Style #5320 Lace Leotard is back in stock! Here are photos of the new #5320 IVORY lace with (new) GOLD lining with CHAMPAGNE TONED tiered tulle skirt with IVORY sash.

SHOP the BANDED ADULT TUNIC (Ochre & Ivory)

When Chloe arrived for her first fitting/planning session in December, her mom arrived with plans to create a less poofy A‑line pleated skirt dress.
