tight-fitting
Like a leotard
Tight-fitting describes clothing or other items that fit closely against the body or surface, with little or no looseness: tight-fitting jeans, a tight-fitting lid.
The term emphasizes snugness without necessarily implying discomfort—unlike "too tight," which suggests excess.
