jumpsuit

Parachutist's full garment

A jumpsuit is a one-piece garment combining top and bottom, originally designed for parachutists who needed clothing that wouldn't catch or separate during a jump.

The practical design spread to mechanics, pilots, and other workers, then to fashion.

Modern jumpsuits range from utilitarian coveralls to elegant evening wear: She wore a black jumpsuit to the party.
