Bodies for women: A modern take on an 80s classic
It's official: The bodysuit is back! Once, these garments were seen as a staple of the 80s wardrobe. Nowadays, though, they're an example of funky modern style. Forget leotards and leggings. The modern woman's bodysuit doesn't belong in the gym. Instead, you'll find bodies for women in all kinds of fabric and finishes. They offer a practical alternative to most tops. There's no need to tuck them in or worry about them riding up as the day goes on: a bodysuit will stay firmly in place, and will also avoid any rolls or bumps of fabric sticking up under your jeans or skirt. This makes it the perfect choice for a smooth silhouette.
Wearing a bodysuit for a night out
A body is ideal if you want to avoid any lumps and bumps. For a night out, show off your figure by pairing your bodysuit with skinny jeans or a tight skirt. Give your outfit a summery twist by swapping your jeans for a pair of short shorts, then finish with towering heels. For a really daring look, go for a lace body that shows your skin. One of the best uses of a body is in creating a feminine silhouette. To achieve this, make sure that whatever you're wearing on the lower half of your body is high-waisted. This will neatly nip you in at the waist, giving you an hourglass look.
Choosing a body for everyday style
Bodies for women aren't just for special occasions. You can comfortably incorporate them into your day-to-day wardrobe, too. Look for a bodysuit made from a jumper knit in winter, or a lighter weight fabric in summer and keep an eye out for exciting necklines and unusual details that keep your body far away from its 80s gym origins. Unlike on a night out, you don't want to emphasise your figure too much. Balance your bodysuit with something a bit looser on the bottom half of your body. Pair it with an A-line skirt, for example, for a look that will still have you appearing feminine and sexy, but in a way that's totally appropriate for daytime. Alternatively, dig out your favourite pair of mom jeans and wear them with your bodysuit to show off a rocking waist at the centre of a well-balanced outfit.
