I have always sworn by by a jumpsuit. Incredibly flattering, impressively comfortable and undoubtedly stylish, it’s hard not to love this one-piece.
However, being shorter in stature (under 5’3”), it’s not always easy to find a style that fits - it’s either too long on the torso, baggy at the ankles or worst of all, a combination of both.
Thankfully, petite clothing ranges have come on leaps and bounds in recent years so we can get our hands on this must-have wardrobe staple in a size that actually fits our bodies.
Requiring minimal effort in the mornings and being an underrated option for those transitional weather days (you can never be too sure of how long the sun will stay out for), the humble jumpsuit is a convincing buy, and luckily there are endless styles available.
For keeping cool in the warmer weather, there’s nothing better than a relaxed-fitting romper made from lightweight materials such as linen and cotton. It’s also the perfect way to add a splash of colour and interesting detailing to your wardrobe as there are some seriously fun prints out there this season that will pair perfectly with a summer sandal.
As we head into colder months, a denim jumpsuit or boilersuit will be your best friend - the long sleeves and thicker material will keep you toasty, and with a simple trench coat, white trainer and tote bag you’ll have a 9-5-appropriate office outfit in seconds.
Of course, jumpsuits aren’t just for casual wearing - paired with a blazer, heels and a chic cross body bag, you can elevate your look and transform it into the perfect evening, wedding guest or even bridal ensemble.
We’ve put together our favourite jumpsuits for this season that feature everything from brightly coloured halter neck styles to timeless and elegant pieces that are the perfect alternative to a midi or maxi dress.
Best of all? They’re all specifically tailored to fit petite women and have shorter leg lengths and sleeves. Happy shopping!
