Fashion for someone is a way of expressing themselves through exuberant outfits. For some it’s just a mere part of life where looking comfortable plays the most important role. Lucinda Chambers, the fashion director for British Vogue who spend around 36 years styling notable figures across the globe always emphasizes on the fact that you don’t have to be a fashion enthusiast or a full fledged person who’s involved with the daily intricacies of fashion business, all you need to understand is that what makes you look best, what makes you feel best once you wear an outfit, he colors that you feel suit you the most , and then you are good to go.

So today we’ll pick two outfits which are amazingly beautiful, worn largely by millions of women all over and we’ll share what could be the ways that could make them look more beautiful in these outfits, they are nothing but Co-ord sets and jumpsuits.

History of Jumpsuit:

Jumpsuit’s creation is dated from somewhat early 20th century in 1919 when it was predominantly made for the parachuters to jump from the height. The boiler suit was made loosely fitted to make it more utilitarian. It was not only used by the parachuters, men who worked in the coal mine also wore same attire. Women adopted jumpsuit in the second world war when they started working as munition workers. It was designed in a more form fitting way with bloomer like legs to fit better in the women’s body. It was of it’s slimmer cut that that jumpsuit was the first of the workwear garments to gain a fashionable status. In the 1930’s fashion designer Elia Schiaparelli started making jumpsuit for women to wear it as a fashionable attire. The sport style of the American designer Vera Maxwell found it’s way in the streets in the mid 1940’s but was still considered as a novelty. While women started wearing jumpsuits full fledgedly in the second world war, once the war was over around the 1950’s some American designers like Bonnie Cashin were experimenting to make jumpsuits kind of a party wear by creating evening jumpsuits. But it took another decade for women to accept it as a full fledged day and night wear. Jumpsuit made it’s official entry in the fashion scene in the American Vogue issue in 1964, where Irving Penn’s photography of Guy Laroche in brown wool jersey one piece paired with seal skin jacket made a bold fashion statement a month later. The late 1960’s and 70’s saw the emergence of jumpsuit in the most robust way where the most prime designers of the world like Oscar De La Renta, Christian Dior, Andre Courreges, Yves Saint Laurent had their own version of a jumpsuit created which they featured in the fashion weeks as well. In the 70’s jumpsuit became way more unisex where Elvis Presley would sport it as a part of their stage persona infusing more hippiness in the attire. In the 80’s jumpsuit became so popular that American designer Geoffrey Beene called it as the “ballgown of next century”. In the early 2000’s the style fell out of the way but in recent years it has gained it’s pride back, the prime initiative was taken by Nicolas Ghesquire who was with Balenciaga at the time when he was experimenting with various fabrics and patterns that can give jumpsuit a much more contemporary look. This easy to wear, versatile, little bit feisty, jumpsuit again became the modern day staple for women and a must have wardrobe outfit.
