Fall 2008 Fashion Week Trend: The Jumpsuit

Style tip?  The head-to-toe monochromatic look of the jumpsuit visually elongates the body, making you look taller. 

What do you think?  Would you wear a jumpsuit?  And if so, with what?  Share your thoughts in the comments!

    I love this entire fall 2008 trend posts! Hmm… I wouldn’t wear a jumpsuit because I have a lean figure, so I’d get lost in it.

    Keep up the awesome work =D

    Glad you’re loving the trend posts, Crystal! We’ve been doing the show review posts for years, but we wanted to do something a little different (and more useful) this time around.

    And it’s ok–I wouldn’t wear a jumpsuit either :)

    I wouldn’t wear a jumpsuit because I am curvy. Although I agree with Crystal, it does not look good on lean figures either. On curvy it just looks tacky.

    Yeah, the jumpsuit is really hard to wear, no matter what your figure type. It’s always seemed somewhat costume-y to me, but some people can pull it off.

    I never liked the whole “getting undressed to use the bathroom” element of jumpsuits.

    Ah, practicality. You’re a true Omiru-ite!

    On the contrary, what you loose in practicality (going to the bathroom) you gain on the other side : Ever wondered what to wear in the morning? Bang jumpsuit on, a pair of shoes and you’re out the door.
