Suit-able for Spring

by Sasha Manuel on January 16th, 2008

We can all expect a whole lot of colours, prints and flowers come Spring but to be fair to the people who aren’t too keen in such bold, feminine statements, we’re looking at a huge dose of masculinity in women sporting suits but not at all looking like men. If you know what I mean.

I reckon these can still come in Spring colours, however, I’m more inclined towards the Gothic, punk, glam-rock edge seen on the suit ensembles that some of the fashion designers put on show. I love the use of graphic prints and shiny fabrics. It does make the whole ‘wearing a suit’ thingie less boring.

I may try them bold colours but I pretty much prefer dark, somber colours. I wonder if I can find the perfect occasion to wear a suit. Hmmm.
