SABENA BODICE PATTERN

The "Sabena" bodice is a darling long line bodice perfect for many roles. From princess to peasant, this versatile bodice can costume dancers of many ages with its incredible size range and is a great choice for Swanhilda, Giselle, Flower Festival, La Fille Mal Gardee, and many more characters. The waist to high hip is shorter on this pattern, making it great for a softer tutu or romantic skirt. It also works well with a classical flat tutu as long as you check to see if you would like to add some length to the bottom edge where the bodice will join the nets. Please see the sizing chart as sizes vary between bodice styles.

The bodice pictured below was created by the incomparable Sabena Sellnow at a Halsey Onstage workshop with Travis Halsey.
