When to Wear a Jumpsuit

Summer, Winter, wedding, dinner, work – when is it ok to wear a jumpsuit and are there times when you just shouldn’t? Ultimately the answer is no, there is no wrong time to wear a jumpsuit because thankfully there is a style to suit every occasion and season! So how do you know which jumpsuit is right for which setting?

Firstly, when it comes to work and a jumpsuit, it is important to look at your office culture. Is it corporate, relaxed, fashion orientated? When choosing a jumpsuit for the office, opt for a modest and sophisticated style with either a high neckline or sleeves. A two tone look that looks like a sleek top and pants combo is a great option and if you’re in a corporate office, complete your look with a tailored blazer. For those of you working in a fashion orientated office, you’ll have more freedom with your choices, but keep it classy with limited sheer or cut out panels.

As the seasons change, you’ll quickly find that the humble jumpsuit is a must have piece all year round. Whether you’re working a style with sheer pants and spaghetti straps in the summer time or you’re pairing your long sleeve jumpsuit with a jacket in the Winter – a jumpsuit will quickly become your go to style if it’s not already!

A Sense of Occasion

When it comes to formal occasions, finding the perfect outfit is always a moment of relief! For most people, when thinking of a formal occasion, ball gowns and long dresses immediately come to mind. This thought however is often followed by a rush of panic for those who don’t relish the idea of wearing a floor length gown. Never fear, this is where a structured jumpsuit will be your best friend! Deciding when to wear a jumpsuit to a formal occasion depends on the specific occasion and the style of the jumpsuit. Think structure, luxurious fabrics and elegant tailoring. Working with a structured look like the Carla Zampatti Titania Jumpsuit creates a striking silhouette with the strong shoulder pads, fitted waistline and a wide pant leg. The beauty in this look is its contemporary edge with the sheer bust panel. Sheer panels are perfect for a show stopping outfit but remember to opt for something classy and sophisticated.

Let's Talk Accessories

Accessories are the perfect way to highlight any outfit so what styles will you be wearing with your jumpsuits? If you’ve chosen a jumpsuit with a high neckline, opt for a dazzling pair of earrings instead of a necklace. This will let your jumpsuit shine and your earrings will be a sparkling statement on their own. For a jumpsuit with a plunging neckline, work with a bold necklace to complement the striking cut of your style. Don’t be afraid to play with bold, chunky jewellery styles for a more relaxed occasion but work with fine classic pieces for the office or a formal event. Finish your look with a killer pair of heels and a gorgeous jacket for the cooler months and you’ll be turning heads with every step! When to wear a jumpsuit - there's no time like the present!
