How Do I Wear a Bodysuit?

From matching it with your favourite jeans to spicing it up in a leather skirt, bodysuits can be worn casual, professionally or glam and sexy. From plunging necklines, sheer mesh all the way through to sensational lace detailing, when it comes to outfit styling, bodysuits are on the top of our list!

With a skirt

One of our favourite ways to style a bodysuit is with a skirt. From a sequin skirt paired with a faux leather jacket to a faux leather skirt, bodysuits look fabulous matched with skirts of any style and fabric. Adding a bodysuit to a skirt is one of the easiest ways to elevate a look. One of our favourite combinations is pairing the India Embroidery Padded Push-Up Body with the Elise Vegan Leather Midi Pencil Skirt. Contrasting the sheer, embroidered fabric of the body with the soft faux leather of the skirt creates a sophisticated and sexy look.

With trousers

Going casual on the bottom with a pair of trousers? Why not match with a daring bodysuit for a sexy edge. Whether you’re pairing your bodysuit with straight leg trousers or faux leather trousers it’s the perfect look to take you from day to night. You could even pair it with your favourite blazer to complete the look. Our favourite combination is the Elise Stretch Faux Leather Skinny Trouser with the India Sheer and Opaque Underwired Plunge Body, a sensational body that complements your beautiful, natural figure.

With black jeans

One of the easiest ways to style a bodysuit is with a good pair of jeans. Especially black jeans! If you prefer something a bit more casual on the bottom, a bodysuit is the perfect way to create a cool-girl outfit that’s equal parts sexy and stylish. Whether you are adding a pop of colour to your black jeans with the Romance Padded Push Up Body in red/pink or you’re opting for a chic all black look with the Statement Padded Underwired Body in black.

With blue jeans

We already mentioned how we love to pair our bodysuits with jeans, but it doesn’t stop at black jeans. Blue jeans look fabulous with all bodysuit styles, colours and fabrics. This combination will see you through your day. From a day out to a night out on the town, bodysuits paired with blue jeans can easily be styled with trainers and a jacket for the daytime and heels and a faux leather jacket for the night-time. Some of our favourite styles to match the blue jeans are the Vibe Plunge Underwired Body, Dark Romance Body and Suspense Underwired Body.

Your bodysuit questions answered

Now you know all the fabulous ways to style a bodysuit, we’re sure you have a few burning questions on bodysuits that you’d like answering. That’s why we’ve answered the questions that you're dying to know!

Can I wear underwear with a bodysuit?

Of course, you can! We don’t make the rules, you do! If you’re bodysuit provides added comfort and support then you might not need to wear underwear. However, if wearing underwear with your bodysuit is more comfortable then go ahead! Also, if you find your bodysuit is quite narrow in the crotch area, wearing underwear underneath might be what you need.

Does a bodysuit give you visible panty lines?

Bodysuits at Pour Moi are designed to fit and flatter in a way that looks discrete under your clothing. If you’re particularly concerned about visible panty lines (VPL) then opt for a high-cut style such as India Body. 

Can I wear a bra with a bodysuit?

Most bodysuits at Pour Moi offer support with underwiring, some are even lightly padded! So, there’s often no need to wear a bra. However, if you feel more comfortable wearing a bra underneath, Pour Moi have a range of bodysuits such as the India Long Sleeve Body that looks fabulous styled with a bra. In particular the India Underwired Bra.

What size bodysuit do I need?

When it comes to sizing, we’d opt for our regular dress size or bra size. However, all our bodies are different, so there’s no shame going up or down a size to find your perfect fit.

We don’t know about you but that was a lot of information. Why not let that sink in while you shop our flattering and fabulous bodysuit styles.
