1. The Classic Work Look: Bodysuit + Tailored Trousers

Our Seamless Shapewear Bodysuit works particularly well here, providing a smooth base that keeps your outfit looking sharp from morning to evening.

A fitted bodysuit tucked into high-waisted jeans creates a defined waist and a clean top line without any bulk.

Our High-Compression Sculpting Bodysuit gives you the support of a bra and the smoothness of a bodysuit in one piece, making it ideal for evenings.

4. The Monochrome Look: Bodysuit + Matching Wide-Leg Trousers

Our Seamless Open Body Shaping Suit in a neutral tone provides the smooth base needed for a monochrome look to read as intentional.

6. Special Occasion: Bodysuit + Formal Trousers or a Statement Skirt

Our High-Compression Sculpting Bodysuit with an open-bust design gives you the freedom to wear your own bra while providing a perfectly smooth, defined silhouette. For wedding occasion advice, read our wedding shapewear guide.
Complete the look: wide-leg formal trousers or floor-length skirt, strappy heeled sandals, statement earrings.


Bodysuit Styling Tips: The Essentials

  • Match your neckline to your occasion. High necks and square necks read as more polished. V-necks and scoop necks are more relaxed.
  • Tuck or not to tuck? Bodysuits are designed to be worn tucked in — pair with high-waisted bottoms.
  • Layer with intention. Bodysuits work beautifully under blazers, sheer blouses, and open-front shirts.
