No matter fashion’s mood, a sleek and strong suit will forever stay in style. This sentiment was especially true during this season’s fashion week, where many a stylish showgoer was spotted sporting some version of a chic suit. The three-piece suit, for example, got a major shoutout when Margot Robbie stepped out in a matching gray blazer, suit vest, and trousers—all from Mango. Robbie’s traditional menswear garment was tailored to perfection and enduringly chic. (Shop the actress’ exact suit, below). There’s a reason why a classic suit is a timeless wardrobe essential—it can work just as well for a casual, yet cool daytime look as it can for dressy nights out. For fall, it’s also the perfect fashion foundation for layering; oversized suit options will fit even your chunkiest knitwear smoothly underneath. Even better, the best women’s suits are a one-and-done outfit, plus they’ll never let you down no matter where you take them. Worn to a party, the office, a dinner, or even fashion week, the suit will help you thrive.
Suits for women have an unexpected, yet welcome wide range to choose from–think your classic pinstripe picks and camel-colored suits to more out-there options like a colorful or printed suit. The timeless outfit combination also pairs well with any accessory in mind, whether a menswear-inspired loafer, an It sneaker, or a heeled platform sandal. Each of these sleek and strong suits offers an elevated approach to wardrobe fundamentals, proving to be a lasting style staple in each and every closet.
The styling options of the best women’s suits are endless, just ask this street style set. Below, prepare to shop and sport the season’s 10 best women’s suits that are equally as stylish as they are smart.
The Three-Piece Suit
When Margot Robbie made a case for the three-piece suit, it was anything, but stuffy. Courtesy of Mango, Robbie’s suit is both sleek and stylish. Not to mention that the suit vest is another It fall trend that celebrities and street stylers can’t get enough of. Robbie styles her charcoal gray suit with ladylike slingback pumps from Prada.
The Pop of Pink
Ease any upcoming winter blues with the help of a colorful pink suit à la Elaine Welteroth. From Alexander McQueen, this neon-pink double-breasted blazer paired with matching suit pants is statement-making in and of itself. Like Welteroth, style the look with a suede bag from Nanushka and a chunky gold necklace from Paco Rabanne.
The Pinstripe Pick
When it comes to classic suiting, nothing is as timeless as a pinstripe suit like this one from Zara. This off-duty model modernizes the old fashion faithful courtesy of satin platform sandals from Porte Paire and a polished leather shoulder bag from Staud.
The Camel-Colored Suit
Another staple, yet statement-making suit is a camel-colored suit. Nanushka’s ‘Giedre’ suit is classically cut, but includes a split-cuff trouser for added edge. Like this street styler, finish off the look with a pair of retro studded clogs from Re/Done and a brown handbag from Wandler.
The Suit and Tie
For your next black tie event, why not consider a literal suit and tie? Inspiration comes from none other than Irina Shayk, who makes the traditional menswear garment effortlessly chic like only she can. Get the look from Cos, Theory, and Charvet.
The Perfect Plaid
Unlike other plaid suits in your closet, this one from Gucci is the strongest and sleekest of them all. The mixing of the two plaid prints is perfect in a way that only Gucci achieves. Underneath your new checked blazer, sport a crisp striped button up from J.Crew. For footwear, pointed-toe pumps from Neous bring the entire look together.
The Gray Go-To
The Frankie Shop’s easy, yet effortless approach to wardrobe essentials is one to invest in this fall. The brand’s ‘Bea’ oversized gray blazer with matching suit pants is proven magic in your closet. Like this street styler, make the look extra sultry and style a sequin bra from Khaite underneath. Shine on with crystal-embellished heels from Zara.
Where the Wild Things Are
For the fearless fashionista, Alessandra Rich’s zebra-printed suit is not one to shy away from. Neutralize the over-the-top print with a plain, but perfect black T-shirt from Everlane underneath. Why not keep the zebra-fest going and sling this zebra-printed bag from 8 Other Reasons over your shoulder?
The Oversized Option
An oversized suiting option like this one from LouLou Studio features a bigger-the-better silhouette that still manages to feel perfectly polished. Even more, it acts as the ideal wardrobe foundation for all of your fall layering pieces like cashmere sweaters. Like this stylish showgoer, finish the look off with a furry bag from Mango and pointed-toe pumps from The Row.
The Sporty Suit
Like we said, a sleek and strong suit has range in your closet, pairing well with even your most favorite worn-in sneakers. H&M’s light wash suit is a great starting point for accessories like New Balance’s 574 sneakers and Gucci’s ‘Ophidia’ bag to shine.
