2009's Celebrity trend: The Jumpsuit!



One of the hottest trends on the 2009 catwalk was the Jumpsuit and all our favourite celebrities seem to be loving this new trend so it's official....

Your wardrobe simply won't be complete without a JUMPSUIT or all-in-one for next season's Spring/ Summer Collection, as the London catwalks confirmed!

Gwyneth Paltrow rocks the trend

Almost every London designer championed them, from thigh slashed, fluid and sexy at Marios Schwab to the eighties versions at Topshop Unique, in pale-wash denim or covered in neon hearts - accessorised with the season’s other must-have, the Bananarama inspired headscarf.

I once thought that it took a strongly fashion-forward woman to wear a jumpsuit, but upon further consideration, I think it just takes a smart one!

Helena Christensen flaunts her figure


Yes, some all-in-ones make a big statement, but there are so many subtle styles available that it’s possible to find a suit for any situation.

They would look just as fab and sexy as a dress or skinny jeans with heels would. Black jumpsuits give the body a contoured silhouette while making you look tall and slim.

The simplicity of black jumpsuits gives you more options to go all out with accessories. Add long necklaces and wide or skinny belts to your jumpsuit ensemble and pair it with an eye-catching clutch and you’ll be ready to go anywhere.

Runway model working the trend


The good news is, whatever your style you can all wear the jumpsuit next season. Wide leg strapless styles are the most flattering for summer, or for the more courageous, try a lean mean boyish cut with spiky heels and a blazer.

A great example comes from the recent queen of the all-in-one, Rihanna (below). She was spotted last month in Los Angeles wearing Stella McCartney’s ultra girly ruffled jumpsuit with an oversized pair of hoop earrings and YSL’s Biarritz Sandals.

Though the jumpsuit is expected to replace a gown on the red carpets (makes me go hmm…)

Selma or Penelope?

What do you all think about that? I love the look, but for it to replace gowns, I think that’s a LITTLE too far fetched!
