The Look For Less: Laetitia Casta's Suit Chic

Tuesday, February 12, 2013


On January 21, French model and actress Laetitia Casta arrived at the Christian Dior haute couture fashion show in a beautiful suit dress from Raf Simons' spring/summer collection for the storied fashion house. Her red lips and black veil completed the elegant look. While you could buy her dress from Dior for a pretty penny, some more accessible labels are designing their own take.

My favorite example, a sleeveless tuxedo dress from British label Sass & Bide, is on sale for $290. The silk double breasted dress would look exceedingly chic worn with sheer black tights and long leather gloves or simply paired with a beautiful pair of heels when the weather gets a little warmer. If you're looking for a more exact representation of Casta's look, Haute Hippie sells a long sleeve version. It's a bit pricey, but still a steal compared to Dior.
