Dungarees or overalls as they are sometimes known, are no longer the reserve of pregnant women or girls under the age of five. Today, when worn right, they can make a killer impact. Especially if you pair them with a pair of chunky heels.

The only downside to wearing dungarees of any kind is that you have to pretty much strip off when you visit the ladies’ room, but other than that, prepare for compliments galore.

If you’re wondering how to style them, you can go down several routes. For a darker denim look, a stripey top underneath works like magic. However if you’re going for a coloured or faux leather choice, a beautiful shirt will lift the outfit perfectly.

Whether you’re embracing your 70s inner disco chick, or you just want to try something new, dungarees are the ultimate wardrobe staple for spring 2016.

Take a look through our gallery as we effortlessly convince you of their sartorial power. Don’t forget to go ‘fullscreen’ to see all the shopping details.
