The Chic Lady inspires career women through fashion. Fashion that captivates women who are married to their jobs, have places to be and work to manage. We saw a great deal of classic lady-like silhouettes in ready-to-wear collections for this fall. Designer brands like Prada, Yirantian, Marc Jacobs, Miu Miu and Philosophy di Lorenzo Serafini served as the inspiration behind the styling, each of which showcased workwear with feminine touches. Blazers, skirts and sleek flats paired with sheer tights and black sunglasses, all in a classic black-and-white scheme. The chic lady is a woman in power who dresses to impress as a self-made leader. Chic ladies are go-getters for their work and handle things with their own hands because they’re in charge. Women are transforming the workplace with their high-end independence and power to feed the ambitions of other working women, and it’s evident in all industries. They pay the bills, support their own life and dominate, achieving success confidently in their career-oriented lifestyle. The Chic Lady embodies the young women of Verge.
