Inspired by Katherine Hepburn

A pioneer of the American sportswear aesthetic, Katharine Hepburn embraced wide-legged, roomy trousers long before her Hollywood peers. She was considered a fashion trailblazer because she literally wore menswear inspired blazers instead of the tailored dresses that were popular during the height of her fame. These days, Hepburn's looks seem far less daring in terms of what women on the big screen wear off duty, but they're still inspiring!

Katherine Hepburn challenged fashion norms by prioritizing comfort and individuality. It would take other movie stars decades to catch up to her sartorial nonchalance, which is probably the reason that 70-year-old images of the actor are still so alluring. Her signature style was one of understated chicness - a loose fitting suit complete with a white collarless undershirt and a classic suit vest. A pair of loafers and white socks completed the look!

While I don’t have on a suite in these pictures, my look was definitely inspired by Katherine Hepburn. It’s a little out of my box, but very comfortable and I love it!
