Re: So many questions!

Hey BalletboyI'd like to read your information regarding proper wearing to avoid the unibutt look.  However I'm not sure where the archives section is.  Can you help me out?Thanks

>Hi guy!>So many questions!  Let me try to answer them one-by-one.>>First, I would like to know where to find white non-bulky, non-footed tights to create a more defined look both in front and back, >You need to buy tights from a dancewear site.  My suggestions would be www.nydancewear.com (will ship in unmarked packages), www.adadance.com, and www.tutu.com (at their men's section)(and there are many other sites).  100% nylon, primarily Capezio, are fairly light-weight, but not as sheer as women's tights you find at department stores.  Nylon/lycra blends, like Bal-Togs are sufficiently opaque.  Cotton/lycra can be more comfortable than nylon/lycra IMHO (I only wear cotton/lycra in classes now).>>and a dance belt that is less visible through the white tights. >Wear a flesh colored dancebelt.  There's a wide range of dancebelts, that usually come in white, black and beige (flesh), but some are available in "suntan,"  although I have never seen one in a "flesh" color for African-Americans in many years.>>Also, I have seen many male dancers that have a very defined look in back but all the tights I have seen do not feature a seam in back. >Tights made for dancers will have a rear seam.  And, the NoUniButt look, where the tights fit into the buttcrack, is a matter of proper adjustment of the material.  I have posted this (see archives), but it's way too long to add to this message.  I can email the document to you if you want.>>Second, what do you wear to cover your ankles/feet when you use non-footed tights? Socks or just bare feet? >This depends on your comfort level.  When I wear non-footed tights/unitards I prefer to wear over-the-calf thin white nylon socks.  I don't like bulky socks because they interfere with the feel of the floor, IMHO.  But I have friends who just go barefoot.>>And do you think leather or cloth footwear is better, and what color would you recommend when wearing white tights? >I have a preference for leather, but finding good quality leather slipper for men is getting more difficult.  IMHO, I find that the leather molds more to my foot than canvas.>And my preference, regardless of what color tights I wear, is for white slippers.  IMHO, I find the white slippers allow me to see how my foot is positioned when looking in the mirror.>>Finally, what do you recommend wearing (and what color) on top with white tights to create better definition? I would rather not use a tank top; is there something that offers short sleeves but good definition?>This again is a matter of preference.  I have bought Bal-Togs cotton/lycra short-sleeved tops at www.nydancewear.com (a custom order, also available in nylon/lycra; GET A NY Dancewear paper catalogue to see the various tops available), available in a wide variety of colors.  The color really depends on your personal preference, although I prefer lighter colors.>You didn't ask about unitards.  There are peculiarities to wearing unitards.>balletboy
