POWER CUTS
This winter, smart dressing gets a whole lot more exciting. The skirt suit
is back – and this time it’s sexy and feminine
STYLING: LIZANNE HARRIS PHOTOGRAPHY: ADRIAN GREEN
WHY WE LOVE
THE TWO-PIECE
Feminine and sexy, this
Prada and Lanvin-inspired
trend works day and night.
After work, swap your shirt
or jumper for a skinny vest,
add sky-high heels and
you’re ready for a cocktail.
THIS SEASON’S RULES
◆ Forties-style cinched-in
waists are a must for jackets.
◆ Layer over fine knits in
clashing colours, or add sex
appeal by wearing over a
leather top or sheer blouse.
◆ Skirts should be kneelength
and pencil thin, or
bell shaped.
