The Tailleur is the counterpart of the men’s suit and, in the 1980s, symbolized the professional rampantism of career women. The first was made in 1885 by English tailor John Redfern for the Princess of Wales, taking up the styles of the so-called German hongreline. The suit made by Redfern was no-frills, paired with masculine accessories (such as a vest and tie), but was anything but comfortable. Despite this, it symbolizes one of the first steps toward women’s emancipation. In the late 1920s Mademoiselle Coco, freed women from unnecessary constraints by making a soft jersey suit, feminine and practical, with a knee-length skirt. In the fashion world, the suit has found much success, especially in ready-to-wear fashion shows. In 1966 Yves Saint Laurent proposed a pantsuit and transformed it into the first women’s tuxedo suit, making it eye-catching and extremely sensual. In the following decades to the present, the pantsuit has paraded on dozens of runways, continually reinventing itself in colors, fabrics and cuts, now rigorous, now provocative, worn like a second skin with nothing underneath, as Armani suggested in 1993. The pantsuit thus discovers its dual soul: on the one hand the confident, convention-defying, masculine and provocative at the same time; on the other hand the fairy-tale allure, romantic and elegant. My pantsuit is in Loro Piana’s 130’s wool fabric, over line and fit; jacket with inside pocket and handmade buttonholes. A timeless garment of women’s fashion.

Black velvet dress
No introduction is needed to the black velvet dress; a timeless staple of the winter wardrobe that gets a makeover. The velvet dress can really have many souls, from office to ceremony. You just need to know how to choose and match it. The black velvet dress, with its versatile, wrap-around and truly feminine appeal, is the ultimate in elegance for a special occasion or end-of-year party. In the haute couture scene, there are many designers who have presented their idea of the velvet dress on the catwalk, redefining the concept of "classic" and shaping it to make it current and cool; there are many variations on the theme, and they do not only concern the fit or the length of the hemline, because the proposals can actually also take shape through the season's trendy colors, which complement the timeless total black look. When you want to be flawless but are in a quandary about what dress to wear, there will always be a velvet dress to solve the situation in a jiffy: it should not be pulled out only for end-of-year parties, or for other special occasions: street style and fashionistas have already flaunted it, turning it into a garment to be used every day, and for every situation, especially for elegant dinners and evenings. My model of black silk velvet dress, long and with a slightly flared bottom; mysterious and charming, it has long sleeves, bias workmanship, with particular play of draping and refined details. Matching it is a handbag lined with silk fabric, containing, inside, a pretty coin purse.
Black crépe cady crop top
Those who were teenagers in the 1990s will certainly remember it: the crop top is that top, either long-sleeved or short-sleeved, that is shorter on the belly and leaves the belly button exposed. The crop top generally has a straight cut; only the fitted version is contoured, which shows off the belly. It is important to choose the right model for each body shape: the more fitted cuts are perfect for those with narrow waists and small breasts such as the pear-shaped woman or the woman who has a rectangle physique, to emphasize the waist more. Those with prosperous breasts or an apple physique should aim for a softer model that hides roundness. The perfect outfit to match the crop top is one that is composed of a high-waisted garment, whether it is a skirt or pants. My crop top is structured-cut in crépe cady fabric, strapless to enhance the décolleté; for a total black outfit, a tailored blazer or an elegant, strapless, structured-cut crop top is recommended, accompanied by pointed ballet flats or an elegant pumps
Linen and silk trouser suit with trousers, jacket and structured top – Bespoke
To dress power in order to express power: this was the categorical imperative followed, for entire generations, by women in order to begin to carve out positions of prominence and, therefore, it was important to find non-verbal communicative codes in order to emphasise this turning point.
The suit, which up to that point still consisted of a skirt and a tunic, is the one that most clearly expressed this transition.
In 1966, Yves Saint Laurent launched Le Smoking, an elegant trouser suit for evening wear. Versatile and elegant, but also youthful and seductive, it is one of the few garments that all women, at least once in their lives, wear. Whether with long, palazzo, cigarette or flared trousers; with a fitted, double-breasted jacket and shocking, garish or total black colours. Constantly evolving, never changing: the ladies' suit is and will remain synonymous with class and sophistication.
The women's trouser suit is an example of ultra-glamorous modern tailoring and the recent catwalks are re-proposing it, designed for hybrid lifestyles, with different combinations under jackets: from a shirt, to a waistcoat, to a structured top or even directly with a closed double-breasted blazer, worn without anything underneath.
Out of the chorus and for those who, while dressing classy, feel like daring, my tailored suit for every occasion is colourful, in bright linen and silk fabric. It has a lined double-breasted jacket with peaked lapels, combined with wide-flared trousers. To make it decidedly more feminine, a top in the same fabric.

Black wool trouser suit – bespoke
In the 1920s, French fashion designer Coco Chanel made her triumphant entrance onto the fashion scene. With a rebellious spirit and an eye for change, Chanel decided it was time to shake things up and did so with the Trouser Tailleur.
Chanel understood that women needed clothes that could cope with their increasing independence and participation in social activities. Giorgio Armani had also understood the revolutionary change. In the 1980s (a time of social change) he emphasised the importance of proposing clothing that was both elegant and functional and redefined the concept of the women's trouser suit, conveying a message of emancipation, class and sophistication.
The history of the pantsuit teaches us that fashion is a way of communicating, expressing ideas and changing the world. Innovation in trouser suits has embraced the idea of customisation, allowing women to tailor the garment to their own taste and lifestyle. Punctually, as in every season, the trouser suit will be the absolute star of the wardrobe. Matching jacket and trousers are a big trend of the last few seasons, and for those coming up, too, it is a trend that is bound to get noticed.
Autumn-Winter is all about wool, as is my Tailleur black pure wool tailored trouser suit and two-button jacket, refined and very elegant combined, in this case, with a pure silk shirt.
Garment entirely made and finished by hand.
