5 Summer Power Suits To Help You Dress For Success On All Occasions

Esteemed street-style photographer Bill Cunningham called fashion “the armour to survive the reality of everyday life”. I find this to be particularly true with the power suit. Something about wearing a power suit makes you exude confidence and feel it too.  

Designer Joseph Altuzarra once called pantsuits “a symbol of female empowerment and strength”. A well-fitting blazer and matching trousers began to play a major role in feminism of the 70s and 80s, adapting to the shifting gender roles in the workplace.

No matter her profession, a power suit is essential to every women’s wardrobe. Especially when July translates to “back to work!” for many who’ve been #WFH since the COVID-19 outbreak began.

In preparation for going back to the office and life itself, here’s five power suits to help you dress successfully for every occasion.
