In 1966 Yves Saint Laurent designed the first couture women's tuxedo: Le Smoking. Today we get into the significance of the suit as womenswear and the subversive women who helped to popularize it. Plus, we are joined by the hosts of ⁠Throwing Fit's ⁠James Harris and Lawrence Schlossman. The hosts of The Only (other) Podcast That Matters join us to talk about the suit's place in the sartorial zeitgeist, #Menswear, and styling tips for the everyday suit.
