... what the Professionals have to say!
When searching for dance wear I always find it difficult to find exactly what I'm looking for.. with the custom made skirts from Designed by Alice I was able to decide on the length and fabric pattern so ended up getting exactly what I wanted. As a dancer we are always striving to stand out and let our individuality make us memorable, so why shouldn't this start with our look in the studio?
Melissa Hamilton, Royal Ballet
What many people don't know about ballet dancers is that we spend most of our days in our class and rehearsal clothes. So, it's as important to look our best in the studio as it is outside. Designed by Alice skirts offer an element of style. They are flattering, beautifully made and can be customised to your exact taste.
They are by far the most beautiful skirts I've ever worn and they make class and rehearsal even more enjoyable!
Bridgett Zehr, English National Ballet
I never go a day without wearing one of my many DBA skirts. They are unique and flattering giving me a sense of freedom and individuality as I rehearse.
Beautifully made in a variety of designs, I have definitely found my favourite piece of dance wear.
Stephanie Williams, American Ballet Theatre

I love my Designed by Alice skirt! I feel pretty and comfortable, but I am most impressed by the quality. Alice has really taken the time to develop skirts that any dancer can appreciate. With many unique fabrics and designs, Alice and I were able to customize a skirt to suit me.

Delia Mathews, Birmingham Royal Ballet
'I was a ballet skirt hater until very recently - I liked the idea of them, but always found them so unflattering when I actually put them on. Alice's skirts are different - the elasticated waist means that they sit well, and move with you, and the fabrics are gorgeous - they just make you feel nice when you dance! I am a convert!'
Julia Davies, BTUK

‘I've never been a huge fan of 'ballet skirts', but when I tried on Alice's blue polka-dot skirt, I couldn't take it off..... I had to buy it on the spot and wear it for class there and then! Alice's skirts not only flatter the dancer's lines but as they are made to order, they also flatter the dancer's personality, making you feel comfortable and confident.’
Amy Drew, Principal EYB
'Since I purchased my first skirt less than a year ago, I have proceeded to buy another six.
There is something so addictive about the way the skirt enhances your lines, and the luxurious elastic that stays perfectly in place that keeps me coming back for more.'
