Has anyone ever worn this outfit in the history of time?

March 12, 2015 5:22 AM

I'm looking for pictures of a woman wearing a pantsuit. But not just any woman wearing a pantsuit.

I am trying to find a photo of a petite, busty woman wearing a pantsuit in flats, but stylish. More this and less Hilary Clinton. According to the internet, this has never been done before. I've found tall busty women wearing pantsuits in flats, petite non-busty women wearing pantsuits and flats, petite busty women wearing pantsuits in heels, and of course skirt suits with all types of body and shoe combinations. I don't mind if the jacket is a different color from the trousers, as long as it's clearly a suit.

I'm not sure, but if I understand what you're describing it seems like something Alison Brie has worn on Community, and she is both petite and busty. In particular, I think the episode(s) that spoof Law and Order have her character, Annie, in a stylish pantsuit with conservative shoes/flats.

Googling for it doesn't find me much, so you might have to watch an episode of the show, but I think it fits the bill. Hard to say, though. without knowing what you need it for.

Here are a few of varying levels of "busty" -

Yellow Contemporary
Not petite, but...
Gray suit, green flats

Marlene Deitrich

I found most of these images searching for androgynous women's fashion. That might be a search term to explore.

Hmm.

Maybe try Pinterest or Instagram?

I did some kicking around and found https://www.pinterest.com/kurlykarli/clothing-style/. If you search by tags, you might find more.

The Women in Suits Tumblr might be another place to look.

Imelda Marcos in pantsuit and flats
Ellen DeGeneres isn't all that busty nor is she petite, but she always wears pants and flats.

Rhianna in a suit with flats.. Kristen Stewart in suits with flats.
Nicole Kidman

Tilda Swinton (who's not "busty") & Uma Thurman (who is) often wear suits with flats, but I think they're both taller women.

You might try a site search at Tom and Lorenzo. It's mostly actresses in publicity shots--so it's mostly heels but usually busty and otherwise petite--but here are a couple, so there are probably more:

Shailene Woodley; Rose McGowan (this page)

She's not quite wearing flats (low heels?) but she looks amazing and colourful.
