Suit of the Week: Boden

For busy working women, the suit is often the easiest outfit to throw on in the morning. In general, this feature is not about interview suits for women, which should be as classic and basic as you get — instead, this feature is about the slightly different suit that is fashionable, yet professional. Also: we just updated our big roundup for the best women’s suits of 2025!

I’ll be honest: I’m not entirely sure I like this suit from Boden — I’m still deciding. But it definitely makes a statement, so if you’re on the hunt for a lightweight but dramatic suit, look no further.

I do like that the wide stripe is a really unusual pattern — if you’re in a sea of people wearing boring suits, this will definitely get you attention.

Where does Boden imagine you wearing this? To pet a dog… with coworkers… at dusk… on a dock, apparently. Huh. OR you could wear it to a networking event or speaking engagement. You do you!

The blazer comes in 6 different colors, in regular sizes 4-18, and the pants come in regular, petite, and long sizes 2-22. Alas, if you want the matching Bermuda shorts, you’ll have to choose another color.

The suit is part of the 25% off sale going on, so while they were $199-$179, they are now $150-$134.
