Leg Avenue Industrial Net Racer Neck Backless Bodystocking

A bodystocking covers the whole story from shoulder to toe, and this one leaves the back out of it entirely. Racer neck at the front, open across the back, industrial net throughout, in black or in red. It is one piece that behaves like a full outfit.

Bodystockings go on best from the feet up, gathering the fabric as you go rather than stretching it from the shoulders. The racer neck keeps the straps clear of a shoulder line, so this layers cleanly under an open shirt, a slip dress or a jacket, and the open back means nothing shows through when you take the jacket off. Hand wash in cool water, lay flat to dry, and never wring it, because that is what breaks the weave.

Most bodystockings are fine mesh that disappears in photographs and under clothing. The industrial weave holds a visible grid, and a backless cut is a far more interesting shape than the usual closed body.
