My favorite type of dress to wear is a jumper dress. I love how you can style them so many different ways and they’re usually pretty nursing friendly.

This post will help you with how to wear jumper dresses and show you jumper dress outfits. A jumper dress is meant to be worn with a top underneath it.

It does not have sleeves. Jumper dresses, sometimes called overall dresses, are perfect for dressing up or wearing casually.

You can wear them to work, church, school, or just to go shopping or hangout with friends.

How To Wear Jumper Dresses Idea #1 – Patterned Shirt

Jumper dresses are typically solid colored, so wearing a shirt with a pattern on it is really fun. You can wear a striped shirt, floral print shirt, leopard print top, and more.

2. Wear A Sweater

Sweaters are great for wearing under a jumper dress in the fall or winter when it’s cold outside. You’ll want a sweater that’s not too big and bulky since you want your jumper dress to lay nicely over it.

3. Wear A Cardigan

Cardigans look really cute with a lot of things, including jumper dresses. Oversized ones fit a little better over them and give your outfit a cozy and comfy vibe.

4. Wear A Jacket

Jackets are the best way to add warmth to your outfit, but they do hide the top of your jumper dress, especially if zipped up.

You can always wear a jacket outside, then take it off when you to get to wherever you’re going so you can show off your cute jumper dress outfit.

You can wear a leather jacket, a jean jacket, or a utility jacket.

5. Wear A Solid Colored Tee

Solid colored tees are one of the most classic ways to wear jumper dresses. A tighter fitting one will fit well under your dress and make you look so put together.

You can wear all kinds of different colors, just choose one that looks good with the color of your jumper dress.

6. Wear Short Sleeves

Short sleeves are perfect for wearing under a jumper dress in the spring and summer. It will help you keep cool.

7. Wear Long Sleeves

Long sleeves look so sleek and stylish under jumper dresses. This will help keep you warm.

8. Wear Tights Underneath

Since your legs are exposed when wearing a dress, you might need to add some tights depending on your weather.

This will help your legs stay warm and will make your outfit so fashionable.

9. Accessorize Your Outfit

Some accessories that look cute with jumpers are scarves, hats, and necklaces. These will add a fun flair to your outfit, plus of course you’ll need a cute pair of shoes and a fun handbag.
