"Nothing earth-shattering has happened in men's fashion. How much can you do with men's clothes?" (Calvin Klein)
Quite a lot it seems, Mr Klein, especially when you're a woman. Cue picture of Kate Moss leaving the Groucho Club in London's Soho last night.
Not the only celebrity to have picked up on the trend, Gossip Girl star Leighton Meester was spotted sporting a cropped tux, tie and all, on the red carpet last month by men's tailor, Thom Browne and Dree Hemingway and Pixie Geldof wore masculine suits on the Lanvin for H&M catwalk.
Keep the look chic with slim fitting trousers and a silky shirt. Unless you're a six foot tall Amazonian model (sigh...) heels are also a must. If you're not brave enough yet to wear a tie or even a bow tie à la 30s icon, Marlene Dietrich, try a pussy bow blouse instead. The one below is £28 from Miss Selfridge and pretty enough for daytime but structured enough for the evening. Head to G-Star at ASOS for the best jackets which would go equally well with jeans for a smart casual look.
