstration, so class color must be exact. (Feel free to ask for IB's designated leotard colors at the Sock Basket - they have options that match all of our levels.
​
See below for the dress code specifics for each level, as well as men's and supplemental class requirements.
