But recently, we’ve noticed a new iteration of the classic look, and we’re beyond obsessed. Think statement sleeves and boxy silhouettes.

From Rihanna’s borrowed-from-the-boys Matthew Adams Dolan suit to Bella Hadid’s Barbie pink blazer dress by Virgil Abloh’s streetwear brand Off-White, designers have come up with many innovative variations of the classic power suit.
