A favorite outfit of celebrities and models, including Kim Kardashian, Bella Hadid, and Miley Cyrus, the catsuit invokes powerful, feminine allure without feeling overly revealing. As designers reimagine many fashion staples from the ‘90s and 2000s eras such as low-rise pants, belly chains, and neon colors, the catsuit is finally returning to the spotlight with a contemporary twist. For example, Kardashian recently hosted Saturday Night Live in a stunning hot pink catsuit that was a fresh take on a style that has a long history among female entertainers. 

A popular wardrobe staple of Hollywood starlets, actress Grace Kelly wore an all-black catsuit in the Alfred Hitchcock film To Catch a Thief, which inspired the styling for numerous female characters in future films, particularly in the superhero genre. Throughout the ‘90s and 2000s, film series such as Batman, The Matrix, and Kill Bill all featured important female characters who donned the catsuit as an expression of femininity and strength. Today, notable female entertainers show how catsuits are a versatile fashion statement that empowers women. From monochromatic styles to bold prints, designers like Richard Quinn, Prada, and Balenciaga are reimagining the catsuit in fresh, exciting ways.
