In a corporate world of casual Fridays, chic dressing for the office also means putting oomph into structured classics. SM Ladies Fashion shows us how to merge style with substance:
Le Smoking Redux. Decades after its debut, le smoking, with its masculine silhouette and dapper details, is back in the spotlight with Raf Simons at Dior, Hedi Slimane at Saint Laurent and Stella McCartney creating their own versions.
Here, sharp pantsuits in black and the de rigueur crisp button-down shirts reflect this elegant trend.
The Corporate Mix. Wear a sharp jacket with straight skirt, printed pants or shift dress. Seal the deal with soft feminine top or oversized structured look.
Skirting the Issue. Depending on your office dress code, you can opt for different skirt styles, ranging from playful ruffle, pleat and flared styles to more sober straight or pencil-cut skirts. These playful skirts are ideal for casual workplaces. Or you can go conservative in A-line skirts.
The Power of Prints. Prints break the monotony of your wardrobe. Look ultra-chic in classic windowpane prints, or smart and polished in optic prints and graphic stripes as seen on the
runways of Marc Jacobs, Stella McCartney and Louis Vuitton.
