Steele Flying High: Double-Breasted Black Suit, White Blouse with High Collar and Deep V

Laura's office wear is often an array of suits in the first season. In later seasons, she mixes things up a bit even when interviewing clients.

Hello and welcome to Laura Holt's Closet! Today we explore another ensemble from "Steele Flying High" (Season 1, Episode 12 of "Remington Steele").

The Outfit

Laura wears a black, calf-length, double-breasted suit with her signature peep-toe pumps, also black. As we've said before, this color is a tad too severe for Laura in a plain suit. Her petite frame looks a bit weighed down. 

Black works best on her as the dominant color when there are metallic or jewel tones involved to catch the eye. When we finally get to evening wear you'll see.

What stands out on today's outfit is the blouse. 

The romantic puffed sleeves, the satin ribbon contrasting with the matte of the rest of the blouse, the high collar trimmed in lace...this is one of the most flattering of Laura's blouses. It seems slightly Victorian; it certainly softens the severe suit.

Let's recreate this look.

--------------------------------- 

Worn with an open collar, the vintage recreation of a Victorian blouse might do. Or else just wear a standard white oxford shirt and call it a day. 

What will Laura wear next?
