Knowing how to use fashion to your advantage is an authentic tool in mastering politics. Well, at least when it comes to the British Prime Minister, Theresa May. When all eyes are on you (as one of the most important political figures in the country), clothes are of great importance to prove yourself a self-conscious, experienced woman who knows what she wants and how to get it, and that is why Theresa May is a great style role model for any businesswoman out there, that also loves wearing clothes with a casual flair every now and then, and leads an overall flourishing life. With politicians being notorious for a strict dress code and minimalistic tailoring, Theresa always loved to add a pop of color to brighten up often boring plain business suits.

Theresa May is seen enthusiastically waving at the crowd, in the equivalently enthusiastic purple dress that is slightly asymmetric, that certainly adds a subtle, barely present modern detail to it. Although not the brightest of them all, purple is a wise choice to make if someone wants to look aristocratic, royal, down-to-earth, and not screamingly elegant. You nailed it with this one Theresa!

A minimal approach is taken with an always right grey suit that is perfectly tailored to suit Theresa. What is more, a feminine ruffle is seen on the lapel of the blazer, which is so rarely seen on all blazers that could get overly masculine some times. The perfect accessories are always a big pearly, chunky necklace and a statement haircut, and Theresa made the best of both worlds.

This is surely a safe print, providing the lack of flamboyance with enough contrast to make everyone’s eyes look at you. Paired with the perfect body-conscious dress model (well, not Kim K body-con) it is wise style choice.

Theresa knows how to make a navy dress stand out. The answer is a crisp teal coat and her favorite pearl necklace (this time in a deep blue color)!
And with any businesswoman out there, Theresa needs to step away from the suit sometimes and look casual. A subtle pink polo shirt paired with black trousers is a great choice.
