At Philadelphia Dance Theatre, our dress code creates a focused, respectful environment that honors the traditions of dance. Wearing a uniform helps young dancers understand discipline and community while minimizing distractions and comparisons. When all dancers wear proper attire, teachers can better observe alignment and technique, supporting safe and effective instruction.

Importantly, the level 2/2x dress code also serves as the costume for the June Showcase performance. This means families do not need to purchase additional recital costumes, which helps limit extra expenses and simplifies preparation. The same uniform worn in class is worn on stage—making it both practical and economical.

Dress code must be observed at all times.

PDT’s dress code is supplied by Eurotard and can be purchased directly from the links below, or in person at Dress 2 Dance in Glenside, PA.

Additional Guidelines:
Please clearly label all dancewear and shoes to prevent loss. Uniforms should be purchased within two weeks of registration and must be worn for all classes throughout the year and the June Showcase Performance.
