PHOTOS: Top Model Jessica Biel Channels Her Manly Side

Top Model PHOTOS: Jessica Biel Channels Her Manly Side:

Let's talk about menswear for a second.

It's one of fashion's favorite trends, used as an easy euphemism for just about anything that's not a dress (vests, pants suits, blazers, tuxedo pants, pinstripe). And that's OK -- women's fashion need not be overtly feminine, nor do we need frilly things to feel pretty.

But there is menswear and then there is menswear. Jessica Biel gives a good example of the latter in this month's Elle, where the December cover girl wears a sexed-up Annie Hall ensemble consisting of a sleeveless white button-down, pinstripe trousers and black suspenders.

She looks gorgeous, of course (because when does Jessica Biel not look gorgeous?). But that is some serious menswear. We're not talking a shrunken blazer with rolled-up sleeves or a delicate brogue with sequins -- she is wearing pleated pants.

In short, this might be a bit much for us. Is this the sort of menswear-inspired womenswear that you'd actually wear out of the house?

Go to Elle.com to see more Jessica pics and read some choice quotes from her cover story!
