For female wedding guests who gravitate toward architectural tailoring over traditional floral chiffon, a ladies' trouser suit or structured blazer-and-wide-leg-trouser pairing is the ultimate quiet-luxury statement. Inspired by Parisian eveningwear in The French Capsule, modern wedding suiting combines sharp double-breasted lapels with fluid, floor-skimming trousers that move like a gown.
