day to night : the suit
8 years ago by
Love this simple black suit worn by Racil – it’s that perfect ensemble to illustrate just how easy it is to take a look from day to night. Her eponymous line of suits, by the same name, have kind of filled that void of a suit for all occasions. With the ability to show playful versatility when worn with sneakers and a tee while the sun is out, and simplifying one step further for evening : a red pump and a bold earring. It’s just the type of look we love!
Racil, born in Beirut and raised in Paris, has a sense of nonchalance and elegant amusement that even her pearl sunnies can’t hide …. It’s just that disposition that helped her to create a le smoking that felt a bit less stiff, and one not just for the evening. Her collection includes the classic black and white versions, but also pastels, poppy fuchsia’s and next season, luxurious velvet robe coats!
It’s a good reminder that the perfect black suit, be it a tux or a three piece suit tailored to you, is an item worth investing in. Something you can can take cues from the men and turn into something else, something quite feminine. After all, it’s 2016 – women can wear the pants too!
I think nowadays we live such fast lives and are always on the go! It is nice to know that you can transform such an elegant outfit as the Tuxedo and make it work from day to night, or night to day… ;-)
I like to wear mine with trainers and a vintage t shirt during the day and then freshen up quickly, add heels and some red lipstick and I’m ready to go to the nicest dinner! The tuxedo becomes versatile while keeping its perfect elegance and you are never under dressed nor over dressed!

I don’t know, I feel like the wide-leg cropped pant is a cut that looks good on almost no one…
It’s so easy and elegant…you can even wear it with a great jeans that will look also great for an evening…it’s the attitude that change when you work your hair ,makeup..great Stiletto..and you are ready for evening…
although you can’t tell me it’s not a pleasure when you have some time to take a bath breath and than put a nice dress …and only than go out….it’s a luxury solution but we need to learn to pose between one moment and another…
after all our life is in our hand!!!

Nice take on the black suit, just not a fan of the white sneakers. Where’s Garance? Enjoying her podcasts.

I love the whole suit but the pant length just makes the look even cooler! Beautiful.

J’aime tellement ce style, simple et parfait !
I love this suit! And the pants she’s wearing are amazing! I can’t find the pants online though – there’s only a tapered style. Which pants are those?
Wowww… I’m usually not a big fan of suit but these pictures changed my mind. I love how she pairs a black suit with sneakers and red heels. Stunning!
The cropped flared pants worn with the white sneakers showing here ankles is a game changer! I’ve a jeans like that but it looks so cool when it comes in shape of a suit pants!

A suit is just a good office to bar look, especially when you change into killer red heels like those! x

Continue the great work. Best, MODENOVA
Normally I hate suits, but I am about to reconsider my sentiments after seeing this lovely editorial!
To hell with the suit … I want the orange DC2 and the guy driving it.
