Jumpsuits are the unsung heroes of a night out. Bold, effortless, and slightly rebellious, the one pieces take the drama of a gown and splice it with the ease of trousers, creating a cool, effortless aura for the wearer to revel in.
Whether shimmering in sequins or sleek in satin, jumpsuits let you both dance and lounge without a care. The best part? They're one-and-done, solving the layering and pairing dilemma.
Hence why jumpsuits have become hot property among the stars. Dua Lipa is a fan, as is Katie Holmes, who recently sported a Jean Paul Gaultier rendition. Bella Hadid borrowed an archival Mugler number for a striking red carpet appearance back in 2018, Victoria Beckham opted for a sweetheart strapless piece and Blake Lively previously glimmered in a gold number.
