Azzedine Alaia and Donna Karan helped make the bodysuit a defining item of eighties fashion for both men and women.
For example, the bodysuit worn by actress Julie Newmar as Catwoman in the Batman TV series of the 1960s is constructed of black Lurex .
The beaded fulle spider-web bodysuit, designed by Lebanese designer Zuhair Murad, that was worn by Najwa in the video clip, was later also worn by Jennifer Lopez, in her music video, "On the Floor."
