Trend Watch: One-Piece Chic – Rompers and Jumpsuits

Jumpsuits are not just for inmates and mechanics anymore, and rompers have come back from the 1970’s with a vengeance!

Seen on the runway and on celebrities from the Kardashian sisters, to Nicole Richie, Jessica Simpson, and more, the romper and jumpsuit trend has abounded in Hollywood and all across the country!

This effortless look is perfect for a casual yet chic spring and summer getup. Paired with some espadrilles, a crisp blazer, a luxe sun hat, killer shades, or a statement belt, rompers and jumpsuits can look laid-back yet girly in the hot summer sun.

A warning does come with this edition of “Trend Watch,” though! Jumpsuits and rompers are NOT for everyone. One-piece styles are easy to wear, comfortable, and a unique item in the catalog of fashion, but while they are versatile, they can be admittedly hard to pull off without ending up with a citation from the fashion police.

For a conceivably universal fit, try jumpsuits/rompers without a defined waistband, which allows you to add a belt at your own natural waistline or hips. Beware of jumpsuits with a sagging crotch – this drop-crotch look can only be worn by a very (very!) select few and can’t easily be altered. For the average woman, the most flattering fit of jumpsuit or romper is when they have looser silhouettes and stovepipe or wide-legged “pants.” Most stores sell them in S, M, L, XL standard sizing for “average” body types, but if you are extra tall or extra petite, you may opt for alterations, or a more custom fit.

They can be a “win,” though if worn properly – and they can be done in all seasons with the proper accessories, great styling, and the right fit. (Please note: catsuits – the tightest version of the “one piece wonder” – should be saved for superheroes and Halloween costumes. Just an FYI.)

Below you’ll find inspirations from Kourtney Kardashian, some looks off the runway, and, also, Maniac’s suggestions for some rompers/jumpsuits and fab accompanying accessories for summer. Enjoy!
