These are the Suiting Trends We are Loving Right Now
It used to be that a dress was the first thing on anyone’s shopping list - whether it be the classic black dress or a floral one—but this season, consider a suit set. We’ve come a long way from the days where suiting up was just for the boys, and we now look to a suit for a variety of occasions thanks to their chic form and function. From donning a two-piece suit to your next fancy occasion to weekday wear and more, read on for this season’s inspiration.
A Skirt Suit for Workwear
A fresh take on the 9 to 5 suit
Co-ords have been a front-row fixture for seasons now, evolving through fresh updates and reimagined cuts. And now, the skirt suit is taking the workwear fashion reins. A nod to the ‘90s perhaps, the skirt suit trend is more elevated and polished than ever. Think boucle blazers, checks and tailored shapes. A more feminine approach to the classic blazer and pants suit trend, expect skirt-suit sets that are just as at home paired with their matching pieces as they are individually. The choice is yours. Modest dress code? Wear stockings with a pair of pumps or stylish loafers and don’t forget your trench coat for when the temperature drops. Highly versatile, these will be just as easy to wear with the workwear staples already in your wardrobe.

Suiting to Replace a Dress
Instant glam
We’re taking style cues from the red carpet for inspiration on how to wear a two-piece suit to your next event. Suits aren't all work and no play, and these days you don’t have to reach for a dress for a special occasion, a suit can look just as elegant and classy. When choosing a suit jacket and pants combination, consider colour for a powerful take on a seriously cool outfit. Layer a satin cami underneath a blazer or opt for a pop of print to take your suiting to the next level.
Stand out in colour like a soft pink or go head to toe in monochrome and accessorise with polished pumps and a smokey eye for instant glam. Consider shimmery metallic pieces for layering or accessorising as a great way to break up a monochromatic outfit. A shiny clutch or a pair of sleek boots are a sure-fire to elevate your look. Just make sure the cut is perfect, the fabric is smooth and you keep the rest of your look elegant and feminine.

Suiting for Casual Wear
Head to toe cool
This just in, you can look chic while being totally comfortable. Hardly ground-breaking, we know – but we are getting on board with the dressing-down approach to casual styling as a break away from athleisure outfits. Consider a more relaxed approach to dressing to leave the house, without compromising elegance.
When picking a suit jacket or blazer to wear casually, opt for a relaxed fit in soft fabrications or an oversized fit. Style your blazer with a vintage-style tee, your favourite high waisted denim and on-trend slides for head to toe cool. Stack gold jewellery and round tortoiseshell sunnies and whether you’re running to the supermarket or grabbing coffee with a friend, you could easily be mistaken for a street style star with very minimal effort.

Suits to Love
The line between business and weekend attire is slowly dissolving; gone are the days when suiting was solely worn from nine to five. For a brief moment in time, practicality reigns supreme, lap it up while it lasts.
