Energetiks Tori Square Neck Leotard – Adult | ProForm™ EcoLuxe
A leotard with built in bra is usually sold on convenience — one less layer, one less strap to hide. The Tori is the version where the whole garment is doing that job. It’s made from ProForm™ EcoLuxe, a fabric Energetiks engineered with a compression feel: dense and buttery rather than thin and stretchy, so it holds the body the way a good pair of leggings does instead of simply covering it. Paired with the built-in shelf bra, a square neck and back, and a higher leg line, the result is a leotard adult dancers describe as feeling *held* — which, for a lot of us, is the difference between thinking about the mirror and forgetting it.
What does a compression-feel leotard with built in bra actually change?
Three things you notice inside the first class. It smooths — compression fabric distributes rather than clings, so it doesn’t map every line the way lightweight lycra does. It supports — combined with the shelf bra, there’s a gentle hold through the torso that makes jumps and quick changes of direction feel more contained. And it stays — EcoLuxe has strong fabric retention, so it doesn’t stretch out and go slack partway through a long rehearsal the way a thinner knit will.
Worth being straight about the trade-off: compression fabric is a firmer feel by design. If you prefer a leotard that skims lightly, this is more garment than you want, and our Ophelia is the airier classical choice. If you’ve ever finished class tugging your leotard back into place, this is the one to try.
Why a square neck and square back?
The square neckline is having a real moment in dancewear, and it earns it on more than trend. A square cut sits wider across the collarbone than a scoop, which visually broadens the shoulder line and lengthens the neck — flattering on most frames and notably kind on camera. The matching square back gives the same clean geometry from behind, and it’s a more secure cut than a low scoop for a dancer who doesn’t want to think about coverage while inverted or in floor work. The side seam detailing runs the other direction, drawing the eye vertically to lengthen the torso.
How does the Tori sit alongside our other adult leotards?
Our adult wall covers different priorities. The Ophelia is the classical staple — princess seaming, camisole straps, syllabus-friendly. The Grace is the lace piece for when you want something beautiful. The Perry unitard is the athleisure end, with hot short coverage for floor work. The Tori is the one to reach for when how you feel in the leotard is the deciding factor — the compression fabric and shelf bra together make it the most supportive leotard we stock. Teachers on their feet all day and adults returning to class after a break gravitate to it for exactly that reason.
Is the sizing genuinely inclusive?
More than most. The Tori runs Adult XSml through 2XLge — six sizes, two more than several styles on our rack — and the compression fabric holds its shape across the range rather than thinning out at the larger end. Energetiks fits their photography across body types too: their model Laura is 5’5″ (166 cm) in an Adult XSml, and Georgia is 5’9″ (175 cm) in an Adult XLge.

Sizing Guide — Energetiks Women’s Sizes
Energetiks sizes by body measurement rather than dress size. Because this is a compression garment it should feel firm — but girth (center of one shoulder, down through the crotch, and back up to the same shoulder) still decides between two sizes, particularly if you’re long through the torso.
| Size | US Size | AU/UK Size | Bust | Waist | Hips | Girth |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Adult XSml | 4 | 8 | 30.5–32″ (77–81 cm) | 24.5–26″ (62–66 cm) | 34–35.5″ (86–90 cm) | 57–59″ (145–150 cm) |
| Adult Sml | 6 | 10 | 32.5–34″ (83–86 cm) | 26–28″ (66–71 cm) | 36–37.5″ (91–95 cm) | 59–61″ (150–155 cm) |
| Adult Med | 8 | 12 | 34.5–36″ (88–91 cm) | 28–30″ (71–76 cm) | 37.8–39.5″ (96–100 cm) | 61–63″ (155–160 cm) |
| Adult Lge | 10 | 14 | 36.5–38″ (93–97 cm) | 30–32″ (76–81 cm) | 39.8–41.5″ (101–105 cm) | 63–65″ (160–165 cm) |
| Adult XLge | 12 | 16 | 38.5–40″ (98–102 cm) | 32–34″ (81–86 cm) | 41.8–43.5″ (106–110 cm) | 65–67″ (165–170 cm) |
| Adult 2XLge | 14 | 18 | 40.5–42″ (103–107 cm) | 34–36″ (86–91 cm) | 43.7–45.3″ (111–115 cm) | 67–69″ (170–175 cm) |
Energetiks sizing runs snug, and compression fabric amplifies that — if you’re between sizes or unsure how firm you want the feel, size up.
