The slit is not off center - there are two vents you just can't see them both in the picture. Also, the skirt isn't hemmed at short as it is on the model. I have this suit.

What would you wear underneath, a camisole of sorts? we threw this outfit together that would work from the office to after work drinks. I like the simplicity of the dress. http://www.what2wearwhere.com/blog/post/2009/11/17/What-to-Wear-Entertaining-Clients.aspx Love the suit – wondering if the jacket might be too short?

Count me as another woman who wishes her slacks and jackets had pockets! On the topic of pockets, does anyone know how feasible it is for a tailor to add pockets to an existing suit?

Wouldn't it be nice if one actually made some designs based upon common threads of opinions exhibited here?

Even more annoying is why do men's suit jackets and blazers have an interior pocket and women's don't? That too annoys me to high heaven. Seriously, I could put my key card, debit card and phone in there and all would be good - and it would look MUCH better than in a pants pocket. I’m with you.

I agree with the concept of pockets, but if the line of the trouser is slim, then there is no place to put a pocket without getting a bulgy look. Men don't have hips so more room for wallet + keys etc. But a big enough pocket into which you could put a card key would be great! I find dresses sometimes have nice pockets, esp with A-line skirts.
