Suit of the Week: Brooks Brothers – Corporette.com

Suit of the Week: Brooks Brothers – Corporette.com

For busy working women, the suit is often the easiest outfit to throw on in the morning. In general, this feature is not about interview suits for women, which should be as classic and basic as you get — instead, this feature is about the slightly different suit that is fashionable, yet professional.

This one is a little out of season — but I have a feeling that the person who buys this one won’t really care whether it’s pre- or post-holiday season.

I don’t quite know why but I’m tickled by this velvet pants suit, covered with tiny velvet ducks. Is it preppy? Absolutely. Is it also a little rock n roll? I think yes – for some reason I could totally see some of the rockers who wear suits (Maneskin, perhaps?) also wearing this one.

(Huh: Or… has the velvet + frilly top made me think of Austin Powers? Hmmn.)

Either way: I still think this is a fun suit, and I think you could get a lot of wear out of the pieces both separately and together.

The pieces are on sale: they were $298-$498, but are now marked to $119-$199.

(And for those of you who like the matchy-matchy look with your partners: there is a jacket for men as well.)

Psst: another great candidate for April 1, were it on a Wednesday. Le sigh.
