Ilana Kohn Review: Harry Jumpsuit

I’ve seen a lot of Ilana Kohn on the Insta-sphere so even though I wouldn’t normally try on such a wide-legged jumpsuit, when I saw this Harry Jumpsuit for a good price on the RealReal I couldn’t resist.

First a little bit about the brand Ilana Kohn: all their items are made in NYC. They are quality garments and that’s probably why a jumpsuit like this originally retails for $300+. And I’m assuming for that price they pay their garment workers a living wage (but I don’t know that for sure nor is there any info about that).

I figured if I didn’t like the jumpsuit I could easily return it but for $116 it was definitely worth a shot. And to my great surprise, I really love it. At first I thought it wouldn’t work for me since it’s so long and the indigo material is heavy (like jeans). But once I slipped it on, it was really comfortable and fit well. I got a size small and I’m 5’4”. The chest are and arm holes are perfect (I’m pretty flat chested so this jumpsuit might not work for the more buxom figure). The only thing I wasn’t too sure about was the length (especially when I see it on the model here). I want to hem it but I took two polls over on Insta story and the majority of you guys say don’t hem it. I might still hem it lol >.<

The only thing I don’t like about this jumpsuit (other than the price-eek!) is that the zipper in the back goes all the way up so it’s a tad difficult getting this on and off in a hurry. Also because of the wide legs, you gotta be extra careful when going to the bathroom so nothing touches the ground. But those are very minor things. Overall, I really love this jumpsuit (even though my husband likened it to plumber overalls lol).

It’s currently winter (in California) so I’m wearing a shirt underneath this jumpsuit. But it’ll definitely work in the summer too since it’s sleeveless and falls away from the body. So even if the material is on the thicker side, I don’t think I’ll overheat in it (but I’ll update you guys on how it is when I wear it when summer rolls around).

Anyways if you’re interested in trying them out, I see Ilana Kohn jumpsuits pop up on the RealReal once in awhile (current Ilana Kohn selection here).
