Diane Freis Floral Chiffon Jumpsuit, 1980s

Ease and simplicity were the name of the game for Diane Freis. Amid the backdrop of power suits and boxy silhouettes in the 1980s, Fries’ popularity was in large part credited to her comfortable and care-free options that often-featured vibrant prints in patterns.

Done in an extremely lightweight poly chiffon, this 1980s Diane Freis jumpsuit showcases a cheerful floral print in tones of pink, wisteria, azure blue, and leaf green that pop against the off-white background. Matching beads have been applied throughout adding a bit of dimension and luster the print.

The jumpsuit offers a surplice bodice with a plunging V-neckline that ends in a shirred waistline offering ample stretch. The pants of the jumpsuit are done in rhythmically pleated chiffon that finish in a dramatic culotte leg. Flowing, pleated sleeves round out the design.

This jumpsuit is fun, vibrant, and the ultimate option for comfort. It can be easily styled as a fresh day-to-night look or worn for an easy lounge day.
