Here at One Body Intimates, we love a good bodysuit. It’s an undergarment that adds a new level of versatility to your wardrobe, while still letting you feel comfortable and cosy. Bodysuits are also super flattering no matter your size or shape, so you’ll definitely want to invest in some quality pieces this year. If you need some styling inspiration, here are 4 ways to wear a bodysuit, for all occasions and weathers!
Four different ways to wear a bodysuit
Casual daily outfits
While you might think of bodysuits strictly as undergarments, there’s no reason they can’t become part of your daily wardrobe. Underwear as outerwear is set to be a hot trend this year, so don’t shy away from pairing a bodysuit with your favourite pair of jeans and a chic, boxy blazer.
Loungewear
Bodysuits are also great to wear as loungewear. On those cosy days at home when you want to feel stylish but comfortable above all, throw a pair of relaxed joggers over a super stretchy bodysuit.
Layering up
Summer is the perfect time to break out your supply of strappy bodysuits, but they still have their use in winter. As temperatures start to drop, you can use these suits as an additional thermal layer under jumpers and cardigans. Most bodysuits are skin-tight, making them great at insulating heat during the chillier winter months.
Sportswear
Looking to change up your yoga wardrobe? Switch in some bodysuits. Make sure to wear suits made with stretchy, supportive material that allows for a full range of motion during those Vinyasa flows.
How to wear a bodysuit and still be comfortable
There’s a common misconception that bodysuits are inherently uncomfortable, however, this is usually down to poor quality fabrics and simply not wearing the right size suit for your body shape and build.
These factors combined can lead to the annoying occurrence of crotch closure buttons popping and the inescapable wedgie feeling. Definitely not what anyone is after when sourcing comfy underwear. Here are some of our top tips for how to wear a bodysuit comfortably and feel confident in every outfit:
Make sure to get the right size bodysuit- take into account all measurements including your height.
Research into bodysuits made with quality fabric that will allow for complete breathability and stretch to mould to your body.
Most bodysuits include a panty which closes at the crotch, often with small buttons. While you can wear this without the need for additional underwear, you might find it more comfortable to wear a lightweight pair of panties under the bodysuit.
To achieve a seamless look, opt for a bodysuit that gives you enough support for comfy bra-free days.
