Bodysuits are everywhere, from red carpets to concert stages to our social feeds—and maybe there’s a reason for it. According to fashion expert and stylist Audree Kate López, bodysuits look good on everyone. “It hugs your curves, shows off your shape, and acts like a light compression shapewear in the best way possible.”
Even so, bodysuits can be tricky to style. Since they’re a one-piece garment that comes in almost an endless array of styles and fabrics, finding the right cut for your body can be a little complicated and that’s even before you take the whole “to snap or not to snap” adult onesie quandary into account. “If you have trouble finding a top you feel confident in, and you don’t like the current trendy Y2K, crop, or cut-out tops, add a bodysuit to your roster,” she advises. “A bodysuit gives you coverage while it smooths and gives your girls the perfect support. It’s lightweight enough so it’s breathable.”
