A lot of grown up celebrities are making this childhood favourite a must-have fashion trend. But how fashionable is it, really? Check out the following celebrities wearing dungarees and be sure to let us know who wore it best!
1 Alexa Chung
Alexa Chung sure does love her dungarees and she’s definitely a contender for who wore it best. I wouldn’t be surprised if her fondness for dungarees has something to do with their rising popularity. Here she teams a washed out black pair of dungarees with a simple white blouse, quirky flats, and a chic quilted handbag.

6 Jameela Jamil
British television presenter Jameela Jamil shows us that you can wear your dungarees in a more polished way. She teams her short denim dungarees with a polka dot blouse, chic white blazer and pointy heels. The look is fun and playful, but without the rough and tumble feel you usually get from dungarees.

Helena Christensen works a different angle and wears her dungarees in a dusty pink colour. Coloured dungarees are a great alternative to your usual blue denim varieties. She teams her dungarees with a pink singlet underneath and with brown ballet flats. The red jacket tied around the waist also gives this outfit a very '90s feel.

She’s mostly famous for wearing dungarees as Joey in ‘Dawson’s Creek’ but Katie Holmes also wears them in real life. She wears her dungarees cuffed at the ankles and with simple lace up shoes. She covers up with a black cardigan and sports some red sunnies for a bit of colour.
10 Alexa Chung (Again)
This is Alexa’s second entry on the list, mainly because she seems to wear dungarees all the time! Here she teams short navy dungarees with a classic striped top and espadrille wedges. It’s a very French inspired look.
