FASHION: TUXEDOS FOR THE LADIES

We saw this and thought of you

Menswear for women isn’t anything new on the fashion scene, but lately there’s been a fresh twist on the trend. No longer relegated to the basic slack, or classic button down shirt, the tuxedo is becoming a fast fave among the women of Hollywood when they’re looking to add a splash of masculinity to their wardrobes.

Most recently, Lala Anthony stepped out in a tuxedo inspired look to attend a welcoming party for newlyweds Kim Kardashian and Khris Humphries.

Back in June, actress Tika Sumpter wore a cream, short pants tuxedo look to the 5th Annual Pre-BET Awards Celebration Dinner. She capped off her outfit with black platforms and a sparkly black clutch.

And I know none of us have forgotten Beyoncé’s performance at the 2011 MTV Video Awards. She kept things jazzy as only she can, wearing a purple sequin Dolce & Gabbana tux jacket.

I predict we’ll be seeing more tuxedo inspired looks from celebrity ladies, until then, if you’d like to get in on the trend now, see below for a few wardrobe options.

‘Lurex Tuxedo Jacket’ ($175.50) | ‘Cropped Tuxedo Blazer’ ($177) | ‘Kate Tuxedo Jacket’ ($161) | ‘Oasis Tux Jacket’ ($128)

‘Colorblock Tuxedo Blouse’ ($208) | ‘Rosella Silk Tuxedo Shirt’ ($125) | ‘Tuxedo shirt’ ($150) | ‘Stripe Bib Shirt’ ($64)
