Gennifer Birnbach Five Fall Looks for Every Style
Back to Business is filled with polished pieces—including tops, trousers and jackets—infused with print, shimmer and attitude. Whether you’re heading into a busy day at the office, packing for a business trip or simply want to look pulled together, these are pieces that mean business. Now that’s a power play!
Of course, “business” doesn’t have to mean boring. We picked five favorites for five different ways of dressing.
For a Plus-Size Figure: Journey Jacket
The Journey Jacket in Black is the kind of wardrobe workhorse you’ll be happy to have hanging in your closet.
Its easy, polished silhouette makes it an ideal layering piece, whether you’re wearing it over trousers for a day at the office or tossing it over a dress for dinner after a long day of meetings. Black keeps it classic, while the silhouette gives it that effortless Alembika attitude.

For a Petite Frame: Kitty Soft Shirt
The Kitty Soft Shirt in Carbon proves that a button-up doesn’t have to feel stiff or overly traditional.
Its soft, easy silhouette gives you a polished starting point for everything from tailored trousers to jeans. For a petite frame, keep the rest of the outfit streamlined so the shirt remains the focal point.

For Someone Petite in Height: Moment Crop Pant
Sometimes the easiest way to dress a petite frame is to embrace a shorter proportion. The Moment Crop Pant in Graphite Check does exactly that.
The cropped length creates a little more visual breathing room around the ankle and makes these trousers an especially easy choice for someone petite in height. Add a sleek top and a shoe that shows some ankle for a polished, elongated effect.

For the Artsy Woman: Misty Wrap Jacket
The Misty Wrap Jacket in Grey Melange takes the traditional jacket and gives it a more artistic point of view. The wrap silhouette feels unexpected and adds dimension without sacrificing sophistication.
Wear it over a simple dress, with wide-leg trousers or layered over your favorite statement piece. It’s especially good for the woman who likes her workwear with a little personality.

For the Classic Woman: Sterling Cocoon Dress
For the woman who believes you can’t go wrong with a great dress, the Sterling Cocoon Dress in Grey Mix is a natural choice.
The cocoon silhouette gives a classic dress a modern update, while the sophisticated grey palette makes it easy to accessorize. Add a simple pump or boot, a favorite piece of jewelry and you’re ready for the day.
And when the workday turns into dinner? Even better. This is the kind of dress that doesn’t require a complete outfit change.
