Before women routinely wore trousers, the late actress, singer and performer Marlene Dietrich had a penchant for them, most notably from Knize of Vienna. In the photo she is a business casual pioneer, pairing her jacket and trousers with a knit turtleneck.
It's an ageless look for people of either sex.

I like her as an actress, and I can appreciate that the quality of her clothes is high, but I am not at all a fan of this look on women.
Hello
Just thought I'd let you know that your website is very nice and informative. I will be starting college next year, and have been purchasing clothes. Though I am a 'teenager' (personally I prefer the term young man, yet another of my conservative traits), I like dressing sharply, but still trying to wear something age-appropriate. I did purchase a short Grey wool car-coat, which was extremely nice.
I had a question, would you consider wearing shirts (i.e sports or western, etc.), and polos, but with dark jeans, and leather shoes well dressed. Or would it be too casual, and, for lack of a better phrase, 'un-sartorial'?
Much regards,
Mohamed Hossam
