With both denim and jumpsuits bang on trend in 2015, what could be better than to combine the two? Lounge by Zalando invites you to leap into a denim jumpsuit. What a ‘jean’ius idea, don’t you think?

Jumpsuits have been around for almost a century, but they were first popularised as a bold new fashion choice for women by Yves Saint Laurent in the 1960s. With the likes of actress Diana Rigg in the hit TV show The Avengers adopting the look, it quickly assumed iconic status. For a time in the early 1980s, the jumpsuit was the outfit of choice for fashion-savvy career girls. Since then, the all-in-one has been largely out of the mainstream, but it's now finally having a moment again.

Not to be confused with Dungarees (or overalls as they're often called in the US) only have a square bib and brace arrangement at the front, whereas denim jumpsuits come in a much wider variety of silhouettes.  If you're all about showing off your legs, then you might want to try out the jumpsuit's shortie cousin - a denim romper.

With celebrities as diverse as Miley Cyrus and Myleene Klass getting in on the trend, the denim jumpsuit has an increasingly broad fashion appeal, and why shouldn’t it?  It's simple and convenient, delivering a statement look with minimal effort, in tune with the cool, nonchalant vibe of the modern woman.

It's also flattering on a variety of body types. A loose-fitting jumpsuit cinched with a belt can accentuate a womanly hourglass shape and give you curves you didn't know you had. Plus there's nothing like strutting along in a jumpsuit for bringing out the natural sway of your hips.

The classic long-sleeved denim jumpsuit comes in a range of styles -  from easy fit to form-fitting, dark treatments to lighter washes, and from ankle cuts to bell bottoms.  There are casual and sporty designs as well as ones that are more tailored and resort wear orientated, and even deconstructed and oversized jumpsuits for an avant-garde, high fashion take on the trend.

Whether you're in need of a daytime look or something for after dark, the denim jumpsuit is an exciting and versatile alternative to the usual wardrobe staples.

The denim jumpsuit can be dressed up or down depending on the occasion and tailored to a number of different looks. Team your all-in-one with simple mules or sandals and loose, natural hair, and the result will be relaxed and effortlessly casual.

For a more street look that still says "I'm off the clock and having fun," take a leaf out of songstress Gwen Stefani’s book and twin your jumpsuit with big sunnies, jazzy trainers and a loose ponytail. Ankle boots, heavier, defined make-up and a slicker ‘do will take you into a more futuristic "1984" direction, while the addition of high heels and a big pendant necklace will allow you to move smoothly from daytime into evening.

If you're nervous about carrying off a classic denim jumpsuit, or if you like to be less covered up, then you can always opt for a shorter playsuit where the impact of the outfit will be softened by the contrast of bare skin. Sleeveless, halterneck and strapless varieties are available, as are deliciously backless designs, jumpsuits with plunging necklines and ones with playful cut-out panels in the waist and ribs area.

In soft, figure-hugging, stretchy denim, these jumpsuits have a show-stopping allure that makes them ideal for nights out at your favourite clubs and bars.
