10 best leotards and unitards to stay trendy in 2022

In 2020, we entered the realm of athleisure and never looked back. Why would we?

We integrated yoga pants into our morning commutes, tennis shoes into our professional attire and sports bras into our high-end fashion looks. If you’re anything like us, you’ll take those options over tight business pants and uncomfortable heels any day.

The rise of athleisure also brought us the matching work out set.

It seemed as if nothing could top a monochromatic set, but then the unitard entered the chat.

The unitard — or formerly known as the leotard — is essentially a connected matching set and kind of like a bodysuit. It’s one-piece that slides on and off with ease providing you with optimal comfort and pristine athleisure style.

Below, you can find the unitards and leotards we’re currently obsessing over in 2022.
