Fashion Jumpsuit Challenge 2008

Posted by Brett Glass on Mon, May 12 at 2:46 PM

Its true: Gwyneth Paltrow wore a Stella McCartney jumpsuit to the Iron Man premier. Personally, I loved it and hope this is one more step toward a big jumpsuit comeback. Theyre everything fashion should befun, frivolous, futuristic (in a 70s way).
Unfortunately, I dont see them nearly enough. Lets change that! To promote the jumpsuit cause, send me a pic in your favorite onepiece by Monday, May 19 and Ill select the best, post it here and give the winner a $50 gift certificate to Red Light, which incidentally has an incredible selection of retro jumpsuitsfrom sleek 70s Cher styles to pop-bright early 80s pieces. Plus a few flightsuit types for guys.
Along with Fringe Vintage, theyre the best places in town to pick one up (prices range from $11-$20). You know, in case you dont have a selection at home.
Send pics to: brettglass@gmail.com.
