Black jumpsuit help please!

[pudding25]

I really want one! No idea if it will suit but I have an image in my head of me looking glam in one on holiday!

I don't want anything too formal and would prefer strappy with very narrow legs. I just can't find anything I like that doesn't cost a fortune.

Budget would be £50. Can anyone help please.

Asos are good for jumpsuits

Agh I have ordered and returned aprox 50 of the things in the last month. It is really difficult and no one has them in store so I have ordered online and none of them look like they do on the screen! I am 5ft 7 but apparently that is too tall for one that fits in the body and legs. If I find a good one I will let you know. The closest I have got to keeping one was a vero moda one from asos but even in tall it was slightly too short and the waist sat a bit strangely. My last ditch attempt is a warehouse one.

Oh and if you want a casual one look at Johnlewis. There is a nice Kin one that has just come out for 55 and it looks nice (I need a smarter one for an event I am going to). Good luck!

in 12 or 14

Mewkins - try phase 8. They are a bit more formal and expensive than op is looking for I think

Thanks Summer....I love the look of their wide leg one in navy but I seem to be intent on exhausting all other less expensive options first...and hoping for a discount to bring it down in price a bit.

Sweaty Betty have a beautiful black strappy jumpsuit, but coming in over your budget I'm afraid £120 (approx) maybe reduced in the sale.

karen millen have a nice one. though i think you'd have to get one tailor made to be flattering

I got a nice mint velvet one, mewkins. I'm also 5'7". It's quite a relaxed fit but isn't a super casual jersey one (which look like onesies on me), so it might be too dressy for your needs. It was £99. Says dry clean only but it's polyester so I chucked it in the machine in a net bag on the hand wash cycle and dried it flat and it came out perfectly.

It's dry cleaned because it's lined though, it think but the fabrics didn't strike me as risky to be washed and sure enough, no shrinkage or damage.

*i think.

Thanks will have a look at Mint Velvet!

It's this one

I found they are all a bit high waisted, giving that 'long arse' look at the back but this one is less so.

Yes I quite like that! I will see how I get on with the warehouse one and maybe try that one too. How does the sizing come up?

Thanks everyone. I am 5ft 6 but have long legs and a short body and am an appley shape so not sure if this will ever be a good look!

Love the Sweaty Betty one but far too expensive!

Sorry, mewkins, the sizing is fine. Possibly a bit generous but then it's a relaxed fit so you wouldn't want to be any smaller really. I'm 5'7", 8st 6lb, 30FF and usually an 8 and the 8 fitted fine. Comfortable and loose without being flappy and baggy, iyswim?!

Long legs and short body is a better comfo this look than the other way around, I think.

I tried on a nice strappy jumpsuit in new look.

this one. They do a tall version too.
