Eighty-six years after Marlene Dietrich wore a tux in her breakout role in Morocco, the tuxedo jacket is as relevant and covetable as ever. This season, London-based designer Racil Chalhoub is giving the iconic piece the star treatment. Her line, Racil, sees the topper reinvented in punchy hues and with luxe embellishments. (Swarovski crystals, anyone?) The jackets are crafted by Savile Row tailors with a wool weave used in men’s suiting, while the satin-covered buttons are made by an artisan in Paris. “The jackets reflect a sense of femininity in the cut and softness of the fabric,” she says. “But, above all, femininity is an attitude.” (From $240, racil.com)
