💫 DANCEWEAR COMPANY OF THE YEAR 💫
An official badge to celebrate the win! @thedanceschoolawards
I’m not sure why Freda Silk was chosen as the winner of this category as there are many wonderful creative dancewear brands out there. Maybe it has something to do with:
- handmade to suit ALL dancers, whatever your age, body shape, skin colour.
- one woman owned and run business punching way above its weight!
- made to order means little waste and the ability to source eco friendly materials
- a personal service where I can create exactly what you need, be that a dance school uniform, an extravagant piece for a photo shoot or costumes for an international touring ballet company.
Whatever the reason, I’m incredibly grateful for the recognition and relish the opportunity for Freda Silk to continue to flourish.

The SouSou skirt brings joy. Look at these happy dancers!
Two of my adult ballet class dancers were wearing their SouSou skirts in class yesterday - I didn’t get a photo but can attest that they danced beautifully 🤍

A range of handmade leg warmers to covet at Freda Silk.
Ballet wrap skirts don’t have to be standard issue plain, factory produced or one size fits all.
My skirts are handmade, size inclusive and made to order - minimal waste, lovely fabric, and a choice of shapes.
Here’s Vintage Blossom (pink) and Winter Blossom (ivory) - both perfect for dancing all year round!!

I’m preparing a few bits to take to @intballetintensives masterclass today and as the sun’s out I did a little set of photos in the garden.
Spring/Summer weight leg warmers, mesh SAB skirts, mesh FredaBela curve skirts, a tiny eco SAB skirt with tiny ribbed leg warmers.
The dusky pink and black waffle leg warmers are new so not on website yet. If you like them, drop me a message!
All handmade in Bath, UK. Loved by dancers worldwide.
