VELVET MODERN TANK BODYSUIT | BLACK001

Tops

The verdict

Buy if you want a dressy bodysuit that elevates basics; the velvet justifies the mid-tier price.

Fit

Bodysuits are cut close through the torso to anchor smoothly under bottoms. Expect a snug fit; Good American bodysuits typically run true to size or slightly generous in stretch.

Quality

Velvet construction is durable at this price point for occasional wear; seaming and closure construction are typical of the brand's contemporary line.

Price check

At $68, this sits at the mid-range for this brand. The velvet detail justifies the markup over plain jersey versions.

Best for

Night out or layered under sheer pieces when you need a polished bodysuit base.

Care

Velvet will crush under aggressive washing; hand wash or use a delicate cycle to preserve the nap.

Fit check: Good American

Varies by line

Owners say the denim fits true to size despite looking tiny off the body, while the sweats and outerwear are cut oversized.

Across independent reviews the denim story is consistent: the jeans look alarmingly small off the body but stretch to fit true to size once on — one long-form reviewer's advice is to "order your true size rather than sizing down." The recurring caveat is Good American's combined size bands (e.g. 6-12): a Yahoo tester at the top of her band found the Always Fits pair "snug, especially through the hips and thighs," and reviewers who sit between sizes report some styles running slightly small. The sweats line reads the opposite way — pieces are deliberately roomy, with "extra fabric in the arms to create an oversized vibe," and owners size down when they want a closer fit. Fit reports on jackets and the shacket are mixed, so per-style checks matter most outside the denim.

Sizing advice: Take your usual size in the jeans even though they look tiny off the body (size up only if you're at the top of a combined size band); in the sweats, size down for anything other than an oversized fit.

What owners report about Good American tops

Independent coverage of Good American's tops line centers almost entirely on its bodysuits. A Forbes fashion-team roundup picked the ribbed cotton bodysuit for its soft, breathable construction and notes shoppers say it runs true to size, while a style blogger calls the jersey tank bodysuit one of her most-worn pieces from the brand, reporting that the smoothing stretch fabric isn't see-through and works as an all-day base layer. A multi-person team try-on likewise reported the bodysuits fitting true to size in reviewers' usual sizes. Reports on the rest of the large tops range are scarce, and long-term durability feedback is essentially absent.

Strengths
The compressive, smoothing bodysuits draw consistent praise from reviewers as comfortable, opaque base layers that don't need constant re-tucking.
Watch out for
Third-party reporting barely extends beyond the bodysuits, so most of the wider tops range is unvetted and there is little published feedback on how the fabrics hold up over time.
Sizing
Bodysuit reviewers consistently report ordering their usual size and finding the fit true to size.
