[Maydup]

They're OK for work but ike most things, look better on the young ones.

[Psybbo]

Female accountant wearing lilac trouser suit for her 21st Birthday celebration? Don't think so. Did help to disguise the plaster cast.

[Prudie]

Not really. Bit like crimplene, twin sets, nylon sheets and shell suits. Once all the rage hopefully never to return.

[DaisyNonna]

Wistfully, used to love my twin sets. (Always cold).

I think they can look good. Whenever you see the boxer Nicola Adams at an awards ceremony she always wears a trouser suit with a nice blouse and looks fantastic.

There's trouser suits and trouser suits. There's the polyester school uniform type, often issued by firms trying to make employees look serious. Then there's a bespoke men's cut in a nice tropical weight wool, which will set you back hundreds but make you look the business. And permutations inbetween. Difficult to avoid looking like a 1970 wedding photo if you choose bright colours or have the wrong height to width ratio.

i think the wide leg trouser suits look great

I wear trouser suits for meetings at work - as long as they're nicely fitted and not the old style long jacket I think they look very smart. Next do some lovely ones, and if you wear a simple scoop or square-neck shift top underneath, rather than a ruffle or collar, they look even better.

I wore trouser suits all the time when working. They were both smart and practical. I now have a wardrobe full, which I never wear. I must have a clear out!

[Peaspeculiars]

Ps, I'm not an accountant! ;-)

[Tilly2]

PS, neither was I!

[janbee]

I still think they look ok on a tall slim person wearing stilettos. I'm a midget so they've never looked good on me.
