Introducing the New Power Suit
For an instantaneous confidence boost, we turn to the power suit. Whether it's a big job interview or a first date, the power suit exudes confidence. On trend for a few years now, however, the bold suit is due for an update. So as we enter fall 2020, we're looking for a new perspective on the trend, a unique spin on the classic look.
Luckily, the sartorial world is on the same page. This season, the style is getting a makeover with cutout blazers, mixed-and-matched sets, and the addition of a sophisticated vest for an elevated look no one else will have.
Ahead, how to step up your style with the new power suit.
