Working from home? You’ll want one of these.

Inspiration

As many of us set up office in the spare room or at the kitchen table, the prospect of comfort looms large.

Although the perma-PJ dress code has its merits, there’s something to be said for getting dressed once in a while. Enter the jumpsuit.

Despite its detractors, this one-piece wonder has rightfully earned its place as a style solution with its ‘one and done’ appeal.

In these uncertain times, there’s something to be said for a feeling of cognitive ease.

There’s also something to be said for wearing what feels like a soft hug. Look good: feel good.

Now that’s a dress code we can work with.

Style notes

BODY OF EVIDENCE: Long torso? Opt for a looser silhouette to prevent a fabric tourniquet between the legs.

SLEEVE IT BE: Layer sleeveless styles with a t-shirt or long sleeve underpinning. Feeling fancy? Balance utility vibes with pretty puff sleeves.

OUT ON A LIMB: Accommodate bigger calves by swapping tapered for wide-leg styles. Longer gams? Split the difference with a cropped hem.

TOTALLY WAISTED: Create a more defined shape with elasticated waist details; drawstring or D-ring belts.
