Cheerleading costumes have become a staple of high school football games and television shows. From cheerleaders in pigtails to cheerleaders in full makeup, cheerleading costumes come in all shapes and sizes. Whether you’re looking for a cheerleader costume or a costume for any other occasion, you’ll find it here.
The modern cheerleading costume is much more sophisticated than the vintage ones. The new style has been influenced by the changing times. In the 1970s, cheerleaders still wore skirts and saddle shoes with thick socks. Cheerleading was not popular among women until the 1940s, when women were allowed to join. Tallman’s designs reflected this change and introduced geometric patterns to the cheer uniform.
In the early 2000’s, a movie called Bring It On was released, and cheerleading costumes were still considered sex symbols. While cheerleaders were portrayed as popular, slutty girls, and mean girls, their image was ripe for exploitation. Since then, uniform companies have adapted to changing times and changing tastes. The pleated skirt is now being replaced by an A-line skirt.
In addition to cheerleaders wearing skirts, cheerleaders wear a leotard-like undergarment called a bodysuit. They match the uniform’s color and design, snap at the bottom, and are available in various lengths. Traditionally, the skirt should cover the midriff and touch the bottom of the shell slightly. However, modern cheerleaders can wear a short skirt or even a full bodysuit with the appropriate accessories.
