Back in the day, I thought bodysuits would never look good on anyone who wasn’t stick thin. (Thanks, society, for putting those thoughts in my head!) But once I got out of that negative headspace and into a body and fat positive one, I started shopping for warm-weather must-haves, like plus-size summer bodysuits. Bodysuits can be worn by anyone, and I’m mad that I ever thought I could never pull off a cool AF bodysuit.
Sometimes I still don’t quite understand why you’d wear a bodysuit that basically looks like a shirt instead of just wearing a shirt, but then I remember that a bodysuit gives you a sleek and smooth tucked-in look that a plain shirt just doesn’t. In other words, sometimes tucking in a shirt can leave it looking bunchy, falling out and coming un-tucked, etc. But a bodysuit keeps everything where you want it. (The only qualm, of course, is bodysuits are kind of hard to pee in.)
As someone who’s a pretty recent bodysuit convert, I picked out some of my favorite plus-size summer bodysuits for you to shop now. And if I, someone who used to hate bodysuits, thinks these are cute, you know they have to be. (Also, I just have really good taste, so…) All these bodysuits are perfect for summer (or pretty much any season, TBH), so shop ’til your warm-weather wardrobe looks as good as this shopping guide.
