Let us introduce ourselves.

We are The Dancers Commune. A community focused street wear brand, based in Australia, for dancers.

Founded by me, a Brisbane dancer, artist, fashion designer and creative, Cassidy Commons.

I have always been obsessed with dance and fashion since the earliest I can remember. I grew up in the dance community through school and out of school. Mainly practicing styles like Jazz, Jazz Funk, Contemporary and SOME Hip- Hop. I took a 7 year break from dancing and followed my other passion, which was fashion design. After earning myself an Advanced Diploma in Fashion Design and Tech, and a few years trying to break into the fashion industry, I re-entered the dance community. I started with casual heels classes, then commercial classes and fast forward to now where I am heavily invested in Hip-Hop. It wasn’t until involving myself in the dance community again, that I found my place. Both with my love for dance and my love for fashion and textiles. It was here that I noticed a need for a bloody good pair of track pants, or the desire for a nice baggy tee, and I became acutely aware of every dancers search for these items.

Hell, all we wanted were trackies that didn’t shed their fluff all over the dance floor when we trained, or a baggy tee that we could either wear loose or tucked up over our shoulders. We wanted clothes that became a fashion statement, clothes that provided a sense of identity or helped us portray the persona we were using on stage or in the studio. We were asking each other “hey where did you get those trackies or shorts from”, because the hunt for these items was hard, and buying from 3-4 brands just to build one outfit was tiring.

So that right there, is where The Dancers Commune was born in my mind. I spent my time at training, listening to what my fellow dancers wanted, what they were missing and what they needed.

The Dancers Commune is a brand that dancers can come to for their favourite trackies or jumpers, shorts and tees. A brand that has a strong identity, while showcasing unique artworks. It is a brand that represents community, confidence, creativity, expression, persistence, performance and the art form that is Dance. It is a brand that will keep morphing and growing with the community. A brand that will keep creating in order to inspire our fellow dancers. A brand that will live by their motto…

Grow . Create . Inspire
