Suit of the Week: Theory

For busy working women, the suit is often the easiest outfit to throw on in the morning. In general, this feature is not about interview suits for women, which should be as classic and basic as you get — instead, this feature is about the slightly different suit that is fashionable, yet professional. Also: we just updated our big roundup for the best women's suits of 2026!

I was browsing the Theory website and came across this unusual skirt suit. Would you wear this to the office?

I think this definitely veers casual — it's linen, as well, so “casual on a very hot day.” What are your thoughts, readers?

(Oof, and I just realized the skirt is poplin, but the blazer is linen — so there's another question for you guys: would you wear a blazer and skirt in the same color but different fabrics? We talked about this a long time ago in the context of whether you can mix different fabrics for a black suit…

The blazer is $465 full price, and the skirt is $375.
