Marc Jacobs Velvet Jumpsuit

Trend Alert! The hottest thing coming off the runway for Spring 2009 is the jumpsuit! Get a “jump” this Fall with this Marc Jacobs velvet number, much more forgiving than the strapless and the tapered leg ones shown, which are meant for the impossibly tall and thin. Just coming back from Fashion Week, I am in shock by how much skinnier the models are each season. How much smaller can they go before they just shrivel up and disappear? Sure, on the runway they look great but as a normal functioning human, it looks depressing. Being a mom, I just want to invite them over for my famous roast chicken and pasta. For the healthy 5’6″ 130 lbs smoking hot babes or even those who are curvier and sexy, this forgiving but HOT jumpsuit is the perfect canvas to over accessorize with this season’s big, bright and bold necklaces! The top is a mock coat and will cover up the pooch left by holiday indulgences. Pair this with a wide belt and you can go ahead and hit that dessert table with a vengeance. At Net a Porter for $4100.

    Like, really seriously?

    I agree with the spirit of your post, but I shudder at the thought jumpsuits coming back in. And I don’t think this could be flattering…
