Irmamar - I don't consider that "overalls", so maybe we're not talking about the same thing. Here's what I consider to be "overalls":

Nah - Irma's picture is what I would call overalls. What you are showing isn't over all, it's over most of you, and I don't know what they are called.

As irma, we call what she showed a "mono" and what you showed "overalls", but I guess both are "overalls". Aren't they?

La foto de Irma es como "hazardous work suit" or algo así para protectarse de algo, el frió , el calor, los chemicales, etc. the only thing overalls do is complete the farmer´s look

The term "overalls" makes sense to apply to Irma's picture, but I would call that a "jumpsuit". No, my picture doesn't look something that is OVER ALL ... but that's what I would call "overalls". Must be a Br/E vs. Am/E thing.......
