Overalls on Duty

Formerly made for workers and soldiers, the khaki jumpsuit has become a timeless piece in women's wardrobes. Easy to wear, it's suitable for all body shapes, and it has almost no age limit. This season, we want it to be ultra-feminine; this is why we pair it with mules or sandals with heels and a body in lace or tulle underneath, and we accessorize it with some jewelry and a fine belt.
