Are Jumpsuits Suitable for Weddings and Special Occasions?
Are jumpsuits suitable for special occasions like weddings? Absolutely. Women no longer HAVE TO wear a dress or gown for special events, and weddings are no exception. Consider a stylish jumpsuit as an alternative to the usual.
Jumpsuits are body-flattering. They are beautiful, comfortable, and non-restrictive, and they give you the flexibility and fluidity to move around effortlessly. Unlike most formal dresses, you do not have to give up your comfort to look chic.
For a wedding, you can easily style-up a jumpsuit to fit a dress code and make it classy. With the right accessories – heels, wraps, stoles, costume jewellery, elegant handbags, headpieces, and eye wear, your silhouette will be runway-worthy.
Jumpsuit styles vary. They come with tapered, straight, semi-wide, wide, and ultra-wide legs. The designs range from halter-neck, strapless, and off-the-shoulder styles to jumpsuit gowns, bow-bodice suits, and tuxedo jumpsuits, all echoing popular gown details. Sleeve designs include bell, Bishop, cap, and butterfly sleeves. And the popular fabric choice for formal jumpsuits is velvet, brocade, satin, crepe, linen, and silk.
Whether you desire a sleek style, an embellished design, or something fluid and flowy, try a jumpsuit for a change. We can’t deny the fact that a chic and elegant jumpsuit will make a welcome and refreshing change from the typical style of guest dresses everyone else is wearing.

Roaring Twenties Vintage Writing Journal
This era of the Flapper generation had a new breed of young men and women who loved the fresh and ‘swinging’ jazz music. A generation who showed disdain for the so-called acceptable behaviour. They were energetic, and they loved to party. They embraced what many considered as an outrageous lifestyle and are known to be the first generation of independent individuals that pushed barriers in political, economic, and sexual freedom. They are the Flappers of the 1920s.
As a vintage era aficionado, you’ll love this Roaring 20s vintage-inspired 'bujo'. Each lined page comes with images of young Charleston dance ‘swingers’.
