body stocking

Full-coverage hosiery garment

A body stocking is a one-piece, form-fitting garment that covers the torso and often the legs and arms, made from sheer or stretchy material like nylon or spandex.

It functions as hosiery for the whole body, worn as lingerie, dancewear, or under costumes: She wore a nude body stocking beneath the sheer dress.
