Dresses are awesome because they require little to no effort. Slip in, slip out, and you can be on your merry way. Now, jumpsuits and rompers should have the same effect, but they carry a bit of a stigma, even though they’re great to incorporate into your wardrobe as alternative one-piece options. They’re called playsuits because they’re fun. We’ve plucked twelve denim pieces that make our cut for spring and summer, check them out below!
1. A.P.C. Blue Denim Jumpsuit 2. Emma Cook Sleeveless Jumpsuit 3. Twenty8Twelve ‘Hardy’ Romper
4. Dolce Vita Kate Chambray Romper 5. Paul & Joe Drawstring Chambray Playsuit 6. Sessun Jumpsuit
7. Miss Selfridge Crochet Denim Playsuit 8. ASOS Pussybow Denim Playsuit 9. See by Chloe Denim Playsuit
10. Levi’s Denim Playsuit 11. Topshop Acid Denim Playsuit 12. Gap 1969 Denim Wrap Jumpsuit

Even though our favorite season is coming to a close, there’s comfort in the rampant summer sales on last month’s must-haves. Today’s find? An adorable ‘Winnie’ romper by Motel from Nasty Gal—formerly $78, now $54.60. We can’t read the name without imagining Winnie from The Wonder Years sporting it with her cute blunt-cut bangs (we have to imagine this was taken into consideration with the model’s ‘do as well). Pair this denim one-piece with platforms and a pair of vintage frames or wear it with tights this fall for a look that draws on childhood innocence and urban appeal alike!
Motel ‘Winnie’ romper ($54.60) – buy it at Nasty Gal.

In the market for a jumper? How about this hot little number, newly arrived at Hudson Jeans? The strapless draw-string waisted one piece features thick cuffed shorts and great contour seaming on the lower half, keeping the top simple and clean. A definite transitional piece from day to night (switch out your flip flops & beach hat for some knock-out jewelry and black wedge sandals), you basically won’t have to take it off until August! Juuust kidding (kind of).

This one piece mechanic’s standard outfit, the denim jump suit, looks pretty hot on tall, thin, lovely Ellen Pompeo.

How would you style this piece to avoid looking like you’re on your way to the garage? Sound off!

With a constant inundation of big & bad brands hitting us face first via inbox/RSS feed every day, we can’t like everything. But it’s true that even lines of questionable cool-caliber have something to offer. Some hidden gem. For Italian brand Rare, it’s the denim overalls in their Spring 2011 lookbook. They’re well-proportioned, perfectly creased, grunge-inspired, and ready to rock. The rest of the lookbook feels like it’s chocked with too many overlapping design details and (gulp…faux-necklace floral detail over a denim workshirt), but for this awesome one-piece release, we’ll forgive them this season.

In stores now and for a limited time: G-Star has produced the Griff Arc suit in raw denim. It’s a strapless denim romper cut in roomy arc legs and bodice top. Featured in the Spring/Summer 2011 global advertising campaign and worn by the campaign’s poster girl Gemma Arterton (“Prince of Persia”, “Quantum of Solace”), the Griff Arc suit “reflects G-Star’s core women’s theme of RAW Elegance, fusing contradictory elements of sensuality and toughness in a flattering all-in-one shape.” We love the semi-billow silhouette shown on the runway below—imagine yourself power-walking down the street in this ensemble! If you’re in the market for a strapless raw denim one-piece, then G-Star is the brand to try. They are known for their ability to mesh wearable runway silhouettes with premium denim.
Available now exclusively at G-Star monobrand stores throughout the United States. Find a G-Star store near you.
