Jumpsuit for long legs/short body - impossible?

Does anyone know of a shop where someone with proportions like myself might have a chance of buying a jumpsuit that doesn't look daft?

I'm about 5'4, size 10-12 but the distance from my shoulders to hip is short proportional to my height.

So, I either end up with something too long in the body, with the crotch of the trousers hanging way too low (which looks daft - like a kid dressing up)
or (from a petite range) I end up with something that fits my torso, but is too short in the leg.

I really want a jumpsuit though!

Is it a lost cause?

Has anyone tried anything on recently and thought "the legs on this are way too long!"??

Nothing to help I'm afraid but I have the same issue though I'm a bit taller. Just bought a pair of dungarees and the strap buckles have to be round the back to stop them being all flappy at the top.

I have a size 10 denim jumpsuit from Madeleine which is short in the body & long on legs. I’m 5’6” though & need to wear heels with it. You could always get the legs turned up though.
