Suits were initially introduced as a social wear for men only, but it now has a version for women. Women suits largely follow the same principles adapted by men, with some differences and more flexibility.<o:p></o:p>

According to FashionEncyclopedia.com, suits worn by women in the early 1990s are made up of a jacket and a floor-length skirt. Later on, the suit jacket was designed with buttons, and imitated the US Naval uniforms. As women explored more, and became more active members of society, hemlines were introduced. And as women suits continue to evolve, skirt length gets shorter and shorter until they ended up at knee length. In terms of jackets, there were redesigned to fit more on the natural curve of a women’s body. Since the early 1980s, women business suits became a symbol of competence, equality, and power.
