Catsuits for women can be found in new and pre-owned condition on eBay at affordable prices where you can find just the outfit you are looking for.
What materials are catsuits made from?The first catsuits surfaced around 1960 and were occasionally worn by women as fashion outfits throughout the 1960s to the 1990s. They became disco and aerobics costumes during the 1970s. Sexy catsuits, unitards, and bodysuits or other similar costumes are also worn by dancers, circus performers, pop singers, and magicians. Though at times worn by men, these commonly black costumes are manufactured mainly for women.
The name for the catsuit costume originated from the Japanese word "Zentai." It is a one-piece, form-fitting, zippered bodysuit for women, often in red or black, that covers the torso and the legs. These costume-like bodysuits are most often made of stretchable material, such as:
- Lycra
- Chiffon
- Spandex
- Latex
- Velour
- Lace
- Leather polyester
- Sheer mesh
These slightly risque onesies are sleek-looking costumes that draw attention and have been used for years in theater. In fact, catsuits of all varieties are exceptionally form-fitting. The common red and black color patterns lend to the sleekness of the suit. Some features of catsuits may include:
- Two-way zipper
- Racerback or pullover style
- Handwashable/Machine-washable
- Stretcy fit for comfort
Since this bodysuit boasts such an all-in-one flow, it is used for sleek and sexy characters and acts. Most times they are long-sleeved and zipped or buttoned from navel to neck, sometimes in the front and sometimes in the back. However, there are some other variations that are short-sleeved or radically accessorized to include fetish-like sexual apparati such as D-rings and chains. The overall design and fabric composition of slinky, clingy fabrics make it one of the filmmakers' costumes of choice for stealthy characters. The red or black color themes relayed a sadistic or masochistic aura.
