Trend of the week: The all-in-one

Love it or hate it, the all-in-one is the trend that has everyone talking, says Annmarie O'Connor

INSPIRATION

Whether a knee jerk response to last season’s baroque trend or a nod to simpler times, the all-in-one has emerged as a hot ticket for spring/summer 13.

Sugary dungarees at Philip Lim, laser cut jumpsuits at Moschino and Margaret Howell’s nautical big and brace dresses all made the grade with River Island,Zara and Reiss giving highstreet fans a run for their money. Like lazy-dressing? Look to MiH for 70s-inspired boilersuits.We feel a Charlie’s Angels moment coming on.
