Sure, suits were traditionally designed for men. But there's no denying that they, well, suit women better. Sorry, fellas. Just look at Blake Lively. She has been killing it in back-to-back suits for months now. And this fall, the power suit trend is continuing to explode with oversized checkered options, corduroy designs, and whimsical pastel finishes taking over stores and runways.

Tom Ford added a wild and sexy twist to the workwear essential by covering blazers and trousers in leopard prints. And we can't forget the neon suiting spotted at Moschino, Carolina Herrera, and the Marc Jacobs Fall 2018 runway shows. The statement-making updates are enough to make anyone excited to head to the office. Plus throwing on a matching set makes getting dressed in the morning a cinch.
