The Essence of Shades Dancewear

Shades Dancewear has been created and developed to stand synonymous with luxury, comfort and diversity in dancewear apparel and fashion. Established with a mission to provide seamless, high-quality dancewear garments that enhance performance and elegance, the Shades Dancewear brand has garnered a reputation for excellence. Our commitment goes beyond aesthetics; we prioritise inclusivity, ensuring dancers of every shape, size, background and gender feel empowered and represented through their easily-accessible dancewear options. Our team are here to support all dancers and performers to embrace their ethnicity and retain their identity when they find their perfect skin tone shade match – whether it’s Bojangles, Raven, Uday or Pearl.

The Journey to Inclusion

Our selection of Ambassadors was extremely difficult as we experienced a high volume of applicants from across the UK. Our selection marks a significant step towards greater inclusivity in the dance and dancewear industries. By showcasing and empowering dancers from different backgrounds and disciplines, Shades Dancewear aims to inspire every generation of performers to embrace what makes them unique, celebrating diversity both on and off the stage.

Celebrating Individuality

Each Shades Ambassador brings a unique perspective and individual story to the cohort to share, relate and learn from each other and to bring their voice to the forefront of Shades Dancewear’s decisions. From overcoming challenges to achieving milestones, the Ambassadors’ journeys resonate with aspiring young and seasoned dancers around the world. Shades Dancewear celebrates these stories, recognizing that diversity is not just a buzzword but a fundamental principle that enriches the dance community.

The Shades Dancewear team deeply cares about the voices of the future generation and take onboard all feedback brought forwards to us. Our co-founders, Stacey Green and Laura Grant, as well as our fantastic Customer Care team, are always listening to your feedback and striding forwards with your opinions and experiences taken into careful consideration.
