Women's suits return to the high street

Women's trouser suits are set to witness a fashion revival this year, new trend reports suggest.
After almost a decade, tailored trousers and jackets will be back in vogue as power dressing makes a welcomed comeback, experts forecast.
Style consultant Sukeena Rao told the Telegraph: "Trouser suits are arriving thick and fast in the cruise collections. This is a new, light, easy-to-wear incarnation pioneered by YSL and Stella McCartney, worn in a casual and sexy, rather than 'hard', way."
Both the quality and cut of women's suits are being highlighted as essential factors to consider when planning a power-tailored wardrobe.
Fashionistas predict a more relaxed take on men's masculine suits for women in 2010, with modern ties and matching shirts. Feminine accessories can soften a corporate look, especially in pastel or nude tones.
Petite women are advised to opt for short jackets, while wide-legged trousers may dwarf a smaller frame.
