Theresa May A-Z: P is for Paule Ka

Theresa May knows the benefit of a good tailored piece, and Parisian brand Paule Ka is helping her achieve her super chic look.

Celebrating thirty years of business, this brand knows how to design classic pieces with a twist. The French ready-to-wear brand takes its inspiration from the grace and elegance of 50s and 60s style icons like Jacqueline Kennedy, Grace Kelly and Audrey Hepburn, spotlighting strong tailoring and glamorous pieces perfect for the workplace.

Whilst May reinvents British politics, she turns to a new take on familiar pieces for her wardrobe. Think the two-piece suit reimagined- a switch from traditional Tory blue to statement violet, a cute back bow detail and oversized buttons. Right up the PM’s street!

May also turns to Paule Ka for wildcard items. Opening the Conservative Party conference in October 2016, May looked like a superhero. A sharp black tunic was teamed with trousers- and a canary yellow utilitarian style ottoman belt the sole pop of colour. This striking look was thanks to Paule Ka, and it’s up the top of my list as one of the boldest and fierce pieces May has worn during her time as Prime Minister. Saving political style one-step at a time, Paule Ka is a fantastic example of Theresa May’s fashion forward thinking and her keen eye for a strong piece.
