Teddies & Bodysuits

One piece, cut high at the hip and low at the back. A teddy holds the waist and frames the leg without any of the straps and fastenings of a set. Because it is a single garment, the fit lives or dies on torso length rather than cup size, and that is the measurement nobody checks: if you are long in the body, look for adjustable shoulder straps or stretch lace, because a short teddy pulls down at the neckline all evening. A popper gusset turns it from lingerie into something you can keep on. Wash it by hand in cold water, never wring elastane, and let it dry flat.
