A suit is the smartest choice for a professional woman today and is the most important item in her wardrobe.
Suits are more authoritative, though, if they are in dark or rich colors such as navy, fl, camel, teal, brown, purple, gray or olive green.
The so-called two-piece or Channel-style suit, to be worn without a blouse, is another option; even though it is an elegant choice, it is not as versatile to mix and match with other pieces in your wardrobe.

 Suit (clothing) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The modern suit did not appear until the mid nineteenth century, but the at least the origins of its coat can be traced back to the revolution in men's dress set by Charles II, king of Great Britain in the 1660s.
The lounge suit became increasingly widely worn through the later nineteenth century as casual town daywear until it started to become an acceptable alternative to the morning coat as town wear in the early twentieth century.
As the lounge suit became increasingly popular, even the humblest men would have at least one suit to wear on Sunday to church, as part of their "Sunday best." Victorian men who were able to afford it would still wear a frock coat to church.

A suit is usually the garment of choice to show respect in special circumstances whether at a wedding, funeral, graduation or other life cycle event.
A suit that is memorable to the interviewer is usually so because it is inappropriate for one of many reasons; poorly tailored, inappropriate color or design, bad fit, poorly coordinated etc. For entry to mid level positions consider wearing a suit in mid to dark grey or navy shades.
These suits can be worn very comfortably to most life cycle events (weddings, funerals, confirmations, graduations…) as well as interviews, parties etc. The advantage of solid navy or fl is that the jacket can generally be worn as a blazer with a matching pant in grey or taupe.

 International standard business attire - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The suit must be dark-coloured (with or without a pin stripe pattern), grey, dark blue or brown (although brown for business dress is often considered "old-fashioned" and associated with the early- to mid-twentieth century).
The suit was originally a nineteenth-century American innovation in dress: seeking a casual alternative to the long, heavy frock coats then considered appropriate business dress, men began to wear lighter coats cut just below the waist when not engaged in business.
In the 1970s, women aspiring to managerial or professional status were advised to "dress for success" by wearing clothing that imitated the male business suit: jacket and matching skirt, worn with a plain blouse and discreet accessories.
