Our woman&home Digital Fashion Editor Caroline Parr is a huge fan of this look, commenting, "I love denim in all shapes and sizes, and Davina's jumpsuit is a really refreshing take on classic dungarees. Her zip front jumpsuit is fitted at the bodice, which gives it a dressier feel then you'd normally get with overalls, and the trousers flare into a really flattering wide leg cut.
Later saying "They're the ideal layering piece for autumn - all you need is a white shirt, loafers and gold jewellery to look incredibly chic.".
