I Was a Diehard Dress Person Until I Saw These Party Jumpsuits
If you're anything like us (which, seeing as you've found yourself here, we assume you are), you'll already be giving your party attire some thought. Mid-October means we're on the festive peripheral, and considering more and more businesses are opting to host their Christmas bashes in November, that makes it A-OK to start discussing potential outfits, right? Right.
Of course, there are always dresses to fall back on—whether they're black, sequinned, velvet or satin. Frocks provide us with a fail-safe way of looking fancy with next to no effort. However, we're here to tell you they're not the only one-and-done option. If you're keen to try something a little different this party season, jumpsuits are where it's at. Requiring the same level of styling effort as a dress but with all the cool kudos usually associated with suiting, jumpsuits really are the fashion trailblazer's all-in-one of choice.
The options are endless: backless, halter-neck, wide leg, tapered, shiny, sparkly, minimal, extra—we guarantee there's one to suit you, whatever your vibe or budget. We have to warn you, though: These pieces are best tried out before you make your final judgement. There's something really weird about looking at a jumpsuit on a rack rather than on a model or yourself. However, don't overlook their potential. Scroll below and to find our expert edit of the best party jumpsuits. In fact, you may never want to wear a dress again…
