leotard
Gymnast's tight garment
A leotard is a stretchy, form-fitting one-piece garment covering the torso, typically sleeveless with leg openings at the hip.
Dancers, gymnasts, and acrobats wear leotards for freedom of movement.
The garment takes its name from Jules Léotard, a 19th-century French trapeze artist.
She pulled on her leotard before ballet class.
