Jackson's attire spotlights a major trend in women's tailoring that surged in recent years. Thanks in part to the likes of such public figures as former Vice President Kamala Harris, who styled several suited looks during her presidential campaign in 2024, suited styling and tailored attire for women is having a moment.
"This renewed focus on women's tailoring aligns with broader cultural shifts toward sustainability, individuality and the rejection of fast fashion," said Hannah Bond, the womenswear representative for 203-year-old bespoke tailor Norton & Sons, in an interview with WWD 's Hikmat Mohammed. "As more women ascend to leadership roles and seek professional attire that embodies confidence and style, the demand for high-quality, tailor-made clothing has grown."

Tailored suits for women have a rich history and experienced a resurgence in the 1980s, notably with the late Princess Diana's styling of a Catherine Walker suit paired with a Hackett waistcoat for an event in April 1988. Queen Letizia of Spain, Kate Middleton and more royal women favor suited styling , while across the pond, Kamala Harris, Tessa Thompson and more have styled suited looks .
