Qhen temperatures change the tables, fashion responds. With the arrival of the new season, the wardrobe is renewed: not so much through radical revolutions or new garments, but rather rediscovering the great classics in a lighter, airy, spring version. This is the case of suit.
What varies, more than the structure, are the materials and the attitude with which it is worn. For the Spring 2026 we focus on silk, also choosing it for the two-piece suit with skirt and jacket. A precious fabric which, thanks to a relaxed fit, manages to reconcile different needs: on the one hand the practicality daily, on the other an elegance more sophisticated.
Where we have already seen it
Before uniform of emancipation, then a symbol of bourgeois elegance, today a territory of experimentation: the skirt suit went through the twentieth century changing skin without ever losing relevance. From Coco Chanel’s revolution, which freed it from constraints by transforming it into a practical and modern outfit, up to the more structured interpretations of the 80s, the two-piece with skirt has embodied, from time to time, power, rigor and femininity.

If the trouser suit evolves with jackets that are narrower at the waist and slimmer silhouettes, the skirt suit moves in the opposite direction, embracing softer volumes and a relaxed attitude. The case of is emblematic Fendi: here the suit is lightened in construction, with a large double-breasted jacketcut sleeves and bottom boxy, and one high waisted skirt with front slit. All available in off-white and in silk, which elevates the whole without rigidifying it, transforming the suit into a sophisticated garment but surprisingly smooth.
How to combine a silk suit in the office (and beyond)
The key is in change perspective: Fendi pairs the silk suit with a brown polo chocolate, with peep-toe sandals with satin details and a hint of a heel, and a maxi bag workwear with multicolor geometric pattern. The result is a new office uniform: less predictable, more personal.

From here, the possibilities multiply. The suit can be broken up and reinterpreted: the blazer in silk it also works over a pair of jeanspaired with Mary Janes and a small evening bag, for a balance between day and night.
The skirt, on the other hand, lends itself to more relaxed readings: worn with a simple polo shirt when temperatures allow, and completed by one sneakers or from one Friulian on off-duty days, it keeps its elegance intact but makes it decidedly more accessible.
