Tuxedo style: fashion trend of 2008 / 2009

Written by Tania Braukamper


Kate Moss has already showed us how to sex one up; and now, 2008 is officially the year of the tuxedo jacket.

Did I say jacket? I meant suit. Or shirt. Or pants. Whatever, tuxedo/dinner suit-inspired clothing (however you decide to do it) is certainly on trend for 2008.

The Spring / Summer 2008 runway shows were littered with tuxedo elements - from the metallic high-sheen suiting of Jens Laugesen to the tuxedo-inspired shirting at Miu Miu.

Don't worry boys - they're back for you too. But in the meantime a dinner jacket or bibbed tuxedo shirt are the perfect way for a girl to pull off a masculine look with ultimate sex appeal. If you're going for the dinner jacket, don't forget to team it with a hot mini or sleek skinny pants.

There aren't too many alpha-females out there and, though she might deny it, Tania Braukamper certainly exudes their qualities. A keen eye, a focused approach, and a wardrobe spanning three rooms have made her one of the savviest of dressers. But it's not all couture for Tania, earning her fashionista credentials she'll frequently be seen on the town in a one-off, vintage dress and a pair of Gucci heels.

She says: Vintage will never go out of style
We say: Does that include vintage 80s?
