Seamless Cross Back Tank Bodysuit
Seamless Cross Back Tank Bodysuit, $75
For the longest time, I thought bodysuits just weren’t for me. They never had a flattering fit, and were either too thick (causing me to overheat) or too thin (thus exposing every one of my insecurities). Cuyana’s far exceeded my expectations with its soft, stretchy comfort, flattering fit, and breathable fabric. It’s on the thicker side, but hugged my body without being bulky, and I surprisingly didn’t sweat through it as I usually do with bodysuits. The V-neck is classic and attractive, but the back, with its cross straps, shakes things up a little and makes it more playful. I plan on taking advantage of this rare breed of stylish comfort often when the weather warms up. — Connie Chen, Insider Picks reporter
Seamless Tank Bodysuit
Seamless Tank Bodysuit, $75
I love bodysuits. They're everything I'd like my wardrobe to be: sleek, comfortable, convenient, and versatile. Cuyana's Seamless Tank Bodysuit is a great option. It's soft, thin enough to breathe, and the stretch polyamide material has the stretchiness to streamline and contour without becoming heavy or restrictive. I love the classic ballerina scoop neckline that's both sensual and understated, and I found myself wearing this to both the office and weekend dinners. It's also a good (and not always common) design hack to have two rows of snap closures at the bottom to cater to a greater variety of shapes. My only complaints are that I wish it came in a thong version for versatility and peace of mind, and that $75 isn't ideal for a bodysuit. Having said that, if you're going to wear it often, the softness and fit are worth it if it's in your budget. — Mara Leighton, Insider Picks reporter
As a short person with a large chest, I find that it’s really tough to get proportions right on tight-fitting clothing unless petite sizing is available. Straps tend to be just slightly too long on me, and I have the same issue with torso length.
Though Cuyana’s bodysuit was incredibly comfortable, the straps and body were both just a little long for me, which meant the button closure in the crotch area felt a little baggy, even on its smaller snap. For reference, I got the medium/large size thinking it would fit my DD chest better, but it was just a little too long for my 5-foot-1 frame. Next time, I'll size down.
The stretchy material was silky and comfy, it wasn’t quite tight enough to support my chest without a bra. That said, I’ll definitely still wear it with a bra! It’s slightly less comfy that way, but will solve the issue of too-long straps. If you’re very short, I recommend sizing down for the right fit. — Sally Kaplan, Insider Picks editor
