A pantsuit is a woman's suit of clothing consisting of trousers and a matching or coordinating coat or jacket. The pantsuit was very popular in the 1920s, during the Roaring Twenties when women took on a new role wearing pantsuits, hats, and even using canes.

André Courrèges introduced long trousers for women as a fashion item in the late 1960s, and over the next 40 years pantsuits gradually became acceptable business wear for women. Designer Yves Saint-Laurent introduced evening pantsuits for women, fashioned to mimic a man's tuxedo, in the 1970s.
