Perfect alternative

Whoever penned the rule that you had to wear a dress to feel ‘dressed up’ has clearly never came across a great jumpsuit.

For us, it’s the perfect alternative and a fabulous option for many who simply don’t feel like themselves in a dress. Many would argue that jumpsuits are highly impractical, but puffy gowns with layers of tulle or heavy sequins can also present challenges.

No doubt one of the chicest options you can wear this festive period, a jumpsuit can easily take you from the office to party, while some more decorative options designed from rich fabric can rival any elegant dress you might have in your wardrobe.

If you’re a fan of a flared leg and pulled-in waistline, then the seventies silhouette will be right up your street. And if you want to accent your features, then we suggest adding a belt to your jumpsuit. As for fabric, we love the feel of of velvet and silk for the evening.
