Vera Wang Three cheers for the ladies in pantsuits
Hillary Clinton gave a stirring speech at the Democratic National Convention last night in one of her signature pantsuits, this one a very bright orange. Much has been made of Clinton’s pantsuits during the campaign, the sameness of their cut, their bright colors, their shapelessness. Designers have decried them. Try as we might we could not find a name of the designer of Clinton’s pantsuits, but in searching we did come across some pretty pantsuits to share. Sutton Studio has a basic suit with Hillary-esque longer jacket on sale for $190 at Bloomingdales (pictured, above right). The Le Suit line of pantsuits from J.C. Penney are not high style, but they’re safe and solid, such as one with a long houndstooth coat and black pants, or a brown one (on sale for $100) with similar styling to Clinton’s suits (albeit a little more tailored around the waist). Moving up the price scale, the high-end designer Web site Yoox seems to have the market in expensive Nordstrom has plenty of mix and match jackets and pants, such as a $398 Elie Tahari or a black Kenneth Cole with a cropped jacket cinched at the waist with a stylish skinny belt. You can see all of Nordstrom’s suit offerings on this page. The creator of the women’s pantsuit, the late Yves St. Laurent, was proud that Hillary Clinton wore pantsuits (albeit not any of his). At Style.com, you can review a gallery of St. Laurent’s pantsuits over the years (the one pictured, right, is from his fall 2001 couture collection) to see how many ways he interpreted the style. |
