A well-cut suit—whether single- or double-breasted—is a forever wardrobe staple. It’s particularly a popular piece for office settings, as the clean, sleek silhouette reads as both confident and professional. That being said, suiting up doesn’t only have to be confined to a fluorescent-lit boardroom. As Kendall Jenner showed this week, a smart two-piece can also be a fresh option for evening party wear.
Last night in Beverly Hills, the model attended a bash for the new Mercedes-Benz G-Class, and she wore a modern suit for the occasion. Her double-breasted style, in a muted olive green shade, was worn without a shirt underneath. It’s a provocative styling choice that we’ve seen on the runways at Victoria Beckham, Stella McCartney, and Schiaparelli recently, instantly making a polished suit feel a little more youthful and sexy. Who needs a button-up? Plus, that color? So good. Consider her look proof that, with the right shape and hue, a structured two-piece can feel just as elegant and dressy as a dress or gown. LBD, who?
