That looks amazing. Is it the Wolford one that TY recommended or is it Chanel and I'm just embarrassing myself?View attachment 3797591
Man the bodysuit is comfortable. I feel sucked in. I don't think this white one can be worn as an outer layer. It would be great under other tops. I think I'll look into the turtleneck versions ! He he.

You look even skinnier. I agree that it looks like an under layer. I wouldn't wear it as a blouse. It might help with itchiness problems.
love, love this on you. terrific undepinning. question though - I used to wear woldford body suits all the time, i was working then and wore dresses and skirts with tights and they were comfortable and terrific. now that i don't work and wear rights I wonder is they are comfortable where they snap. or do they snap? and are they g string? would love to hear your opinion. tyView attachment 3797591

Pbp, I totally missed your post the first time on the dresses. I love them. I think the silhouette is classic and I like how you paired them.
Would love to see how the Mcqueen pants looked !
This is Wolford argcdg and it's bodysuit is comfortable. It has two snaps below. This was the full coverage down below. They do have g string ones but I am not a fan of them bc I don't find them comfortable. Sadly the only ones I found of the sleeveless t neck are string. Gotta keep looking. Suspect the black tops could be more useful as outerwear. This top was on sale in white on the wolford site so I figured I'd give it a shot. I chose medium and I wear 40 chanel jackets usually. Thanks for the tip Tanker ! I shall have to get more !

. Thanks for the tip Tanker ! I shall have to get more ! I prefer the wolford tops without the bodysuit bottom. I generally layer them under sleeveless dresses in winter and just tuck them into my tights. I find that much more comfortable. I do feel like they aren't terribly luxe. I have been meaning to try some of their nicer merino versions. Have you ever tried them?

Will do. The pants need to be hemmed and taken in at the waist. I'll post when I get them back. I'm going to try the grey chanel ones but if I recall they are much wider legs. I kind of just said no looking at them on the hanger.
Will have to see the fit of the ground control pants. I tried the striped cuba ones and the waist was crazy and they just looked silly on me. I think Ari got them and they looked better on her. I know she has the long green ones.
I'll have to try the non bodysuit tops too. Stretchy tops have a tendency to roll up on me which is annoying lol. I also like hanro for underpinnings. Very soft

Yes if you don't wear tights the body suits are probably better for you. Hanro is nice. Their sleepwear is heavenly.
The Cuba pants were very stylized. Ari (with her great figure) is probably one of the few people who could pull them off. I generally do better with slim pants.
The 70s theme is everywhere. I received a saks shoe catalog yesterday and it's full of velvet. And an email came from net a porter with 70s themed items this morning. Love it all.

I used to buy all wolford - body suits, tops and tights. They last forever. Since mine can be considered vintage they are very soft and comfy feeling. I am afraid of the snaps - being where they are and not having the extra layering of cloth if i don't wear tights. The full back is not for me as i have a phobia about panty lines and it would still have the snap issue. I think with you buying the tops without the bottom is what i can going to try to do. I am in a tropical climate in the winter so my lovely velvet delux tights hang out in a drawer that rarely sees the light of day.

Right?
A sleek smooth line
And wow you have the figure for it
You couldn't wear this as an outer layer with maybe with strands of pearls ?
Well you know I'm all in fur bodysuits, but that not withstanding- you look incredible-
The Chanel models have nothing on you [emoji93]
Great for layering.View attachment 3797591

I would love to get one with a princesse type/deeper décolleté for my cream suit!
I think I would like a pretty silk camisole with that suit. Something in a warm beige that picks up on the gold trim? The texture of the silk next to the wool would be a nice contrast. La perla maybe?

My pleasure
I couldn't do without my bodysuits !
Try Fogal of Switzerland
They make exquisite hosiery and lovely body suits in a cotton blend
Very soft and breath able for summer
Wolford does last forever [emoji94]
I'm running over to check out the white long sleeve on sale on their site- after your photo here I'm sure they are now sold out!
I also find the tops tend to roll at the waist you get the bodysuit type but just the top.
That said Wolford has other tops that are lovely and not meant to tuck it.
But imo nothing beats a bodysuit for a base layer-
They do make the bodysuits with a deep rounded sweep neck- almost off shoulder but not off shoulder
It's a fabulous way to showcase jewelry as well
I've worn a similar sweep princess neck bodysuit with a full evening satin skirt -
