Yes, if the bodysuit opens at the crotch. NULAYER's has a hook-and-eye closure there, the same hooks as a bra band, so you unhook, go, and hook it back without pulling the bodysuit down or undressing.

Look forA closure at the crotch, not a sewn-shut panel. Ours is hook-and-eye; some brands use snaps, some have nothing.PracticeHook and unhook it once at home, standing, before the event. The first time in a stall should not be the first time.StrapsSet them so the crotch sits where it should; a strap set too short pulls the closure up and makes it fiddly.Don'tDon't buy a bodysuit for a long wedding without knowing how the crotch opens. That is the whole evening.

How the NULAYER closure works

The crotch of both cuts, thong and mid-thigh, closes with hooks and eyes, the same hardware as a bra band. To use the bathroom you reach down, unhook, and the front panel comes free. Afterwards you hook it back. The straps stay on your shoulders, the bodysuit stays on, and your dress stays on.

It is a two-hand motion the first time and a quick one after that. Bra hooks are something most women have fastened behind their back for years; at the front, in daylight, they are easy.

What to check on any shapewear bodysuit

Bodysuits fall into three groups. Some have no opening, which means undressing every time. Some have an overlapping panel with no fastener, which works until the panel shifts. Some have a fastener: hooks, snaps or a short zip. A fastener you can feel with one finger is the one to want for a wedding, a flight or a long dinner.

The second thing to check is compression. A maximum-compression garment is hard to get back into position in a small stall. NULAYER is medium-firm, which is part of why the bathroom trip is short: the fabric goes back where it was.

Questions people ask

Do you have to take the bodysuit off to use the bathroom?

No. Unhook the hook-and-eye closure at the crotch, and hook it back afterwards. The straps and the rest of the bodysuit stay in place.

Is a hook-and-eye closure comfortable to sit on?

It sits flat, like the closure on a bra band, and the panel around it is the same bonded fabric as the rest. Most wearers forget it is there once the bodysuit is on.

Which cut is easier in a bathroom, thong or mid-thigh?

Both open the same way at the crotch. The thong has less fabric to manage; the mid-thigh covers the upper thigh and takes a second longer to settle back.
