I don't like that at all op. But everyone's taste is different. But that's double denim on steroids.

DementorsKiss · 20/09/2019 14:51

nope, don't like that at all - looks like a painter & decorator

BlairWaldorfLovesShopping · 20/09/2019 14:52

I've got a very similar one from Mango, but it's khaki so not obviously denim. I LOVE it. Go for it and see what you think!

Lumene · 20/09/2019 14:53

I like it. No idea what it will look like on you though have you tried it on?

Fresta · 20/09/2019 14:56

I've not tried it- just like the look of it- would wear without the jumper under though- debating whether to order. Monsoon stuff is usually a good fit on me.

I bought this one from New Look a few months back and wore it for the first time last Saturday and I don't think I've ever received so many compliments on an outfit before! I didn't wear anything under it (except underwear obviously Hmm), had the zip fairly open (I have absolutely zero cleavage) and wore it with brown square heeled sandals. Go for it OP Grin

Oh, one more thing (which I can see on the Monsoon link also)......POCKETS Grin

Fresta · 20/09/2019 15:37

Thanks @HolyMerlot - do you mind me asking how old you are and what size? I love that Newlook one but it looks very slim fitting for me- need to conceal the lumps and bumps Smile

@Fresta I'm 26, 5ft 7 and a size 10. I bought a size 10 and it is fairly figure hugging, but in a nice way, not a restricting way. I see no reason why it wouldn't be just as flattering and comfortable if I'd bought a size or two above my usual size and wore it as a looser jumpsuit. The leg length of the jumpsuit was slightly too short for my liking so I folded them up a turn or two to make it more of a feature Smile

Fresta · 20/09/2019 16:35

Hmm, so 20 years younger than me. Smile

I think you’ll look great in it at your height and size! Age is irrelevant!

MikeUniformMike · 20/09/2019 20:21

I opened the link expecting to dislike it but i do like it.
I'm older than you OP and get compliments when I wear short dungarees.

dinodiva · 21/09/2019 08:04

I bought that yesterday! I’m 39 and 5ft 4.5. I’m usually a 12 in monsoon but got the 14 in this, the 12 was a bit too tight and it was hard to lift my arms! I found it really comfy and flattering though.

Spaceprincess · 21/09/2019 08:06

I've got a black cord boilersuit from Topshop, I'm a size 12 and 48. I say go for it :)

Kochicoo · 21/09/2019 08:25

I like it and definitely think any age can wear a suit like that. If it suits/fits, I think it'll look great.
