Concept

opera n. is founded with the passion for making high quality dance wear which helps creating grace and beautiful line of dancer.
Various elaborate designed leotards in beautiful colors exist in the world, but opera n. aims to pursue the leotards which create the dancer's elegance and beautiful line, which makes dancer as main figure not the leotard.

Creation Story

The trigger was remark from Etoile and current artistic director of the Paris Opera Ballet, Aurélie Dupont, to a student who was suffering from wrong wrist habits at ballet workshop hosted by LE TEMPS LIE in Japan.

« The cause of bad wrist habit may not be the wrist, but the elbow, shoulder, neck position, head position, or the entire upper body which supports the body. In other words, you have to check every detail of your body during the lesson. For that you should wear a simple leotard. »

We believe that simple dance wears can be like a great teacher who can guide dancers in the right direction.

Design in Paris

Like wrapping your body, great sense of fit and hold of the hips and bust are maintained.
Our designs focus on silhouette for presentation of “cutting for making legs look longer, beautiful décolletage line, sharp back line and long arms line”.
