September 2 Vintage Inspirations: Suit Up Suits are aplenty this fall on the runway with everyone from Balenciaga, Givenchy, Marc Jacobs and Stella McCartney clearly influenced by classic vintage suiting. Woven fabrics in patterns like checks, plaids and houndstooth are perfectly paired with cooler temperatures and are always in style. Clean cuts, sharp tailoring and power shoulders? We love 'em all! This week show us your strong suit with 2- or 3-piece suits of all eras for men or women, pant suits, skirted suits, suit jackets and blazers, coordinating outerwear. Wearing vintage will really suit you!
At The Vintage Merchant, we have this skirt suit from the 70s in a delicious dark plaid (bust 38, waist 27): and of course, it can be mixed and matched with co-ordinating separates, too: This subtle pinstripe menswear suit from the 60s has the coolest little polka dot lining:
