Bodysuits are currently enjoying a renaissance of sorts thanks to their ability to enhance your figure while remaining comfortable to wear all day long. The best bodysuits with suspender straps not only smooth your silhouette but also offer an easy way to attach stockings for a sexy look.
Of course, there are those who have seen the potential for using bodysuits as slightly raunchy outerwear for clubbing and events, but the general consensus is that they are best used as a foundation for an outfit.
What is a bodysuit? Bodysuits are one-piece, form-fitting garments which cover the torso and crotch area (much like a swimsuit). They can also cover the arms, legs, hands, or feet, and can be found in lingerie and outerwear forms. In short, this is an incredibly versatile piece of clothing that covers all bases and can be adapted to suit women of all shapes and sizes!

The best bodysuits with suspender straps combine a stunning look with the convenience of adding stockings to your outfit. Here are 10 beautiful items for your consideration.

Review
Maison Close is well known for producing stunning lingerie that feels as good as it looks, and this bodysuit is no exception to the rule. The contrasting lines of opaque and sheer material make this soft, second-skin bodysuit both classy and sexy.

Available in UK sizes 6 to 14, this is not a terribly inclusive brand. Still, if you’re on the slimmer side, they do offer affordable luxury and consistent quality.

90% Polyamide, 10% Elastane

3. Plum Lace Garter Slip with Suspenders – DREAMGIRL
Review
Mayfair Stockings is known for affordable luxury and classic elegance, and this bodysuit is a perfect embodiment of this. The plum lace and mesh which make up its body are beautiful and of incredible quality.
A delicate pattern of lace makes it feel and look very feminine, plus the balconette style of the cups is both flattering and versatile. The edging stripes give it a strong frame, and the built-in suspender straps make this an all-in-one piece of lingerie.

4. Adjustable Bondage Angela Dress – BORDELLE
Review
Here is a brand that really does not do ‘everyday’ items. Bordelle makes statement pieces, and boy does this bodysuit make a statement.
This beautiful piece is made with 140 24k gold-plated components and formed with signature satin straps. The straps are fully adjustable to hug every curve, and each bodysuit takes one full day to make. The attached suspender clips cannot be made ‘longer’ as such, though, so you will need to have long-line stockings.
Available in sizes S, M, and L, this is a highly versatile dress. Still, it doesn’t really accommodate very slim or large women (the smallest is equivalent to a 30C while the largest is equivalent to a 36D).
Composition:
89% Polyamide, 11% Elastane

5. VIP Retrolution Padded Staylo Slip – GOSSARD
Review
Gossard is not a household name, but don’t let that fool you; they make high-quality, beautiful lingerie. The Retrolution bodysuit is a classy and elegant ode to the 40s and 50s.
Black satin and delicate lace with a lightly structured cup and built-in suspenders make it perfect for wearing under dresses and pencil skirts. In fact, you can’t help but feel sexy when you wear this.
Available in sizes 32B to 36D, this is bodysuit has a little stretch, too, so it can accommodate slightly larger or smaller bodies.
Composition:
71% Polyamide 20% Elastane 9% Polyester

6. Pimlico Non Pad Underwired Thong Body – FIGLEAVES
Review
While it stocks other brands, Figleaves is very much an up and coming brand in its own right. This white bodysuit is simple but well-made and classically elegant. The mesh varies in opacity and is trimmed by satin and velvet ribbons which give it structure.
The thin straps and balconette neckline also ensure that it can be worn with most outfits. Another nice touch with this bodysuit is that the suspender clips are detachable; if you don’t want them in the way you can go without!
Available in sizes 32 to 38 and cup sizes B to G.
Composition:
73% Polyamide, 20% Polyester, 7% Elastane

7. Sage Decision Thong Bodysuit – MAISON CLOSE
Review
The Sage Decision Thing Bodysuit is another stunning entry from Maison Close. The brave and bawdy could wear this as a risqué shirt on its own, but most would agree that some form of undershirt will make it a stunning shirt as well as a handy garter belt.
The bottom half of this bodysuit has detachable suspender straps which make it perfect for wearing with a tight skirt; no VPL here! The sheer tulle which makes up the body is speckled with gold to make it sparkle while the wrist straps and bottom half are made of high-quality satin.
The overall effect is opulent and seductive. Available in UK sizes 6 to 14.
Composition:
Tulle: 100% Polyamide; Satin: 92% Polyamide, 12% Elastane

8. Cecile Cami Suspender – ANN SUMMERS
Review
Ann Summers is one of the most well-known and size-inclusive lingerie brands in the world. They are also known for saucy and eye-catching designs like this one.
The Cecile Cami is beautiful and sensual; the black mesh contrasts beautifully with the fiery red embellishment on the cups and centre of the bodysuit. The thin, adjustable straps and suspenders make this a versatile bodysuit which can go under anything (as long as it is sufficiently dark or thick material).
This is the most size-inclusive option on the list; you can get this bodysuit in sizes 6 to 26 (UK).
Composition:
49% polyester, 46% polyamide, 5% elastane

9. Sheer Tulle & Lace Corset – VICTORIA’S SECRET
Review
If there is a single brand more synonymous with raw sexuality and femininity than Victoria’s Secret, we can’t name them. VS lingerie has been the star of many a show (literally), and this sheer bodysuit is pretty enough to make every day feel like a runway show.
Nude mesh and brown lace come together to make a ‘barely there’ effect which is enchanting. Lighter than air with minimal support, this bodysuit won’t do much for larger chested women, but it’s perfect for those who like their underwear to feel like a second skin. The suspender straps are removable, too, which means this can be worn under anything at all.
While this is available from a size XS to XL, it probably won’t provide the support needed for larger breasts, so you should consider that before buying.
Composition:
100% polyamide

10. Sylvia Peep Body Featuring Swarovski Crystals – TATU COUTURE
Review
Tatu Couture is somewhat of the spiritual successor to Victoria’s Secret and Agent Provocateur; specialising in subdued, elegant sexiness, they make high-quality lingerie that lasts.
The Sylvia Peep bodysuit is a little less subtle than some of their designs, however. For a start, it uses Swarovski crystals as an embellishment! The satin middle panel may draw the eye, but it is the risqué lace cups with their ‘peep’ feature and satin edging that are the star of the show.
One can’t help but feel sensual and powerful while wearing this bodysuit. The suspender straps are detachable, too, so you can wear it with pretty much everything.
Available in sizes XS to L.
Composition:
100% Polyamide

Choosing Your Bodysuit
What is most important when choosing a bodysuit is ensuring that it suits your body type. A bodysuit with too many straps and embellishments might ruin the silhouette of a fuller figured woman, although they can enhance the shape of slimmer women.
By contrast, a very restrictive bodysuit might be uncomfortable and unnecessary for someone slim but can make a beautifully smooth and defined shape for a curvy woman.
Conclusion
Your lingerie is one of the most essential parts of your outfit. Although no-one really sees it, your underwear is what really sets your silhouette and comfort level for the day.
Each of these bodysuits with suspender straps has its own unique designs to make their wearer feel sexy and empowered. Of course, they are also designed to give you a smooth silhouette and make wearing stockings a breeze (and they do this beautifully, as well).
In the end, you should choose the bodysuit that makes you feel like the goddess you are, and in our opinion, you cannot go wrong with any of the options on this list. They are quite simply the cream of the crop when it comes to bodysuits with suspender straps built-in – so dive in!
