Gorgeous
Performance Skirt for Swing Dancers
-
Twirls
up around you as you spin - but NOT enough to show your, um,
underthings!
-
Knit
fabric is ridged (like miniature "baby rib")
Our
fabulous Twirly Skirt is copied from a gorgeous handmade 1940's skirt.
We've
made this skirt for years - but this is our redesigned model... our
customers said they loved the design, but didn't want it to come up
far enough to show their panties (who can blame them?) - so we changed
it to be just as twirly, but a bit more modest because it flares out
low on the thighs. If
you hold up the edges it looks like bat wings - this is not a circle
skirt. There's much more fabric in this beauty. The
photo above right is to show that when you're not spinning, the Twirly
Skirt looks just like any other. You will feel incredibly feminine in
this. It is an absolutely wonderful skirt for dance teams - quite show
but still very classy. The edges scallop (they go ruffle, ruffle,
ruffle) as you spin. Because the waistband is elastic, you can
wear it high- or low-waisted. The bottom hem should hang (on most) at
or above the knee. Fabric is heavy enough to swish nicely when you
stop for a break. Yes!
THEY'RE MACHINE WASHABLE!The
skirts are unlined and the material is stretchy. Photo at right is
what the skirt looks like when flat on the ground - (color of actual
teal skirt is a bit greener than in this photo)

Gorgeous
wide legged Microfiber men's dress pants
-
Great
for Swing (and we hear that Salsa, West Coast Swing and Shag
dancers love them, too)
-
Three
pleats on each side
-
Extra
wide legs - 23-24" cuffed bottoms - measures approx.
25-26" around halfway down the leg
-
They
are made from 100% polyester microfiber and are totally
touchable
-
We
usually stock these in several colors - check the dropdown menu
at right for availability
At
right is the "silhouette" of these (made by tracing a
photograph of the pants laid out on the floor) to show you the
relationship between the rise (the length from the waist to the
crotch) and the inseam. They are meant to be worn quite baggy in the
crotch - so the inseam will probably not match that of your existing
dress pants.
MEASUREMENTS:
These
are made to be worn at or a bit below your waist. (We don't give the
inseam measurement because these are long rise pants and you won't
wear the same inseam as your jeans!)
-
"M" length has a 14" rise (the length from waistband
to crotch) and the entire length is approx. 44-45" (measure the
entire length of a pair of your own dress pants if you're not sure
these will fit)
-
"L" length has a 15" rise (the length from waistband
to crotch) and the entire length is approx 46-47" (measure the
entire length of a pair of your own dress pants if you're not sure
these will fit) Good
rule of thumb: if you have long legs you'll probably fit the L - if
you don't, you'll probably fit

-
Exact
copy of a to-die-for early Forties' wedge shoe!
-
OK...
not exact... because we added a buckle on the back to make it easier
to custom fit your foot! (we think of everything don't we?)
-
Flexible
Raw Leather Sole & Nubuck Lined Footbed - great for dancing
SIZING
TIPS:
We've tried these on several dozen dancers and they overwhelmingly
found that these run about true to size (if you are a half size you
will most likely go up to the next size - 6.5 wears a 7, 7.5 wears
an 8, etc.). If
you don't know your U.S. size we recommend that you use our Sizing
Chart to help you make a decision. WIDE FEET: Don't worry, these
almost never fit too tight on wide feet. Just loosen the laces.
ARROW FEET: Same thing, these fit beautifully on narrow feet. Just
tighten the laces.
Footbed
(inside length) measurements:
WARNING
- DO NOT MEASURE YOUR FEET - measure a pair of open toed shoes that
fit you if you want to use these to help fit you. Measurements are
approximate.
NOTE:
We only include these measurements because so many people call and
ask for the dimensions. Measuring shoes is NOT the way to figure out
the correct size.
If
you are worried about fit, feel free to order two pairs and send the
one that doesn't fit back!
