7 Rihanna-Inspired Lace Bodysuits To Add To Cart

Of course, much like the Midas touch, anything Rihanna does or wears turns to gold with searches for lace catsuits spiking +191% in just two hours after the cover’s release.

Of course, Rihanna’s influence over fashion certainly is no surprise. But what you may not know is how rich of a history the catsuit actually has.

From Balenciaga to Mugler, the catsuit silhouette is a tried and tested staple in the ateliers of our favourite luxury fashion houses. The high-octane, and often sexualised, one piece is a symbol of the avant-garde, theatrical and über-feminine styles of the late 80s in 90s.

Perhaps it was Kylie afterall who set the precedent for the lace catsuit to become a staple in a new mother’s wardrobe.

Either way, you can be assured that the lace catsuit is here to stay.
