Quick answer

A bodystocking can be worn as outerwear by layering it under sheer clothing or as a top with high-waisted bottoms, or as underwear by choosing opaque styles and seamless options for a smooth silhouette.

Why the fabric and fit matter

The key to wearing a bodystocking as outerwear or under is choosing the right fabric and fit. Sheer lace or mesh styles create a sultry outerwear look, especially when paired with high-waisted shorts or a blazer. For under clothing, opt for opaque or nude-toned bodystockings to avoid visible lines and maintain a sleek silhouette.

The Wear Me Now, Wear Me Later Bustier Lace Catsuit features a snakeskin lace bodysuit with a corset top and underwire bra, making it a versatile piece for both purposes. Its boning design and adjustable straps provide structure, so it stays in place whether you wear it as outerwear or under a skirt or blazer.

When to wear as outerwear vs. under

Wear a bodystocking as outerwear when you want to make a bold statement. It works well for date nights, parties, or themed events. Style it with high-waisted pants, a skirt, or shorts. Avoid wearing it as outerwear in professional or conservative settings unless paired with opaque layers.

Wear a bodystocking under clothing when you need a seamless base for a fitted dress, sheer top, or low-back outfit. It can also add a touch of intrigue if the outer layer is slightly sheer. The key is to choose a style that complements your outfit without showing through.

How to wear a bodystocking as outerwear or under

  1. Choose the right style: Select a bodystocking based on your intended use. For outerwear, choose lace, mesh, or sheer styles with details like a corset top or collar. For under clothing, pick opaque, nude, or seamless styles to avoid visible lines. Check the fabric opacity by holding it against your skin—if you can see your hand, it's sheer.
  2. Layer strategically: For outerwear, pair the bodystocking with high-waisted bottoms (skirt, shorts, or pants) and a jacket or blazer. For under clothing, wear it under a fitted dress, sheer top, or low-back outfit. Adjust the straps to sit comfortably under your outer layer. Avoid wearing a bodystocking under clothes that are too tight—it may create unwanted lines.
  3. Accessorize to balance the look: For outerwear, add a belt to define the waist, or wear statement jewelry to draw attention to the bodystocking's details. For under clothing, keep accessories minimal to let the outer layer shine. If the bodystocking has a high collar or lace trim, let it peek out slightly for a subtle hint of intrigue.
