If there’s anything last year taught us, it’s that loungewear isn’t going anywhere. During a time where comfortable clothing is being prioritised more than ever before, fashionable girls have naturally been searching for ways to make casual and cosy pieces feel as directional as possible. Leggings are usually on the forefront of most casual wardrobes, but this spring, some of Instagram coolest have proven that there’s a new style in town. It’s not quite a legging, not quite a bodysuit, but a new, rather adventurous hybrid. We’re not sure if we should be calling them bodysuits with shorts, jersey rompers, bike-suits or stretch playsuits, but hopefully, by listing all three, you’ll get a solid picture of the kinds of onesies we’re talking about here.
These fitted cycling-short all-in-ones feel as though you’re living in leggings, but the styling opportunities are ten times more exciting. So far, we’ve the trend’s early adopters wearing them with chunky boots and jewellery or layered underneath big coats, blazers, and the like. Ahead, I’ve gathered some of my favourite shots of influencers wearing this trend, followed by my current favorite versions in the market. Hopefully, the takeaway here will be that there is in fact a garment that provides just as much comfort and ease as a pair of leggings but with much more style.
