Jumpsuits-yay or nay?

What do you think? My husband thinks they are vile, but I like them. Thinking of getting one.

Creamy Goodness

no, unless...

you have red hair.
said hair is in a bob.
said jumpsuit is yellow.
you wear white boots with it.
you're a news reporter.
and you're name is April O'Neill.

See, I even think she looks pretty cool

dudara

TBH, I think they're fairly vile. The sooner this mini-eighties revival with bodysuits, jumpsuits, shoulder pads and distressed denim dies out, the better.

MistyCheese

That's what Creamy was saying. Unless you're April O'Neill, no.

I don't agree with that, personally. I would think unless you're April O'Neill or a child under the age of 6, no.

One of the biggest crimes against fashion ever....... really.

chocgirl

Don't like them, haven't seen one girl/woman pull the look off well yet!

jenny2hat

Dear god... a hundred times nay D=

They're a huge seller in River Island atm, it's pretty hilarious considering everyone on here is writing them off as a nay! Who is buying them?!!!

I don't own one myself but tbh, I have seen some women try them on and look really well in them. I think if you're happy and comfortable, you should just wear whatever you want, regardless of what others think.

NO

Twee.

I styled a customer in this:




Mega heels and a truck load of tumbling necklaces, thought it was nice!

How can you even see the belt when the fabric is draped over the waistband..?

LadyMayBelle

I can see it working Twee! Good one!
I like them; not for everyone and can't see me wearing a full length one (I do own an off the shoulder playsuit tho) but I think they can work for sure.

wattsusieq

I think they can work on some people. I have a couple of playsuits that look nice on.

dudara

Twee, I'm sorry but there is no way that would look good on anyone - nappy bottom comes to mind when I see that.

eth0_

I'm just thinking...what would you look like in a sudden gust of wind?

LadyMayBelle

Really Dudara? altho I do think you need to be very tall and willowy to wear them. Short peoples like me are out! and always with heels

Thanks for replies.
These are the 2 I like-



Does this make any difference to your opinions?
Although after consideration I probably won't get one because I'd buy it, try it on loads, plan to wear it out then change my mind and then by the time I get the courage to wear it they will be gone out of fashion again!

I couldn't possibly wear those two jumpsuits without a chunky belt. They are nice - as far as jumpsuits go, that is!

The picture that Twee posted has harem legs (I think) and I've never seen that saggy arse style look well on anyone - even the tall and willowy.

rosebush - the two pictures that you've posted are quite nice - they're pretty elegant looking with those lovely wide legged pants. (they remind me of coco chanel and smoking pants post-war).

Novella

Twee - I like what you posted!

I'm not mad about the flared leg jumpsuits tbph. As I said though, it's up to you and what you feel happy wearing, OP.

I have one that is more or less the same as these from Topshop and it is the nicest thing to wear.

Thumbs up to jumpsuits! I have a couple of different ones. I hate the harem pants one though, don't suit anyone

vitalic

I picked up a jumpsuit from the Limited Editions collection in Pennys for €25... will give it the first outing this weekend... Haven't seen any out yet so hopefully won't be getting too many weird looks

It's definitely one of the more bizarre trends around at the moment but sure a bit of fun!

Dudara that made me laugh aloud! OKay, I do agree thE saggy arse look is a major FAIL!!

sarasull

I just don't know! I love love love the idea of wearing one but I think I'd just feel way too look at me. I really like the ones you posted Rosebush, that's what I was thinking of too, all black so it's more subtle. I wrote a post about the dilemma and found this picture of lily Allen looking woeful



That's what I'm afraid of! But that actress looks really cool..

I think the playsuit you posted Sarasull is more wearable than a long leg one, especially like the photo of her wearing it with a blazer looks cool.

Any brave 'normal' person care to post a photo?
