A fruit-colored suit that will put you in a good mood

It was not until the 70s of the 19th century that women wore suits, when men had been wearing suits for more than 200 years.

The development of women's suits is closely linked to freedom and power. This "power suit" is also constantly evolving, reflecting the process of women's emancipation and rising status.

In the 70s of the 19th century, the famous French actress Sarah Bernhardt shocked Paris by wearing a custom-made pantsuit suit, which she called "boys' clothes".

European women of that period began to wear elaborate jackets and long skirts for activities such as horseback riding, archery, and walking, and the trendsetters continued to make them routine. By 1905, this had become an ordinary women's suit.

By 1910, women's enthusiasm for political participation was on the rise, and there were more requirements for dress, and they wanted to be able to "have a shirt and jacket, and an ankle-length skirt that allowed the wearer to stride." Thus, the first women's suit was born.

While Chanel conjures up images of fresh femininity and pink elegant perfume bottles, Ms. CoCo Chanel was actually one of the first designers to take on menswear designs and repackage them for women. In 1914, Ms. CoCo designed her first suit, a fur-trimmed jacket and a matching ankle-length dress. She was inspired by a man's wardrobe.

In 1964, André Courrèges introduced an ultra-thin, minimalist trouser suit for both day and night. Until then, women had only worn pants in informal settings.

In 1966, Yves Saint Laurent designed the first tuxedo for women, named Le Smoking, one of Yves Saint Laurent's most recognizable designs, inspired by the 19th-century men's smoking jacket. Le Smoking was stylish, bold, and edgy, in keeping with the thriving feminist politics of the time.

In the '70s, as more and more women entered the workforce and entered men's clubs, they needed a symbol to prove that they were just as serious and capable as the men who took the elevator with them to the office. Obviously, the only way to convince a male-dominated board of directors is to imitate their appearance and put on a serious suit.

In the 80s of the 20th century, suits with padded shoulders, decorative buttons and bright feminine colors began to become popular among office women and spread to everyday life.

Giorgio Armani has been the driving force behind this process, and it has been commented that Armani revolutionized women's fashion, especially for serious professional women, with a sought-after new style that "obscured the woman's figure with wide shoulders and trousers, diverting attention from her gender and creating a sense of authority at a time when traditional gender roles continue to blur."

After the 90s, with the rise of women's status in business and politics, there is no need to borrow the "power suit" of the last century to prove their status. As a result, women's suits began to have more fashion attributes, and designers began to adopt a softer and more romantic way to interpret them. It has become more designed, more diverse, more fashionable and more varied, and has become a trendy item that is both high-end and fashionable.

This season's Spring/Summer women's suits are dominated by vibrant tropical fruit colours, taking the runways by iconic brands and avant-garde designers from Giorgio Armani to Yves Saint Laurent, Chanel to Balenciaga, Matthew Adams Dolan to Marine Serre.

If you're looking to spice up your boring workday, a Friday outfit in one of the season's most popular fruit-coloured suits is definitely the best way to turn the mood around!

The key point of matching is the word relaxed! There is no need to match a shirt inside a suit, and even a silk shirt is not the best choice.

If you're more confident, not wearing it inside is actually the most trendy way to wear it. Or, choose a round-necked or low-necked, white or earthy-toned, fitted top that will fit the season's trends!

For accessories, a small bag will suffice, and be careful not to carry another huge file bag. If the occasion allows, small white shoes will be an excellent choice, otherwise, a pair of simple and elegant light high heels without any decoration will be completely competent!

If you feel that the fruit color is too bright and want to be a little more low-key, then a set of aqua blues that can calm your mood will be a great choice!

 So that you can conform to the trend at the same time, without losing the elegant temperament.

This season's hottest fruit-colored suit is definitely a good spice for life!

 I hope wearing it will bring you a good mood!
