The pattern I chose was one in my stash-Butterick 5652. I don't know if its still available. I altered the crotch depth and leg length because when I held the pattern up to myself it seemed as if it would be to short. Turns out I didn't need to or at least not quite so much. Shame on me for not making a muslin! I think it kinda looks intentional by design according to the picture on the pattern sleeve.
It went together smoothly-no problems on this one. I love wearing it -it is so comfy and I LOVE those pockets. I get lots of raves when I wear it and have had several requests to make one for others. To which I promptly say no thanks. I tire of making the same thing over and over.
This jumpsuit is so versatile! I made it in the summer and first wore it with a belt and cuffed at the hem with some cute sandals. I got the cummerbund style belt from Forever 21 for less than $10! Since then I have worn it with different belts, necklaces and shoes, cuffed at the hem or not. I even wear it with a turtleneck underneath in cooler weather. The whole look changes fro classic to edgy to boho etc. with just a change of accessories! It has been so fun to wear that it is starting to show a little wear... I plan on making another very soon. When I do I will work on that one fit issue.
