Salsa Clothing - Where to find them
Salsa clothing is an essential part of salsa dancing,
especially for the women. You can't just go out salsa
dancing in just anything. You need your salsa
wear and accessories to be functional.
Before we tell you where to find your clothes, let us tell you a
little about them and perhaps give you some tips.
Let's talk about functionality
If you wear pants that are too tight, you will not be able
to be go down to the floor to do some fancy shines.
If your top is too loose, you may not be able to do your
dips without showing off your goods.
It also may not be a good idea to wear a hat because it may
get in the way. So many problems can develop if you wear
the wrong type of clothes.
So what clothes do you wear?
It really depends on the club. Find out the dress code if it
is casual or dress to impress.
Casual Dress
If its casual, women can wear a nice top, jeans or a
skirt, but remember to test the skirt so see if it flies
up too high when you turn ! Men can also wear jeans and a

button down or polo shirt.
When you dance, you can get really hot, so keep that in
mind. If its winter, make sure you can shed down to something
reasonable. Warning ! Never wear a
turtle neck or sweater when you go dance. You'll be extremely
hot. You'll find this out the first time you make this
mistake. Don't say we didn't warn you !
Dress to Impress
If the dress code is dress to impress, women usually wear
hot, yet elegant salsa dresses. Some still wear nice
pants and a top. Men should wear dress pants
or kackis, a nice short sleeve or long sleeve shirt.
Shirts can remain untucked as they tend to untuck themselves
later during the night.
The salsa club environment matters
One thing to think about is the environment you are dancing
in. Some dance studios use blacklights at their
parties. These things light up things that you would
never see in ordinary light. It is particularly fond of lighting up white
clothing. If you are wearing salsa clothing that is
black or a dark color, do not wear white underwear unless
you want it to shine through under a black
light.
The same thing goes for light or white "see through"
material. Yes, you can't see through it under normal lighting,
but you can see everything under the black light.

And don't forget about your shoes! If you are
wearing sneakers to a club, most clubs won't let you
dance. So remember to bring dance shoes. We
