The Petite Jumpsuit Guide

I love jumpsuits. Ok, let me rephrase. I love seeing others in jumpsuits. If I have to pick one clothing item that scares me (besides a bandage dress that just does not respect me and my food baby), it would definitely be a jumpsuit. I’m petite and curvy, so of course it’s nerve wracking. But being scared doesn’t mean I won’t wear it, it simply means more thought is put into wearing it!

So what are the key things to remember when shopping for jumpsuits as a petite?

1. (No brainer) Filter search to petite sizes only – Haha ok that isn’t really a trick but really is my step 1.
2. For regular jumpsuits, look for cropped or ankle length. P.s. cropped on normal people equals great length for the shorter ones!
3. Cinching around the waist area creates an illusion of a length. In addition a relaxed jumpsuit may look overly boxy on a petite, and hence tying the middle prevents that.
4. Go for fun neck details. The classic petite trick still stays — try not to cover the neck area as much. I love square necks, deep v-necks, and even off the shoulders.
5. Heels! Particularly pointed toes do the job in creating the illusion of length.
6. Wear it, own it, and flaunt it!
