Lauren Chan, a 2023 SI Swimsuit rookie, is loving Barbiecore, but as fall rolls around, the Canadian model is entering a subtle, more muted baby pink era. The former Glamour fashion features editor stunned in her latest Instagram post wearing a three-piece corporate-inspired suit set, including a longline blazer, mini skirt and button-up V-neck vest.

She paired the sophisticated J.Crew outfit with white crew socks and metallic silver loafers and posed for a series of grainy film photos. Each piece, perfectly tailored and crafted from an “Italian city wool blend,” is a chic, unique and feminine twist on the classic workwear set.

“My favorite NYFW trend? Ballet-core. 💗🩰🎀 Though the pretty pink pieces on the runway can err on the side of too femme for my taste, this menswear-inspired @jcrew suit was the perfect way for me to wear the trend. @olympiamarie you are a visionary! #injcrew #ad,” the Henning founder captioned the carousel of gorgeous, moody photos she shared with her 90,000 followers. Chan tagged Olympia Gayot, the creative director and head of design at J. Crew.

“Literalllyyyy so perfect 🔥❤️,” Abisola Omole commented.

“Obsessssssed. Can I borrow this please?! Also cause now I’ve seen both you and Marine Johannés in a pink vest, so….,” Nicolette Mason chimed.

“Cool girl,” Kelly Augustine added.

“Stop! I can’t get over how pretty in 🩷 you are,” one fan wrote.

“Hi Barbie! ✨💞✨💞,” another added.
