7 Outfits That Reimagine The Bodysuit

It's no secret that fashion trends are hella cyclical. Bodysuits are definitely a part of that cycle. They provide a sensual and sleek silhouette, unlike any other top. As a young wild one, I always wanted to wear bodysuits because they just oozed a grown and sexy vibe I yearned to perfect. Luckily the resurgence of childhood trends like FILAs, tiny sunglasses, and everything I admired about Aaliyah, have come back. With that, we get to put our own sauce on the bodysuit trend.

While the bodysuit supplies a seductive semblance, lest not forget about its remnants of a onesie which comes with some pain. I say this to say: proceed with caution. And let's be honest, there are far more pros than cons because looking snatched is at the top of the pro list.

Ahead, find some ultra-chic looks that can help you reimagine the badassness that is the bodysuit.

Loretta looks like a melanin Barbie in her white bodysuit paired with the pink jumpsuit. We love how she made a simple bodysuit the perfect accessory. You can achieve this similar look with your fave pair of overalls.

I opted for a monochromatic outfit consisting of a kimono, high-waist pants and a lingerie-esque bodysuit. Luckily, bodysuits are all the rage right now so you can snag them from almost anywhere. I secured mine from the ever-faithful Boohoo.

The silky texture and finel structure of Chantelle's bodysuit is tantalizing. While she partnered it with these adorable bottoms, you could easily rock them with a tight midi dress or maxi skirt.

If you're choosing to wear a bodysuit, sometimes the best option is loose joggers like Kefilwe is donning; it provides a certain sense of balance.
