For busy working women, the suit is often the easiest outfit to throw on in the morning. In general, this feature is not about interview suits for women, which should be as classic and basic as you get — instead, this feature is about the slightly different suit that is fashionable, yet professional. Also: we just updated our big roundup for the best women’s suits of 2024!
I tend to think of Lafayette 148 New York as “the grown up in the room,” if that makes sense, amongst companies making designer suits. They’re not flashy, they’re not daring — no feathers or weird shoulders — they’re just incredibly classic, well made suits.
They can be a bit pricy, though, so I always take note when they go on sale. Nordstrom just began a big “Early Black Friday” sale (there are SO MANY “early Black Friday” sales this year!), and this wool and silk suit is included in the mix. I love the light gray color.
Both pieces are 40% off — the blazer was $1298, but is now marked to $779, and the trousers were $798, but are marked to $478.
(Other quick notes in the sale: good savings on this reader favorite blazer from Cinq à Sept, these reader favorite bras, Cole Haan jackets, and loafers from Sam Edelman.)
