Yes, You CAN Make a Utility Suit Cool
You can’t deny the appeal of a utility suit—also known as a boiler suit. Anything that can help you go from hitting the snooze button to the front door in just minutes (while also potentially doubling as your handbag with all those extra pockets), is worth paying attention to.
While you’ve probably got visions of plumbers and construction workers, there actually is a way to make the man-style jumpsuit a fashion win. Just look at what Rihanna did with Timberlands—who would've thought they'd ever have their time in such a stylish spotlight?
The key is all in the styling. We’d suggest staying away from heavy accessories and reaching for something simpler. Think classic bags, strappy sandals and a delicate chain necklace that’ll poke through from under the collar.
To keep your boiler suit from looking boyish (or reminiscent of your onesie), scroll through some of the best utility suit street style looks out there.
