Dresses for summer are like florals for spring. They fit perfectly together. Over the past few years, jumpsuits have started making a comeback little by little. This year they are here to stay! With so many fun styles, with jumpsuits, you can push the envelope a little bit more. It also means they can be worn all day without feeling uncomfortable. There are so many pros, I don’t see why we need to talk about the cons (okay, bathroom breaks might be a bit uncomfortable but…). Style Nine to Five has picked out the jumpsuits you need to get now!
Culottes
Perfect for day to night, the wide, cropped legs make this jumpsuit feel more like a dress. If you’re scared to try this trend, this is the way to start. This is the perfect replacement for the classic summer dress. Go out for patio drinks with your girlfriends, go for a bike ride, or even on a date. This jumpsuit has you covered. Soft Ponte Cropped Wide-Leg Jumpsuit, Banana Republic, $86
Denim
There’s nothing more fun than playing with the denim trend. The best thing is, just like jeans, you can find this trend in all washes and colours. Our favourite is white denim with a bit of different detailing. It could be pinstripes, ties or polka dots. Knot Tencel® Denim Jumpsuit, Forest Lily, Nordstrom, $189
Cutouts
This a versatile jumpsuit you can wear all summer long. Whether it’s a jumpsuit with cheeky cut-outs in the front which would be perfect for date night or a jumpsuit with an open back, which would be great for a day picnicking at the beach. This trend of jumpsuits shows you can have fun with your style and also be a bit flirty. Wilfred
Écoulement Jumpsuit, Tie-Back, Sleeveless Jumpsuit, $178
Ruffle Sleeves
If you still want the femininity of a dress but want the comfort of a jumpsuit, ruffle sleeves will be your savour. There are so many cute prints and colours you can find that have the ruffle tank sleeve. This gives your outfit a girly feel while still wearing some sort of pants! Ruffle Sleeve Jumpsuit, RACHEL PARCELL, Nordstrom, $204
Romperalls
We couldn’t forget the most comfortable and local type of jumpsuit – the classic romperalls by Smash + Tess. In black and olive, the romperalls are great to wear all day. Whether it’s replacing your typical lululemons to lounge around or running errands the romperalls will be your new go to. The Romperalls in Midnight Black, Smash + Tess, $119
