Bae Suzy’s best back-to-work looks from Netflix’s Start-Up: how to steal her K-drama character Seo Dal-mi’s chic designer office style because, well, it’s been a while
- As Dior’s ambassador, Bae Suzy was often seen sporting the brand in the show, but also wore beautiful pieces by Bottega Veneta and Loewe
- Low-key jewellery, preppy Ralph Lauren shirts and sensible Gianvito Rossi heels were key to Seo Dal-mi’s look, and are easy to add to your own work wardrobe
As pockets of the world slowly bring Covid-19 under relative control and a sense of normalcy returns, it’s time to lose the slippers and sweatpants, and get dressed once more for the office. Remember that?
So let’s take a closer look at her inimitable style, the brands she’s been flaunting and which looks we can steal for ourselves.
Her Lanvin, Tod’s, Bottega Veneta, Salvatore Ferragamo and Loewe office bags
Throughout the series, Seo Dal-mi carries a covetable collection of designer bags that partner seamlessly with her everyday looks. She’s seen with the Tod’s Oboe Bag in brown, the Bottega Veneta BV Classic in black and the Salvatore Ferragamo Gancini Hobo, among others. Later on, we also see her toting a brown leather shoulder bag from Lanvin.
The brands may differ but the style does not – all of her choices in the show are neutral in shade, practical in size, and either a shoulder or handbag; qualities that reflect Seo’s no-fuss style.
Suit up in an army of French designer brands
Although it might not be immediately obvious, Bae Suzy’s office ensembles came from some of the very finest Parisian ateliers.
She dons cotton button-downs from LeMaire, a cardigan from Rochas, a silk pussy bow dress under a blazer also from Rochas, and a pair of sensible black heels from Roger Vivier.
