LUX Look: Power Pantsuits
Pantsuits are no longer solely suited to politicians and power players. Now the ladies can rock the lapels with hot new menswear-inspired looks for spring. From Balmain’s rock’n’roll gold pinstripes to Rochas’ black velvet bootleg – the women of the runway are bringing back Wall Street.
Balmain
Length is the key word for his vertically minded line. Pinstripes, wide leg trousers and black boots gave the models an extra boost. Although, this is the matchiest model of the bunch, even the mixed separates showed that structure is a smart component for spring’s wardrobe.
Balenciaga
This isn’t Hillary’s suit. Cropped in metallic shades of silver and gunmetal grey, Balenciaga put a spring in his step for the new suit season. Pastels and muted prints chopped up the modern blazers, perfect fit for the unrestrained artist.
Rochas
Who said suits had to be stiff? Rochas brings their signature fun and femininity to the standard suit. The velvet set, finished with whimsical cuffs and a ruffled blouse, is a soft and luxurious option for a gal that refuses to play by the rules.
