The little black dress has always been a wardrobe staple, but we’re ready to shake things up a bit. This season put the LBD aside and step out in a little black jumpsuit instead! From classic to casual to sexy, simply add pumps to these one-piece wonders and you’re ready to turn heads.

Black Lace Inset Jumpsuit

Recreate the look of your favorite blouse and pants in a lace-inset jumpsuit by Roland Mouret. A back shirttail hints at this illusion, while embroidered lace adds a ladylike touch.

Cap Sleeve Jumpsuit

Undone pleats create a soft texture in a Catherine Malandrino cap sleeve jumpsuit. A V neckline, sash at the waist and ruched ankle cuffs make for a sexy silhouette.

Black Double Breasted Jumpsuit

For a work appropriate look, try a double-breasted jumpsuit by Band of Outsiders. With a slim-leg silhouette, crisp pleating and button-front lend chic elements to this one-piece design.

Black Retro Jumpsuit

Go for a retro vibe in the Dyna jumpsuit by Young Fabulous & Broke. Wide legs complement the billowing silhouette while a drawstring neckline gathers to create a revealing bodice and V neck.

Black Floral Jumpsuit

For a curve-contouring look, go with Valentino’s floral applique jumpsuit in black. Featuring cut-in sleeveless shoulders, a high neckline and tonal floral appliques add a classy touch.

DVF Lace Jumpsuit

Embrace one of the season’s hottest trends, lace noir, in a floral lace jumpsuit by Diane von Furstenberg. A flattering surplice bodice features gathered elastic to define the waist.

Black Strapless Jumpsuit

Ditch your LBD for this little black strapless jumpsuit by Catherine Malandrino for date night. This piece gains a flattering structure from lightly padded cups and flexible boning.

Black Tuxedo Jumpsuit

Get formal or black tie ready in a tuxedo jumpsuit by Valentino. Tailored with sharp peaked lapels and crisp front pleat, this sleeveless design is both elegant and sleek.

Cargo Jumpsuit

A cargo jumpsuit by Haute Hippie has a stand-up collar and exposed zip closure for a military-inspired feel. Featuring patch pockets and drawstring waist, wear this utilitarian style to a casual dinner.

Two-Tone Jumpsuit

Take your look to a new level in a two-tone jumpsuit by Alice + Olivia. Featuring a poplin top, fitted bodice and sateen pants, we suggest pairing it with a chic leather jacket.
