Stepping out at the Moss & Freud premiere at the London Film Festival, Kate Moss relied on a classic party outfit formula, of a relaxed two-piece suit, to retain her title as a red carpet icon. Drawing inspiration from women’s tuxedos, the white trouser suit was compiled of a pair of wide-leg trousers and a blazer, with nothing underneath.
When it comes to the best women’s trouser suits for the party season, a tuxedo is hard to beat, delivering polish and flair with minimal smiling needed. While we might be more used to a traditional black iteration with satin lapels, Kate Moss’s choice of an all white design offered a brighter and more modern finish.

Matching with the double-breasted blazer, these suit trousers can be worn with the jacket for a full suited and booted look, or paired separately with everything from shirts to tees and even knitwear.

An outfit formula that will see you well into the festive season, a white trouser suit might feel like a daring ensemble, but this elegant two-piece is a look you can wear on repeat, making it a sound investment.
While you can wear the blazer and trousers together, they can also be worn separately, giving you a polished pair of trousers to team with pretty much anything in your wardrobe, and an additional blazer that will smarten up t-shirt and jeans combinations or dresses.
While Kate opted for a striking plunging neckline by choosing to wear nothing underneath her jacket, don’t let the supermodel put you off this party-perfect look. Simply select a silk cami in a tonal hue, or even a sequined iteration, to keep your outfit dancefloor-ready.
