A few trends we spotted? Plenty of sequin lace, jewel tones, and romantic looks still rule for jazz costumes.
For kick, leggings are still the favorite to emphasize lines! But we loved spotting a few costumes that pushed genres like St Charles' football kick routine with a hip hop edge, and Chaska's Odyssey themed high kick costume with a jazz feel.
Here are a few of the teams we were proud to have outfitted with their #LineUpLook:

Competition season officially came to an end last weekend for our Wisconsin high school dance team friends, at the the 2017 WACPC State Dance Championships! If we can say anything definitive about these lovely teams, it's that they KNOW how to do custom costumes! Brightly colored Pom uniforms, edgy High Kick costumes, flowy Jazz costumes, and innovative Hip Hop looks - there's a wide variety in Wisconsin!

If you're a member of the dance community, we have a feeling you (like us!) were live streaming UDA College Nationals this weekend! We were blown away by all the incredible talent - technique, skills, precision, and costume design get more and more impressive every year!!
UDA College Nationals are always a source of inspiration for choreography and costumes, and we find the trends for high school dance line usually start here! While we watched, we made note of a few repeating themes in regards to costume design. We can't take credit for all of these costumes and trends, but here are a few of our favorites!!
