Woot! Suz found her fantastic suit in her very own perfect neutral! I'm beyond ecstatic for you Suz!!! What gorgeous drape and the lining sounds like a dream. I have tried on several Ellie Tahari pieces and I think I know what you're talking about. I'm no help on the hem length, but I'm sure the good ladies of the forum +Angie will get you sorted. I love that it's seasonless, too. You will wear the heck out of this little beauty. It looks absolutely amazing on you, and you seem so happy to have finally found it. I'm so glad you didn't settle. Cheers!

Beyond perfect and gorgeous on you Suz! You can cross that HEWI off your list!

Simply stunning, Suz. Yes, it does look better on you than the model, and kudos to you for having the confidence to say it! It's a beautiful suit, and it looks great with whatever you put with it. The jacket is wonderful as a separate, too - it looks smashing with your new BFs and sandals. I'm delighted for you.

On my phone I was a bit eh on it. But once I got on my laptop and saw the full size pictures, WOW, it's great.

Wow!! It looks amazing on you!! Nice, no, INCREDIBLE find!!

Yay!!! I was wondering when you'd share it. So glad you got it. It does indeed look better on you than the model.

It was totally worth delaying dinner! Plus I ended up poking around and found the top I'm wearing today. So on a purely selfish level I am glad for the wait! But even more, I'm excited for you that you found your HEWI suit!

So glad you bought it and did not leave it in the store to think about for awhile. I especially love the jacket with the pink top and your new shoes! Love that this will be a workhorse for both dressing up and down opportunities.

You really look stunning in this jacket! All of these looks are amazing!

The colour is soo striking on you...!

Oh, we finally get to see your new suit! So glad you found your HEWI, and PPP paid off. It looks 100% better on you than on the model for sure. The last photo with the detail truly shows the quality of the jacket – and the color is so beautiful on you. Many happy wears!

Thank you, everyone! So glad to earn your applause on this one, and Sveta can now take a bow as the godmother to the purchase.

Anna, you reminded me -- I should tell Jeneva about this. The colour would be equally amazing on her. It is funny - we do not have the same colouring (obviously) -- yet we look great in mostly the same colours.

Wow, Suz, this is stunning on you! The color is so perfect. I love it! And you look way better than the model. Way better. :^)

This is your suit for sure Suz! The color and fit are fantabulous. So happy for you!

Awesome Suz! So glad you found the elusive suit. It looks like it will be a real workhorse, as long as you're not like me and forget to wear the peices as separates :). And it's so awesome with those new SHOES!

Oooh you got the trousers too, yay!-)
I am nodding along with everything the other ladies have already mentioned. This is your perfect suit, Suz, for sure: the colour, cut, fit and silhouette, all perfect.

You should see me smile here: I am so chuffed that you found your suit, and I know you'll have tons of fun playing around with it!

So glad to see this! It was only hinted at in other posts.

The color and fit are sophisticated and modern -- such a good choice. I think sizing up in the trousers was a great choice, even if the sides need a bit of taking in -- it looks like the rise length is just right for you.

And you found it just in time for your writer's retreat!

Yay! I've been waiting for this. The perfect suit for you. That color is amazing on you. I love that it's not the basic black or navy. So very worth the wait!

Much better on you- that is one of my favorite colors- a bridge color, can be warm or cool and small, brighter accents pop.
It is a color theory thing.
Many do not get the versatility of taupe.
LOVE!!!

Stunning on you. This will be a go to for you I think.

And.... BAM!!

Better on you than on the model, times a million!

Love it love it love it!

This jacket is a knock-out on you, and a perfect neutral, too. The suit looks outstanding, although I love the jacket with jeans, too.

I am so happy for you! It does look amazing on you. The color is fabulous. As for the hemming of the pants, what does Angie say? They look a touch long to me (ducking…).

I've been waiting for you to post these pictures! Fabulous, gorgeous suit in YOUR neutral. It absolutely looks better on you than the model and it is even more stunning on you in person!

GORGEOUS.

I, too, love that color. Some of my favorite pieces are a cooler taupe in the same family. Nothing soul-sucking about it.

This is SO exciting - a non-corporate suit in an interesting colour what a find!!
You look sensational Suz. I hesitate to give advice about lengths from photos but I love how the pants look in #5.

So happy for you & you've given me a boost to keep looking for mine - they are out there somewhere. Maybe I have to go shopping with Sveta too

Caro, Sveta is an unbelievably smart shopper. She never over praises. She is always exacting. But she also nudges when nudging is necessary. And she knows quality from a mile away.

Perfection! Well worth the wait indeed.

May I add the 100th WOW?!!!!
