Technically, there’s nothing sexy about a boilersuit. If we’re talking about the real deal here, the loose-fitting workman’s garment is meant for hard labor. It’s built for movement and comfort, for electricians and airport ground control. However, if you can look past the onesie-wearing cable guys and exterminators, there’s something to be said for wearing a more fitted and fashionable version of the classic all-in-one. When tied at the waist or topped with a blazer, coveralls can actually be cool, even alluring—and make for an instant outfit statement. Just look at the ladies who have pulled them off with great aplomb: Bella Hadid is a big fan, as are Slick Woods, Lily-Rose Depp, Carolyn Murphy, and many more. So while the boilersuit may not be for everyone, it’s a fall wardrobe item to get you out of your jeans-and-sweater rut, even if you’re not in construction (or a model). Above, here are six stylish ways to wear a one-piece this season.
