The jumpsuit has ceased to be exclusively utilitarian clothing and is becoming a full-fledged wardrobe staple. It is already a fashion message that easily adapts to different lifestyles.
In 2026, designers are focusing on versatility, comfort, and an expressive silhouette. Stylist Alina Lobanova shared which jumpsuits will be particularly relevant in the new season, how to choose them, and what to wear them with.
Minimalist Jumpsuits with Clear Architecture
Laconic models without unnecessary decor but with a precise cut are in vogue: an emphasis on the shoulders, waist, or hip line. "Such jumpsuits look graphic and expensive due to their proportions, not details. Most often, they are made from dense fabrics, have a matte texture, and come in neutral shades — from cloud white to deep graphite. They work as a clean canvas, allowing for play with accessories and footwear," explains the stylist.
Jumpsuits in the Spirit of the 70s and 90s
Flared trousers, soft drapery, stand-up collars, and retro fastenings are making a comeback. In the 2026 version, this looks more subdued yet self-ironic: without unnecessary theatricality and certainly — without solemn pathos. Such models fit well into everyday wardrobes and create a sense of a well-thought-out look. Denim, corduroy, and soft wool options are particularly striking.
Utilitarian Style and Work Aesthetics
Jumpsuits with patch pockets, belts, metal fittings, and dense fabrics continue to gain popularity. "Their strength lies in the feeling of reliability and practicality. These are items that do not require complex combinations and perform excellently in the hustle and bustle of the city. In 2026, utilitarian models become more elegant due to color and fit, moving away from overt roughness," says the fashion expert.
Evening and Festive Jumpsuits
The jumpsuit confidently replaces cocktail dresses. Silk, satin, lace, soft shine, and flowing lines make it a worthy alternative to the classic evening look. Asymmetry, open backs, or unconventional cuts are often used. Such an item makes a strong impression due to its shape and the movement of the fabric.
How to Wear and What to Combine With
The main principle is not to overload. The jumpsuit is already a complete element on its own, so accessories should be used sparingly. Footwear sets the mood: chunky boots make the look more casual, while minimalist pumps or mules make it more refined. Outerwear is chosen by contrast: strict coats, voluminous jackets, or short blazers.
