Where Can I Find: A Good Jumpsuit?

Finding a good jumpsuit can be as difficult as going to the bathroom in one. The category itself is a bit elusive; jumpsuits haven’t reached “essential” status yet, but more and more brands are beginning to add them to their collections, season after season.

If you let it, a jumpsuit can be one of the most practical things you own. But first, you have to find one that’s worth the investment. We polled a wide group of women with varying body shapes, personal styles, and levels of disposable income to land on nine retailers that have you covered (literally) from top to bottom.

Ilana Kohn Gary Jumpsuit, $276

Ilana Kohn Gary Jumpsuit in denim, $298

Ilana Kohn: If loose and baggy is more your speed, you really can’t beat Ilana Kohn. (The Gary Jumper, which comes in a bunch of colors, is pretty close to perfect.) However, the Lee jumpsuit ($298) — which is a fitted denim — is another great bet for something that’s substantially more tailored.

Wilfred Dessin Jumpsuit, $165

Wilfred Grignard Romper, $145

Aritzia: One Racked editor with a “crazy-long torso” swears by Aritzia jumpsuits. Her favorite is the Grignard Romper ($145), which looks great with or without tights. Here’s a similar version with full pants.

Eloquii Sequin Deep-V Jumpsuit, $129.90

Eloquii Diamond Knit Jumpsuit, $149.90

Eloquii: The plus-size retailer has a pretty vast selection of jumpsuits right now. Embellishments and add-ons are the name of the game here, so expect to find things like sweetheart necklines, sequins, bows, lace bodices, and asymmetrical peplums on the site, in addition to classic styles.

Loup Savannah Overalls, $176

Loup Savannah Overalls, $176

Loup: Loup makes cool, slightly retro-looking jumpsuits in a wide variety of styles, like this flared denim jumpsuit ($187) and this chambray jumpsuit with a cute tie at the waist (on sale for $138). If it’s overalls you crave, they have those, too; check them out in a black straight-leg above ($176).

Miranda Bennett Every Day Jumpsuit, $319

Miranda Bennett Every Day Jumpsuit, $319

Miranda Bennett: This luxe Austin label makes simple, no-fuss jumpsuits. The signature style, the Every Day Jumpsuit ($319 to $398), comes in two different types of silks and in a few neutral colors — and by colors, we mean black, white, and camel.

Rachel Comey Dextra Pant, $460

Rachel Comey Barrie Jumpsuit, $449

Rachel Comey: If you’re into jumpsuits, chances are you’ve contemplated one from Rachel Comey, like the sleek Dextra Pant ($460) or the utilitarian Barrie Jumpsuit ($449). They’re a bit pricey, but since Rachel Comey is stocked at a ton of retailers, you can probably find one with a decent discount or promo if you’re willing to dig.

Elvi Suedette Jumpsuit, $36

Elvi Animal Print Jumpsuit, $46

Elvi: Another solid (and inexpensive) plus-size option comes from the UK-based brand Elvi. A few standouts that are available online now include the Animal Print Jumpsuit ($46), the Prima Black Lace Jumpsuit ($70), and the Burnt Orange Jumpsuit ($33).

Forever 21 Wide Leg Jumpsuit, $29.90

Forever 21 Halter Velveteen Jumpsuit, $32.90

Forever 21: In a pinch, you can’t really beat Forever 21 — especially if you’re still trying to figure out if this look is for you. The Wide Leg Jumpsuit ($29.90) and the Halter Velveteen Jumpsuit ($32.90) both have a distinct Reformation vibe.

Argent Tuck Jumpsuit, $298

Argent Tuck Jumpsuit, $298

Argent: Argent specializes in functional workwear — pants are designed with keycards and badges in mind — and the Tuck Jumpsuit ($298) is no exception. The top and bottom are attached but can be separated, so you don’t have to take the whole thing off to go to the bathroom.
