Political pundits, journalists and comedians alike have all given Hilary Clinton grief over her collection of power pantsuits. And yet Yves Saint Laurent, foretelling women’s future economic freedom, was hailed as a visionary when he first introduced this look in the 1960s.

Personally I love pantsuits–and you needn’t fear looking like the female version of Gordon Gekko if you add them to your wardrobe. Just think outside the box a bit and you can wear them plenty of places besides the boardroom.

Just look at today’s VPOD. This 1970s Calvin Klein pantsuit in charcoal grey wool looks very hip with a jaunty cap, leather gloves and boots.

It’s a chic way to get suited up for a vintage fashionista!

Available at The Urban Collection.
