Our 2025 Training Leo Partner!
We’re thrilled to officially welcome Couture Costume Dancewear as a proud sponsor of Mother Nature and our 2025 cast. Based in Melbourne, this incredible small business is known across the calisthenics world for their handcrafted leotards, skirts, and costume pieces that are as stunning as they are comfortable.
The ACTC Look: ‘KATY’
After much deliberation (and swooning over fabric swatches), the ACTC creative team selected the KATY design for our cast training leotards—and we couldn’t be more obsessed. This sleek, stylish piece represents everything we love about Couture Costume Dancewear: a flattering silhouette, thoughtful detail, and quality that moves with the performer.
With over 200 styles available, and every one customisable in your choice of fabric and colour, Couture is the ultimate destination to reimagine your cali wardrobe. Whether you’re shopping for team training, solo stagewear, or that dream photoshoot outfit, they’ve got you covered.
More Than Just Leotards
Couture also handcrafts classic and colourful Cali skirts—with adjustable waistbands and custom lengths to ensure the perfect fit for every dancer. Choose timeless black or white for training, or make a statement with a bright pop of colour.
Their costume range includes everything from unitards and dresses to briefs, crops, and accessories, ideal for stage bases you can glam up with your own sparkle. We’re not saying you’ll spot a couple of familiar ACTC faces in their lookbooks, but… 👀
Made by a Calisthenics Queen
What makes Couture truly special? Its founder. The brand was created by Karina Doig - a seasoned cali performer from Ceres Calisthenics Club in Victoria—who was tired of wearing leotards that were uncomfortable, unflattering, or just didn’t work for long rehearsals. She decided to take things into her own hands, crafting patterns built for real dancers and real bodies.
Ten years on, Karina’s pieces are renowned for their fit and comfort—and have become a staple for clubs and soloists around the country. As the saying goes: “There’s nothing comfier than Couture.”
For the Studio. For the Stage. For the Camera.
Each Couture piece is handmade in Melbourne with love, purpose, and performance in mind. Whether you're chasing comfort, confidence, or a custom costume that turns heads, Couture Costume Dancewear is where your collection begins.
