Hands in pockets. Always. Gunmetal metallic trousers, tapered, with a pressed crease, and a black one-shoulder bodysuit cut out at the neckline and the waist. Black suede pointed pumps. Nothing on my hands, so the pockets get them. Wear it to a gallery. No belt, no jacket.
Gunmetal coated trousers with a tapered leg and pressed crease, worn with a black one-shoulder bodysuit cut out at the neckline and waist, and black pumps.
Gunmetal trousers in a metallic-coated cloth that catches light like brushed steel, cut high at the waist with slant pockets, a pressed centre crease and a tapered leg that stops at the ankle. On top, a black stretch bodysuit with one shoulder, a diagonal strap that cuts across the front and a second slash open at the waist. Black suede pointed pumps with a thin heel, nothing at the ankle.
The trousers are the statement; the bodysuit is there to give them a clean line to start from. Wear it to dinner in autumn and winter, or any cocktail hour where the room is dark enough for the metal to work. Hands in pockets is the correct posture. Tuck nothing, add nothing: no belt, no jacket unless the walk is long, in which case a black blazer over the shoulders and off again inside. Small hoops, the black smartwatch and the beaded bracelet, hair straight and down.
Steel trousers, cotton top. The balance of power is obvious.
