Overalls Are Officially Back in Style — How to Wear Them the 2023 Way

Bieber styled light-wash, baggy Dickies overalls for date night in Beverly Hills with husband Justin. To get her look, pick up a distressed pair in a size or two too big and layer them over a fitted white tee. Finish with a long black duster coat and pointed-toe heels.

Kardashian was pictured in a black pair of Dickies overalls worn over a Blink-182 graphic tee — a nod to her husband, Travis Barker. To bring similar '90s edge to your look, finish with creepers or thick lug-sole loafers and skinny dark sunglasses.

Wilde showed some bare skin in her '70s-inspired overalls equipped with a cropped pant leg and two front pockets at the hips. Overalls like this are a bit more fitted and look cool worn over a simple tank or tube top. Wilde's wedges and Ray-Ban sunglasses were in line with her boho aesthetic.

Choose a pair of overalls that are just baggy enough through the leg, but fitted or adjustable at the hips so that they stay up. When you unclasp the straps, the top half of your overalls will fold over the waistband, giving off the look of deconstructed denim. A cropped blazer is the perfect finishing touch, both adding polish and offering a glimpse of your midriff for subtle sex appeal.

The key to pulling off overalls with one strap starts with the slouch. Make sure your overalls are baggy enough to hang off your body, and start with the foundation of an interesting shirt, be it a colorfully stitched blouse or a design with pouf sleeves. Most of this top will be shown once you slip your arm out of one of the straps, so make sure it works to tie your whole outfit together and also speaks to the vibe of your other accessories. In this case, a pair of relaxed flip-flops brought the free-spirited feeling full circle.

A cool pair of '90s overalls might come in a light acid wash and with cargo pockets or a loop on one leg. To achieve a look most reflective of the decade, start with a breezy white T-shirt and make sure you finish with platform sneakers. Vans, Converse, Reebok, or Nike kicks all fit the bill. Of course, a backpack is a '90s staple, too, so adding one on will really drive your point home.

In the winter, you'll want to layer underneath your overalls simply to start with a foundation of warmth. While you can always add a jacket on top à la Bieber, a thick turtleneck sweater is a great starting point. Once you add the overalls, you can cinch your waist with a belt or two if your layers are feeling bulky around the bodice. Timberland boots make for functional footwear that also allow for a tuck of the pant leg if it's wet outside.

A pair of utility overalls that are rugged, distressed, and perhaps splashed with paint make a total street style statement. Style these over a white shirt and add on a printed bomber or varsity jacket, plus oversize hoop earrings and a slick boot.

While there are plenty of dark-wash and tailored overalls that feel sophisticated enough for the office, our favorite way to wear overalls to work is in the form of a corduroy dress, which feels especially fall. If your mini is particularly skin-baring or short, layer it over a long-sleeved button-down shirt that has an even longer hemline. This combination feels slightly schoolgirl but is made instantly chic with a pair of knee-high boots and a leather shoulder bag. Sticking to a neutral color palette is another way to make this look appear more luxe.

If you're looking for ways to style overalls for summer, shorts are the easy answer. Whether you DIY it and cut your long overalls into shorts or buy them as is, rocking them over an oversize graphic tee — perhaps with one strap undone — looks rugged and cool. Finish with a chunky sneaker or platform boot and a leather clutch for the ultimate street style statement.
