CC promises this trend is not as horrifying as it sounds!Perhaps it's the recent superhero obsession, but it seems as if nearly every designer sent at least one union suit down the runway, so this is not a mere blip on the radar!
Even the best-dressed celebs are jumping for this trend!!

I really want a jumpsuit. I like the sequined one,it looks like the one from Fiest's 1234 video
Great Post... thanks for pointing out how many jumpsuits are in right now. Loving the Betsey Johnson ones, the sequin one and Blake Lively looks amazing in hers.
You truly never fail to impress!
I personally LOVE jumpsuits, rompers, whatever they're called they are awesome! The Anna Sui & Chloe ones here need to get themselves into my closet like NOW :)
I've been wishing a jsuit since this trend come back in S/S 08, but I never found "The One" :(
Even Enc from OM gave up ;)
Well let's see if the new season brings something to me.
Thanks for posting about.
xoxo
I can't choose, some of them I couldn't wear, but there's a few I'd like to have..the Marchesa for a start. The Jaeger also appealed. Very nice selection you've posted.
Forgot to mention I came by way of Hunter Glory's site.
I'm loving the jumpsuit trend! Can't wait to find the perfect one for myself <3
lovely pictures!
seriously adore the outfit of the 4th photo.
the shoes match perfectly!
whoe thanks for the inspiration!
They're scary!! There are so many different styles, I think the easiest to pull off are short ones though. I love the Nicole Miller jumpsuit
I can't help it! Some of them reminds me the Ghostbusters costume :S ha ha ha!
But i recognize Blake looks beautiful!
Un beso!!
Simone
i wasn't sure about jumpsuit..but..i really like the short grey and black one thanks
You are right, it sound horrifying, but some of the styles are beautiful. The tuxedo from Marchesa is awesome!
ah, jumpsuits! I love them but it's hard to find one that looks great and suits your body without breaking the bank! great post!
i really can't decide whether or not i love it or not...
they seem uber comfortable though!
there are definitely a few i would never don. haha.
I'm not a big fan of the jumpsuit thing.. I'm way too short to pull it off..but that Dolce one is pretty fab..!
The space print romper is so fun!
Oh, I've definitely seen this trend!
Sadly, it doesn't look very good on me.
definitley some jump start jump suits!
J is for Jubilant!
I like this look on ceratin people. Blake looks AHMAZING! I haven't tried on a jumper in years. I don't know how they'd look on me! =/ Heheh.
Why do you do this to me!!
Now I'm so desperate to get a JUMPSUIT!!
I just adore jumpsuits -- I always wanted a crazy silver sci-fi one but I don't know where I'd ever wear it.
I like the giant ruffles at the bottom of one!
yaiiiiii! they're back! We would like to borrow your picts later on... we want to sell this amazing vintage jumpsuit that we have, we'll let you know...
Love,
the.ramonas
Wow, that's quite the collection of jumpsuits! I like rompers most of the time, but they look like they're give mad wedgies 24/7. Just me? okay...
oh ya, about my outift bubbles. I just use paint to draw little pics (clouds, speach bubbles, hearts, ect) and then type the list inside. I match the backround of the shape to my blog's backround to get the illuuuusion of a floating image. Just to do something different than a boring ol' list.
I've never really been a fan of jumpsuits...
I love the Betsey Johnson jumpsuits, although I think jumpsuits make me look very young!
Hi couture carrie-a really great post, as you've picked out the best here!! I love Betsey Johnsons ones and Marchesa, plus Blake looks really nice in hers!!
I wanted to tell you my fave's, but god, I love them al!
Who won't jump for this trend?
I'm not the biggest fan of this trend, though I have been looking for a one that would be quite close to skin and sexy.

I'm really into the longer length jumpsuits, the lace one is amazing. Probably impractical though, until I become famous!
maggie's stella mccartney jumpsuit at the batman premier mad me so happy! and blake's is so summery i love it, although it probably only works on girls (like her) who have miles of legs!!
I really do love jumpsuits! You have chosen great photos that show the true elegance of jumpsuits! I especially love the Paul & Joe Sister Kenya silk playsuit!
Great post xxx
thanks for the lovely comment on my blog. Oh those jumpsuits are awesome, i couldn't keep track on which ones i like!
OH DEAR...I recently went to a vintage shop and they had one but it was too big on me...I'm still disappointed!
great post, love jumpsuits, love the Naeem Khan, Betsey Johnson, Sonia Rikyel--love the whole 80s thing. till searching for the perfect one :)
xx
The jumpsuit it´s a very difficult suit. It makes a very short legs... but I want one!
Zepequeña.
Ah I have always wanted a floral jumpsuit!!! But they are all so pricey! :(
xyreeey :)

Worst thing about jumpsuits... Difficult "meetings in the ladies rooms"... forget about "being back real soon"... LOL
I love the short jumpsuits, but I still haven't bought one... But I'm going to Greece next week, so maybe I should get one for the trip:)
oh goodness. i love jumpsuits so much, and you've just presented such a delectable assortment
I wish I could wear a jumpsuit, haha!
xx
