Scroll down to find the costume for each of your classes at ASA. Each class has been assigned a dance, one dance per page, listed in order of classes Monday-Saturday (Father/Daughter and Company Dances listed at the end of the packet). Each page will outline the costume (with a photo if available), price, and any other information you need to know at this time. Choose your dancer’s size by following the instructions below. NOTE: Due to the volume of costumes needing to be ordered, ASA will not be doing exchanges for any other reason than manufacturer defects. Choose your dancer’s size wisely (costumes can always be taken in for a smaller fit, but they cannot be made larger). XL costumes are considered a custom order and will incur a $10 surcharge per costume, if selecting CXL/AXL/XXL add $10 per costume to your order. Fill out your recital commitment sheet and costume order form completely. Most costumes will use the Universal Size Chart below, if your page has an alternate chart, please use the chart on that page to size that particular costume. All forms and payment in full for your costumes and recital commitment are due NO LATER than January 20th, 2018. If you do not turn in your paperwork and payment by that date your dancer will not have an order placed for them. Questions? Send an email to:
[email protected]. We look forward to seeing all of our dancer’s on stage this year!
HOW TO MEASURE YOUR DANCER • • •
Use a combination of all measurements (Bust, Waist, Hips, Girth, Inseam) to determine size. A leotard, undergarments, or a bathing suit should be worn when taking measurements. Make sure to account for growth, we generally recommend the following be added to each measurement to account for growth between now and the recital in June: Ages 2-6 – Add 3 inches Ages 7-10 – Add 2 inches Ages 11-13 – Add 1 inch Ages 14+ - Add ½ inch/no inches
A-Bust –________ With arms down at sides, measure around the fullest part of the chest, keep the tape measure parallel with the floor.
B-Waist – ________ Measure around the natural waistline, the narrowest part of the upper body (usually near the belly button)
C-Hips – ________ Measure around the fullest part of the lower body, keep the tape straight and parallel to the floor.
D-Girth – ________ Measure from the center of one shoulder, down the front through the crotch and up the back to the starting point.
E-Inseam – ________ Measure from the inside of the leg, from the crotch to 2 inches below the ankle bone.

*Girth is ALWAYS the most important measurement; It is our experience that when the chest and hip measurements do not correspond with a size, the girth measurement should be used as the deciding factor. -Costume are non-refundable and non-exchangeable, if your child’s costume is too big you must take it in to fit. Keep in mind that it is much easier to make a costume smaller, instead of larger. ALL COSTUMES ARE FINAL SALE – NO REFUNDS OR EXCHANGES.
