leotard

One-piece garment that covers the torso

A leotard is a unisex skin-tight one-piece garment that covers the body from the crotch to the shoulder. The garment was made famous by the French acrobatic performer Jules Léotard (1838–1870). There are sleeveless, short-sleeved, and long-sleeved leotards. A variation is the unitard, which also covers the legs.
