Leotards for artistic gymnastics

In our gray modern world, any aesthetic predilection is considered a wonderful phenomenon. Especially if this addiction is gymnastics, because it can be called a unique sport.

Many people think that the most important thing in gymnastics is skill and talent, but as the gymnasts themselves say, the quality of training clothes cannot be discounted. After all, if a gymnastic leotard presses or dangles, all creativity comes to naught. Every representative of this sport knows that gymnastics begins with the right suit.

Many people think that any swimsuit or even tracksuit can be suitable for gymnastics, but this is not so. The suit is simply unacceptable for gymnastics, because it will be hot in it, and besides, it always hinders movement.

A simple swimsuit will not work either, because such clothes even in a regular pool easily slide off the body, and even more so with active movements.

In order to feel comfortable in the classroom, you need to choose only those swimsuits that are designed for gymnastic exercises. Such things have their own peculiarity - this is elasticity and softness, in which a person feels in a swimsuit, as if in his own skin.

Leotards for gymnastics are significantly different from swimwear, because they are sewn from special materials and in certain shapes. There are such types of swimsuits for physical exercises:

• body-hugging swimsuit, such gymnastic clothes allow you to feel completely comfortable, without constraining movements. But this type of swimsuit should not be bought for children, because they grow quickly and after a few weeks you may have to change it for a new one, because the child has outgrown it;

• piece piece swimsuit - designed for sports, although it can also be used for swimming. This model is practical in that it does not slip off the body and allows you to move freely;

• two-piece swimsuit - a form of clothing that is perfect for water activities. For gymnastics, such clothes are not very practical, except for high-rise panties and tops to the waist, they are often used for children;

• free swimwear option it is often taken for children who are still growing, but for classes this option is not considered very convenient, because it tends to sag. But for performances, such clothes can be a great option;

• sleeveless swimwear - this is the most practical option for training clothes;

• with a sleeve - most often used for performances, in such models the sleeve is more an accessory than a practical addition;

• lycra swimsuit - it is particularly elastic, but does not like bleach and high temperatures, over time it begins to stretch and sag;

• nylon considered more practical because it wears much better and does not soar the skin;

• swimwear made of polyester this is the most practical type of gymnastic clothing, polyester is not afraid of chemical bleaches, does not stretch, does not float and lasts a very long time.

There are big differences between practice swimwear and performance wear.

For classes, you need to ensure that there are no additional accessories on the swimsuit. After all, they can interfere with the development of practical tasks.

But for performances, it is necessary that the models are bright, beautiful and original. For such clothes, accessories are provided in the form of chiffon sleeves, sewn-on skirts, rhinestones, embroideries, etc.

As mentioned above: gymnastic leotard sleeves are just a fashion accessory. They are made of openwork fabric, lace or chiffon. Such an addition is relevant when creating a romantic, feminine and mysterious image.

For gymnastic leotards, there are no restrictions in terms of colors; modern fashion designers offer a wide variety of multi-colored sportswear.

If you want to choose the right color for a leotard for gymnastics, you need to focus on your own taste. But if you're dressing for a performance, then focus on your creative look, which will emphasize color preference.

It's no secret that synthetic and non-natural materials are well established in the modern market. For this reason, over the past years, fashion designers have been fighting for natural materials, because they are much better, more comfortable and practical.

But not for gymnastic leotards, because natural fabrics are inelastic, not very durable and not very practical.

For training sessions, swimsuits made of synthetic polymer fabrics will be the most practical, because they stretch well and are comfortable to practice in.

But for performances, you can take natural silk, such material will shimmer brightly under the spotlights.

Velor can create an image of softness and originality, in addition, this material is quite pleasant to the body.

The choice of a gymnastic leotard directly depends on who and for what purpose you buy it. If this is a swimsuit for classes, then it is better to take models made of polyester or other elastic materials.Such models have a fitted shape, they are very comfortable to practice. But such a swimsuit is not suitable for a child who is growing.

When choosing a swimsuit for classes, avoid unnecessary accessories, they can hinder movement or simply interfere with classes. But for performances, give preference to bright accessories and airy additions that will help in creating a creative image.

If a performance is coming up, and there is no way to buy a luxurious suit, then you can try turning your work uniform into a festive attire. It will be enough just to sew a piece of fabric in the form of a skirt, or you can add wing sleeves to the swimsuit.

Stripes made of rhinestones or golden thread are considered very stylish. Mother-of-pearl beads do not lose their relevance as a material for embroidering any stage costumes.

Many people think that brands exist only for everyday fashion, but in reality, even gymnastic leotards have their own branded varieties, the most popular among them are:

• swimwear Self;
• Nike;
• Mad Wave;
• adidas
• Reebok;
• SK;
• gksport;
• arena;
• Speedo.

This is a popular brand that is known for its performance leotards. Their features are bright style, original prints and a good selection of models;

This is the main condition for spectacular costumes for performances, because the brighter the costume, the more beautiful the gymnastic number.

A person who has ever been to a gymnastics competition had the opportunity to feel that first impression of a gymnast as soon as she comes out to the audience.

The image of the participant forms in the audience a certain idea of ​​what the gymnast will try to convey with her performance.

Today, leotards with the addition of a fishtail or puffy skirt and winged sleeves are popular.

Fitted shorts to a piece swimsuit, which has a patterned embroidery with silver or gold thread, will perfectly complement a modest look.

In the trend today and a three-quarter patterned sleeve, fur patch or fringe for gymnastic leotards.

Nude or mother-of-pearl leggings for a swimsuit are considered very fashionable; such a set creates the effect of a perfect figure.

Another stylish solution can be considered elongated versions of sewn-in skirts, although they are not very comfortable, because they get confused around the legs, but they look very nice during a performance.

Many gymnasts prefer combined costumes that are made from different materials or have additions made from natural fabrics, up to leather and suede.

But, despite the trends, it is better to choose those swimsuits that are ideal for a certain number, because your success may depend on it.
