Elegance at its Finest A black pantsuit is basically a definition of a classy outfit. A favourite of both men and women, it is also a staple in any wardrobe. And though the history of a woman's suit may not be as long as that of a male’s one, it is interesting nevertheless, especially when you look back and see how it evolved throughout the years. The first suits for women appeared in the 17th century and were used for horse riding. Unlike dresses and skirts, they were much more comfortable (obviously) to wear and provided greater freedom of movement. Naturally, back in the days, the choice of women’s suits wasn’t as big as it is now and most of the suits seen on women presented a very simple combination of a skirt, a coat or a fitted jacket. A suit that was extremely popular among women and defines the fashion of the 19th century is a suit consisting of a skirt and a shirt. Usually, this suit was worn for walks and casual outings. By the way, it’s worth noting that before World War II, “suits” belonged to the men’s wardrobe and women’s suits were known as “costumes”. The trend for skirt suits with jackets didn’t fade and stayed in fashion up to the middle of the last century, with the slight change in the length of the skirt. That is to say, the skirt became shorter and shorter. Around this time, in the 1970s, the fashion scene was hit with pantsuits (trouser suits) that very quickly won the hearts of thousands of women and became an irreplaceable addition to any classy wardrobe. When it comes to black solid suits, those are perfect to create a bold and elegant look. You can pair it with a shirt and high heels or go for a top with trainers and still look stunning and powerful while feeling comfortable at the same time. What’s more, just like any black clothing, black suits are easy to style. Try wearing it with different tops you have in your wardrobe and in most cases, the result will be fantastic. So, if you want to flaunt a perfect chick look, consider getting one of the pantsuit or black solid skirt suits from our collection.
