Before you begin lamenting about the difficulties of wearing this form-fitting one-piece, let us take you through why your (reasonably cumbersome) efforts are actually worth it. For one, it offers a seamless fit, so you don’t have to worry about your top or shirt getting untucked. Two, the skin-tight garment can make you look leaner (and a whole lot sexier) as well. Three, the celebrities are into it too—everyone from Kareena Kapoor Khan and Malaika Arora are favouring the silhouette, and going by their twinning outfits, i’s evident they’re sharing their sartorial secrets with each other.

How Kareena Kapoor Khan, Malaika Arora and Janhvi Kapoor are wearing the bodysuit

Kapoor Khan’s black Adidas bodysuit is fairly classic—which is probably why she took it to two different occasions. For a house party, the actor paired the bodysuit with high-waisted skinny jeans and high heels, while Arora complemented her in a Gucci bodysuit, worn with flared jeans. Next time we saw Kapoor Khan wearing the same one-piece was at the airport—hand-in-hand with son Taimur Ali Khan, she had layered it with a plaid blazer, mid-waisted narrow jeans, comfortable sneakers this time.

Another ensemble that hit the right chord was the Veere Di Wedding star’s all-yellow look, where she styled a one-shoulder bodysuit with tailored trousers. The one-piece perfectly hugged her body and showed off her rock-solid abs. Meanwhile, Janhvi Kapoor’s daring take on the trend worked perfectly for evening wear—she opted for a printed bodysuit with a cut-out at the front, styled with high-waisted cargo pants. And Kim Kardashian West’s bold approach to wearing animal prints head-to-toe was equally favourable for a night party. If you’re looking to tone it down, take cues from Disha Patani’s relaxed and laid-back look. Ahead, we list out seven celebrities who are preferring to wear the bodysuit.
