How to Wear a Jumpsuit to Work

Choose Appropriate Colours

Neutral is the way to go for a starting point at the office. Take a cue from Deepika Padukone’s beige collared jumpsuit that is both understated and elegant for the office. 

You can pair it with a chunky golden neckpiece to keep the look minimal. Summer may let you opt for seasonal colours but a safer option for work would be to stick to shades of black, white or brown. 

Incorporate Small Patterns

Patterned jumpsuits can be very pretty and flattering as long as they’re not bold or very bright when it comes to formal jumpsuits for women.  The trick is to keep the patterns small or dainty that allows you to change your style with accessories. 

Although, you want to keep your accessories plain and simple so you don’t take too much away from the outfit. 

Add Another Garment

If the dress code in your office is formal or restricted, adding a blazer to your sleeveless jumpsuit can help elevate your look by several notches. You could also add a small, smart belt to give more definition to your waist and keep things classy.  

Another great way to style your sleeveless jumpsuit is to layer it over a shirt, smart blouse or turtleneck. Jumpsuits also look chic with long vests, not to mention they have the added benefit of keeping you warm in the chilly months. 

Again, adding a stylish purse or clutch, minimal jewellery and heels are necessary. 

Minimalism Works Wonders 

Keep things simple by opting for a black jumpsuit, then add statement earrings and a necklace. Put on a pair of strappy heels and carry a comfy bag. That’s it! It works every time and is not too distracting especially when you have a lot on your mind!

Jumpsuits to Avoid at Work

As much you  love them, there are a few jumpsuits you can steer clear of in the work environment and keep for night outs or weekends:

• A denim jumpsuit
• Strapless jumpsuits
• Jumpsuits with ruffles and feathers
• Low-cut Jumpsuits 
• Slouchy jumpsuits

Jumpsuits are undoubtedly easy-going and infinitely versatile. You can just throw one on and still look put together. If you’ve resisted having one in your closet, we hope we’ve changed your mind. 

Things to keep in mind to choose an ideal jumpsuit for work is to stick to light, breathable fabrics that allow movement and has a wide cut that doesn’t stick to the body, especially when styling formal jumpsuits for plus size.

Thanks to the pandemic, the office environment has undergone a change and fashion is no longer restricted to shirts, giving women more freedom with what they wear to work. The jumpsuit comes in a variety of silhouettes to accommodate many workplace restrictions but when in doubt, just throw on a jumpsuit with a blazer which is great for a smart casual look as well as a business lunch. Plan your accessories so you can swiftly jump(suit) up with the perfect day to evening look. 

Get ready to look fab—the jumpsuit way!
