Stunning formal jumpsuits for all seasonsFor Days You Don’t Want to Wear A Dress
Dressy jumpsuits for weddings or AKA formal jumpsuits are perfect for days when you really don’t fancy wearing a dress to a special occasion. Whether it’s a Winter wedding, special occasion, work, windy, cold, you forgot to shave your legs or you just want to feel comfortable. Dressy jumpsuits for women work for all seasons and a belt can go a long way in changing the aesthetic and shape of a simple black dressy jumpsuit. Sleeveless or short sleeve styles or dressy rompers are great for Summer but long sleeves, sequin or velvet jumpsuits are great for Winter and look luxe for holiday parties. Whether you’re looking for a dressy jumpsuit for weddings, a formal event, date night, the theatre or holiday parties, I’ve searched for the best of them to share with you here.

Are jumpsuits in style
Yes, both jumpsuits and catsuits are in style and a classic wardrobe piece. Whether it’s a simple, chic style for everyday or a dressy jumpsuit for special occasions as seen all over more recent runway shows including Prabal Gurung, Bronx and Banco and Chanel’s fashion shows.
The catsuit is one of the year’s most unexpected trends to emerge. But lest you relegate it to runway only (as seen multiple times on Saint Laurent’s and at Burberry)—know that everyone from Hailey Bieber to Lizzo has already worn it out in the wild. It’s like your favorite yoga one-piece got a sudden after-dark update.
One-piece outfits can be hit and miss and hard to pull off so I’ve rounded up the best of them. If you’re looking for affordable styles, Lulu’s has some absolutely stunning womens dressy jumpsuits.
I could’ve made this list of dressy jumpsuits for special occasions up pretty much entirely from their online store. Especially for the holidays with all of the red, green and sparkly styles they have. Their wine sequin strappy jumpsuit is under $70 and a total stunner. If I needed anymore formal jumpsuits, that’s the one I’d go for, for holiday parties.
For designer dressy jumpsuits for women that would be appropriate for black tie events, gala dinners and wedding guest outfits, FWRD has some of the most statement making, chic, statement designer styles from Retrofete and Norma Kamali.
If you’re looking for formal playsuits or rompers, go for more fitted styles in luxe fabrics like satin to avoid looking to summer casual.
Shop the best stunning dressy jumpsuits for women
As always there’s lots from Revolve as besides the fact I’ve always loved them, full disclosure I’m an Ambassador. Half of my wardrobe is from there and I can also use their images copyright free. Their free shipping and returns policy makes shopping easy, especially if you’re not familiar with a brands quality or sizing.
They have a lot of embellished black formal jumpsuits and open back styles but I really love their wide leg, one shoulder jumpsuit in blue velvet for a dressy jumpsuit for weddings, especially for Fall or Winter. It has such a sophisticated vibe. If you’re looking for small sizes, this one goes down to a XXS.
This curated list is a mix of both party jumpsuits and formal jumpsuit for weddings so obviously not all of them would be appropriate as formal wear. There’s also a couple of stunning white jumpsuits that would be perfect for the bride to be for her rehearsal dinner or bachelorette.
Also, don’t forget the power of shoes, bags, belts and accessories to take what might look like a simple jumpsuit from meh to wow!
What to wear under jumpsuits
Most styles are easy to wear regular underwear with but you might prefer to wear nipple coverups or a stick on bra with some of the backless or halter neck styles. For tighter leggings style jumpsuits, check everything in the mirror. There’s a product called Camel-Not camel toe cover that’s perfect for hiding what you might prefer not to draw attention to.
Otherwise, go for it. “There are so many formal jumpsuit options out there, such as this velvet piece from Ralph Lauren and this high-neck look from Black Halo, they make the perfect one-piece wedding guest outfit,” Lloyd says of the garment.
It doesn't hurt to look for embellishments such as beads, sequins, lace, or ruffles, either. Of course, just like a dress, the length of your jumpsuit matters: a formal wedding calls for a jumpsuit that has a full-length leg; anything shorter will feel too casual for a black tie dress code.
Add dimension to your jumpsuit by adding a blazer or leather jacket to give it some personality. When selecting a blazer or jacket go with one that enhances the jumpsuit,. Pick contrasting color tones to look sharp while similar hues to your jumpsuit will keep things more subtle.
Unlike a wedding that's strictly black tie, full-length evening gowns are preferred but not a must. A midi-length dress is also acceptable—just avoid anything above the knee as it will be too casual. Finally, wedding guest jumpsuits are another gray area for guests seeking out black-tie optional wedding dress attire.
Jumpsuits with romantic details like chiffon ruffles or jumpsuits that are structured can make a chic alternative to a dress when it comes to your next wedding!
Unless you're attending a tropical or destination wedding with a distinct vacation theme, a jumpsuit for a wedding should typically be full- or floor-length.
Jumpsuits are a must-have staple in every woman's closet, no matter her age. The head-to-toe, all-in-one garment creates a striking look that goes beyond a simple casual dress or pants and top combo, and into more fashionable territories.
For a summer wedding with a co*cktail attire dress code, opt for light and airy fabrics such as chiffon, linen, or organza. A floral maxi dress, a pastel midi or knee-length dress, as well as a jumpsuit, are all great options.
If you have an hourglass figure, you're in luck! Almost any type of jumpsuit will look great on you. Just make sure to choose a style that fits well in the waist and accentuates your curves. If you're petite, look for a jumpsuit with a cropped or wide-leg silhouette.
Some jumpsuits have the tendency to hide your body form due to their design. Accessorise with a belt for a more defined and flattering look with jumpsuits that aren't defined around the waist. Make sure that your jumpsuit is tight around your waist for a flattering look.
4) Parties and Night Out. When the sun sets and it's time to hit the town, jumpsuits are your secret weapon. Choose a chic jumpsuit that suits the occasion, whether it's a dinner date, a night of dancing, or clubbing. Sleek, form-fitting styles or those adorned with sequins and sparkles will help you turn heads.
You should avoid baggy jumpsuits that drown your body shape as this may appear too relaxed or casual for the event. Instead, you should opt for a fitted or tailored style jumpsuit that will show off your figure and create a sleek silhouette. Accessorise with a pair of heels and a clutch bag and you're good to go!
You can opt for a jumpsuit in a bold color or print and pair it with strappy heels and cute stud earrings. Or, you can select a neutral or black jumpsuit and opt for colorful statement earrings and a stunning necklace. For convenience, style your jumpsuit with a fun clutch or small handbag.
Men don't need to worry about a tuxedo; a tailored suit (with or without a tie) is perfect. Women can wear a short dress or elegant separates—as long as they're still dressy. This is an ideal occasion to break out a little black dress. Avoid styles like sundresses, which are too casual for this type of evening event.
A black tie dress code calls for a look that is of elegance and sophistication and there's no rules against wearing a jumpsuit to a black tie event! We recommend a gorgeous floor length suit for your black tie occasion as this is the perfect alternative to a floor length gown.
