Tailored jumpsuits have been spotted on runways, on celebrities, and now even on Second Life avatars.
If the words "tailored jumpsuit" instantly cause images of an auto-mechanic's heinous blue one-piece, don't worry; it's not a look I would dream of endorsing! To be fair though, I need to give Betty Cooper props for making the masculine look a sexy one in Archie comics over the years.
The look is hot though this season, and there's nothing masculine about it. The flowy numbers are tailored at the waist and give a very feminine silhouette. Celebrities including Pamela Anderson, Scarlett Johanson, Ashley Olsen and Kelly Rowland have been spotted in the new look, and none of them look like they're planning an afternoon underneath their luxury cruisers.
Even Second Life designers knows about this season's one-piece trend. Now you can dress up your avatar in the Couture “Satin Corset Jumpsuit.â€
