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.
