These Are The Best Ways To Feel Stylish In A Jumpsuit
Considering that Crocs are blowing up in fashion right now, it's become very clear that 2022 is presenting some outlandish trends. In addition to the controversial Crocs resurgence, some other prominent 2022 fashion trends consist of shiny, glittery looks and beaded details, platform shoes, bold neon hues, sexy crop tops, as well as peek-a-boo style cut-outs, lots of texture, and super short skirts (via InStyle).
Another significant trend is jumpsuits, which are perfect for people who like a cohesive look but aren't really into dresses. Jumpsuits have become so popular that some people have even decided to choose a bridal jumpsuit for a modern look instead of a traditional gown for their wedding outfit. With a jumpsuit, you get the best of both worlds because you'll be wearing a one-piece, but you'll still get a pants-style effect instead of a dress. Over 12 million posts popped up when we searched #jumpsuit on Instagram, ranging from a sophisticated black and white look to a dauntless patchwork-inspired design. There are many ways to style a jumpsuit depending on your one-of-a-kind style, so we love wearing these fashionable garments.
How to rock a jumpsuit
One convenient aspect of wearing jumpsuits is that they're appropriate for various events, occasions, and activities. For instance, low-key, loosely-fitted options are great for everyday responsibilities, while fancier jumpsuits with more fitted structures and sophisticated hues, textures, and patterns are better suited for occasions like work events or exciting occasions, per Top.Trends.Guides. You can experiment with jumpsuits whether it's hot or cold outside, as long as you pick ones that feature the best details for the weather, such as sleeveless options for hot summer days or heavier materials for colder months. Styling them with your favorite accessories allows both them and the jumpsuit to shine, too!
In addition to requiring such little styling due to their one-piece designs, jumpsuits can be super practical if they have large pockets (via Marie Claire); that helpful detail can help you hold onto your belongings while traveling or on nights out with friends. Or, if you're going for a sexy look for your next date night, a strapless jumpsuit will keep you feeling comfortable while showing some skin, while a leathery look will give off a commanding dominatrix vibe.
So, is your new jumpsuit going to be casual, fancy, practical, or seductive — or will you decide to buy one of each?
Go for an edgy look
Jumpsuits are an excellent option for anyone who enjoys dressing edgy, especially if you're open to layering. If you're going for an edgy look, it would be a good idea to start with a black jumpsuit as black pieces are typically a go-to for any edgy outfit. From there, you should consider adding a flannel over the jumpsuit for a grunge look; if the flannel is oversized or distressed in any way — even better. Or, if you're going for more of a punk look, try adding a leather jacket, especially if it features studs or spikes.
The Something to Behold Black Jumpsuit features ultra-slim straps and shows off your back with its open design. You can purchase it from Lulus for $60, where it has between four and five stars. Thanks to this piece's all-black hue and flattering fit, it's suitable for any look we can think of, including edgy styles. To make this jumpsuit — or any other black jumpsuit look grunge, wear it under a flannel top or shacket like the Asos Design Oversized Shacket in Mono Check, which is available at Asos for less than $20 and has 4.2 stars. Or, if you'd rather rock an intense, punk-inspired look, try wearing something like the faux leather black Biker Jacket over your jumpsuit. This particular jacket sells at H&M for around $25 and has over four stars.
Have fun with patterns
Patterns are so much fun on any garment, whether that be a top, dress, skirt, or, of course, a jumpsuit. There are a plethora of patterns to explore, and if you're looking for any inspiration regarding what jumpsuits look like with patterns, try searching #jumpsuitpattern on Instagram.

Dress up a solid color jumpsuit with statement jewelry
Solid color jumpsuits are lovely by themselves for minimalistic, clean looks, but you can easily dress them up for a bolder style with statement accessories. Stylishly incorporating chunky jewelry into your ensemble will elevate the monochromatic jumpsuit and help your outfit stand out. So why not buy a jumpsuit in your favorite color and add some statement accessories or purchase some bold jewelry to dress up the solid color jumpsuits in your closet?
