A pin-striped suit is the must-have suit in every working woman’s wardrobe. Cut a chic masculine shape in the ultimate pinstripe suit with a crisp white shirt or bright coloured shirt underneath it.

A pretty plum cardigan and matching wedges make a feminine alternative while adding a few strands of sparkly necklaces and a pair of glitzy shoes instantly transforms this suit into perfect formal attire.

The pinstriped suit is a fashion investment and will live in your wardrobe as a basic piece for many seasons. Make sure you invest in a classic cut where the trousers are tailored to your length and the blazer has a single button with the shape falling just on or below your hips.
