The Spring Trend That You Won't Be Able to Ignore

For the coming season, the fashion world seems to be trading in the two-piece suit that reigned supreme in fall and winter for a newer, and arguably more convenient, trend. As you may remember from back in September, the utility jumpsuit, also described as a boxier, sometimes belted, and a little ’70s-inspired take on the one-piece wonder, was seen on countless spring runways, including, Valentino, Ralph Lauren, and Stella McCartney.

Now, however, the trend has evolved from just a runway favorite to a staple on the street style scene, having been worn by everyone from Lisa Aiken to Gala Gonzalez, and it's now finally available to purchase via all the brands and retailers we love at every price point. From silky styles to denim versions to light linen takes in a range of colors, with so many options, we’re banking this will be the trend you can’t ignore—and won’t want to.

Editor-at-Large

Since starting as an intern back in 2013, Nicole Akhtarzad Eshaghpour has held several roles here at Who What Wear, and she is currently Editor-at-Large. It was a less expected route, seeing as she was graduating from business school at USC when this all began, but it has turned out to be the best one for her. Fast-forward to 2024, and she's moved to NYC from her hometown of Beverly Hills and spends her workdays a little differently from when she was an intern starting out. Currently, she focuses on a weekly mélange of shopping content. As far as her personal style goes, she's largely drawn to classic pieces and neutral basics but will always make an exception for something colorful, printed, or bejeweled as long as it's deemed worthy enough. After all, the only thing she loves more than a good party is dressing up for one. On weekdays, she can usually be found at home eating something delicious for dinner and trying to force her husband to watch Summer House.
