Suit of the Week

1-2This suit is, admittedly, a mixed bag. The pros: We love, love, love the shape of it. The skinnier pants, the longer jacket — if you can pull this off, you’ll look like a model. The cons: you generally must be SHAPED like a model in order to pull this off — also, the edge trimming is a bit too… funky for our tastes. But it is a designer suit, and certainly one you could wear to the office. Available at Yoox.com (size 6 only, bien sûr) for $395 (was $475). Galliano Spring-Summer Suit. Readers, please write in — have you seen any great suits lately? (Any suits in this cut?)

  3. Even out here in LA, where we are a lot less formal than NY or Southern law firms, this would not fly. I am pretty sure wearing this to work would make you the subject of significant mockery in the office.

  7. This is basically a hot mess. It’s absolutely disgusting. And I come from the art world…

  8. Do some pants innately “cause” camel toes, or is that a feature of improper fit? Those pants seem to have caused both a camel toe and puckering at the hips…ouch.

  12. I cannot imagine anyone wearing this suit and looking anything other than ridiculous. Terrible!

  14. I usually love the suit of the week, but I was very surprised to see this pick. It is not even flattering on the model, and would definitely stand out (in a bad way) at at any firm, even those with a more relaxed dress code.

  17. Wow, not only is it camel-toe-y, the lapels don’t lie right either. Happy May Fool’s Day?

  18. Sorry, NOT a fan! I’m too curvy to wear this anyway, but even if I could, I think it’s ugly (even ignoring the trim).
