Survey reveals what gay men really want for Christmas

what gay men want for christmas

If you’re looking for non-traditional trends this winter, then you might want to save some of your holiday budget for this season’s latest menswear craze: one-piece jumpsuits, onesies, rompers, and overalls.

In a recent poll by Differio.com—the USA’s top online gay fashion store—gay male customers were quizzed over which items they wanted most for the holidays.

Poll options included: onesies; shoes; bags; jeans; jackets; jewellery; sweaters and grooming products.

Among these menswear categories, onesies were found to be the most popular.

Differio reported that men’s jumpsuits, onesies, rompers and overalls are all popular items during Pride month.

However, customers have been buying one-piece styles all year round, regardless of Pride season’s peak in June.

Style icons like David Bowie have meant that jumpsuits have been a popular look in gay fashion since the 1970s.

Even Gilbert baker (LGBT+ activist and designer of the rainbow flag) confessed in an interview with Refinery 29 that “taffeta jumpsuits” were one of the reasons he bought his first sewing machine in 1972. He confessed he wanted to “look like Mick Jagger and David Bowie.”

The year Vogue declared that, “overalls for men are happening, big time.”

Esquire included a “dude romper” among the top styles spotted at Coachella 2018, and British GQ advised readers they should “jump into a jumpsuit” for the spring season.

While jumpsuits, rompers, and overalls for men definitely make a bold statement, they’re also some of the easiest pieces to throw on and look great.


Differio pride itself on its diverse selection of men’s rompers, jumpsuits, onesies and overalls for all occasions.

Going-Out Jumpsuits

Going-out jumpsuits for men are an effortless way to get dressed up— especially if you’re in a rush. There’s need to worry about mixing and matching shirts and trousers!

Differio suggest opting for a jumpsuit with luxe accents, like this men’s black long sleeve jumpsuit with utility zippers.

Themed Onesies

Whether you’re into bears or wolves, today’s themed onesies are available in almost every design imaginable.

Usually made in chunky knit or soft jersey, you’ll find an eclectic variety on Differio from the devil onesie to cuddly animal onesie.

Casual One-Pieces

If you’re looking for a one-piece that fits in with your streetwear style, Differio’s casual rompers, overalls and jumpsuits should be your wardrobe staple.

From jersey overalls to short sleeve jumpsuits, the latest one-pieces are updated with a slim-fit silhouette and jogger-style legs.

From skinny overalls to patterned rompers, you can wear these styles for virtually any low-key occasion.

Outdoorsy Jumpsuits

If you’re more of the outdoors type, Differio stock a range of jumpsuits designed in wind-resistant, resilient materials.

You can wear this statement piece to large festivals, like Coachella or Burning Man, but it’s also casual enough for everyday!
