While styles fluctuate and trends change, one staple that will always be in is denim. From your favorite pair of jeans to that jean jacket you reach for time and time again, denim is one of the most versatile and most worn fabrics out there. And recently, denim jumpsuits have been taking over the spotlight. The trend certainly isn’t anything new, as the one piece has been around for quite some time, but they seem to be having a major moment lately, with celebrities like Heidi Klum and Kelly Clarkson wearing them recently. Here, we get into why they are trending, how to style one and the best denim jumpsuits to wear.
Why are denim jumpsuits popular?
As mentioned above, denim has been in style for decades. When you don’t know what to wear, you can always count on that pair of jeans that makes you feel good and a solid tee paired with a belt—chic and easy. Need a topper for your outfit? A jean jacket almost always will do the trick. It’s such a versatile material that can be dressed up or down, worn day or night and can put together countless looks. That said, it makes sense why the fabric is now offered in trendy pieces like denim heels, bags and—one of our favorites—denim jumpsuits.
Denim jumpsuits refer to a one-piece style ensemble with pants on the bottom connected to the top portion. The styles vary; they come in flared, cinched-waist, long sleeve and just about everything in between, meaning you’ll find one that works for you. One of the best benefits to wearing a denim jumpsuit is that it’s so easy to put on and head out the door—you don’t have to worry about coordinating a top to a bottom.
How to style a denim jumpsuit
One of the best things about denim as a whole, including denim jumpsuits, is that they can be dressed up or down depending on the occasion. One of our favorite ways to wear the one piece for a dressier occasion or nighttime outing is to wear it with a pair of sleek heels. The style looks great with stilettos, kitten heels, pumps and block heels alike, so simply choose the most comfortable pair and you’re set. You can dress it up even further with a pair of chunky earrings and some chunky bracelet cuffs (which are another huge trend at the moment).
For a more casual or daytime look, denim jumpsuits look so chic with a pair of fashion sneakers. Wearing a pair of white sneakers, like Kelly Clarkson is wearing above, will keep you stylish and comfortable all day long. Belts are also a great way to accessorize a casual outfit and will give your denim jumpsuit more of a boho-chic look, especially if wearing a chunky, woven belt.
During the warmer months, denim jumpsuits work well with a pair of cute sandals for a casual-chic outfit.
