Maxi skirt with cotton top and paillet embroidery – 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.

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.
