Lots of folks automatically think 80s when they see shoulder pads. What year was it that everything was black or black and white? Was that 92-93 or slightly later?
I would see if this is something figure hugging, or does this sort of hang or is it "figure skimming)? (i guess anything could be figure hugging if you wear it tight enough lol), but that is going to be the difference between this being "clubbing" and this being something that would be more conservative. In the early 90s, the long jacket with the nipped in waist and the shawl collar which was rather conservative would have been paired with a skirt that just skirted the bottom of the jacket and was longer by only a slight bit. I remember having jackets that were midthigh, and one that even went just 3" above my knee. I had a lot of miniskirts (which might be my whole point).from the time that were meant to be conservative to be worn with opaque hose. You would wear it with a high necklined top or a sweater set or a blazer and the leg show didn't seem very tarty when everything else was so buttoned up. In retrospect with all the black tailoredness, I probably looked like a rejected cast member of the Saturday Night Live "Sprockets' sketch rather than as chic as I thought lol. I had round John Lennon like sunglasses at the time as well so I guess it would have worked.
