(1) You may not have worn trouser suits since the 1990s, but the power-dressing classic is back, writes Harriet Walker.
(2) Twenty years on, trouser suits are back. Yes, they were on the catwalks this season (in camel at Altuzarra, polka-dot silk at Bottega Veneta and chintzy floral print at Gucci) but, more to the point, they were on the front row, too, worn by fashion editors.
(3) The "pantsuit" is also likely to take centre stage during Hillary Clinton’s presidential campaign over the next 12 months. Her first Instagram post featured a rail of them in patriotic red, white and blue.
(4) Suffice it to say, Clinton’s fondness for rainbow hues and colour-blocking -not to mention Angela Merkel’s beige-on-beige look - isn’t quite the way the fashion crowd is styling theirs.
(5) Editors are wearing trouser suits in navy (not black) and pinstripe (faint, narrow) over T-shirts and high-necked knitwear (shirts are too predictable; blouses are for squares), with trainers (Adidas Stan Smiths, or Senso’s white-with-a-hint-of-gold Andy III style).
(6) They are keen on wide and straight-leg styles rather than anything too skinny (leave that look to ageing rockers and the Saint Laurent crowd) and their blazers are sharp without being too structured - keep it unbuttoned for a relaxed feel.
(7) Fashion editors are wearing trouser suits because they’re comfortable and practical, not because they want a promotion or a reputation for ballbusting.
(8) "Life’s too fast and time’s too precious to be faffing around with separates," says Elle’s Rebecca Lowthorpe, a veteran trouser-suitwearer whose wardrobe contains versions from Margaret Howell, Richard Nicoll and 1205.
(9) "A suit works because it’s essentially one easy piece which, unlike a dress, hides a multitude of lumps and bumps. I’d even go so far as to say it can make you feel more ready to attack the day... the trouser suit is the latest way of saying that you’re fashionably over being fashionable."
(10) Roughly translated, that means you want to look smart and current, but not like you’ve tried to look smart, or current. In a trouser suit, goes the logic, you can relax in the knowledge of your own superbly on-trend style credentials and actually get on with your work.
(11) While the power-dressing look might have dropped off (take note: oversized lapels and jutting shoulders are not part of this revival), suits are still a great equaliser.
(12) Last time around, the trouser suit was armour for the workplace or camouflage for your curves, and it - unsurprisingly perhaps - had all the unflattering qualities of each. Since its last peak of popularity in the 90s, it has declined from being empowering to becoming the sort of thing people wear to make a point. The androgynous look; the Annie Hall gamine; the sexy tuxedo worn over bare skin on the red carpet. These versions all feel more like costumes than clothes.
(13) Avoid anything too stiff and severe for fear of looking like Eurythmics-era Annie Lennox. On normal people (i.e., not models) monochrome is more Blues Brothers than Helmut Newton. Look for trousers that suit your body shape.
