Lace or long-sleeved bodysuits for women
The women's bodysuit fastens at the crotch and always stays in place: lacy for a dressy outfit, long-sleeved or turtleneck for winter, sculpting to smooth the silhouette, cotton for everyday wear. Among the brands available: Triumph, Selmark, Lisca, Sassa and Bye Bra.
A solid-colour long-sleeved bodysuit under a high-waisted skirt creates a perfectly clean line.
Why choose a bodysuit?
The women's bodysuit never comes out of skirts or trousers: no wrinkles, no overflow at the waist. It's the perfect top under high-waisted bottoms, a pencil skirt, or pleated trousers.
Lingerie bodysuit or everyday bodysuit?
The lingerie bodysuit, made of lace or tulle, can be worn underneath or visibly under an open jacket. The everyday bodysuit, made of cotton jersey or ribbed fabric, has long or short sleeves and replaces a t-shirt. The shaping bodysuit smooths the tummy and waist under a fitted dress.
How to wear a bodysuit?
Tucked into a midi skirt or high-waisted women's trousers, with a belt. A lace bodysuit under an open blazer gives a dressy look.
How to choose the size of a bodysuit?
Check the torso length: a bodysuit that's too short pulls on the shoulders, while one that's too long creases. For a bodysuit with underwiring, start with your bra size.
Bodysuit and bra: what to do?
Some bodysuits come with cups or underwiring and can replace a bra. Otherwise, opt for a seamless or skin-coloured bra that's invisible under a fitted bodysuit.

Frequently asked questions
How to go to the toilet in a bodysuit?
Most bodysuits fasten with snaps or hooks at the crotch. A snap bodysuit opens in seconds.
How to wash a lace bodysuit?
By hand or on a delicate cycle, in a mesh bag, in cold water. Lay it flat to dry: lace can warp in the tumble dryer.
Is a shaping bodysuit comfortable?
A model in your size, made from breathable fabric, can be worn all day. A bodysuit that's too tight is uncomfortable: don't choose a size down.
Long-sleeved bodysuit: what to wear it under?
Under a skirt, high-waisted trousers, a dungaree, or a shift dress. A turtleneck adds warmth in winter.
How to stop a bodysuit from riding up?
Choose the right torso length and a stretchy fabric. A bodysuit that's too short pulls up with every movement.
