If you’ve ever attended a fashion- or beauty-related event in the Metro-D.C. area chances are you crossed paths with Lauren Rothman. Since starting her company Styleauteur 10 years ago, she has made a name for herself as a style expert dressing the city’s elite and penning a fashion column for Huffington Post, all while traveling to host fashion shows, TV segments and workshops. She also accomplished a lifelong dream this year of releasing a book “Style Bible: What to Wear to Work.”

Speaking to companies about executive presence and the importance of a first impression (“dress to turn heads, not to stop traffic”), Rothman found that there was a lack of literature to help reinforce her teachings when she was unable to follow-up in person. “There really wasn’t a comprehensive guide … especially something that talked to men as well as women, from intern to CEO,” she says.

This compassion of helping clients find joy with their bodies, and commitment to her craft, is one of the many reasons she was asked to participate in “The Empowerment Project” documentary, slated for release this summer. The film follows the careers of 17 female leaders (Miss USA 2012 Nana Meriwether and Girls on the Run founder Mary W. Barker) in an effort to inspire the next generation. “It’s a film that examines what you would do with your life and career if you weren’t afraid to fail. I feel very lucky to be living my dream every day.”

Lauren A. Rothman is a seasoned pro in the style & fashion industry. Rothman is the author of “Style Bible: What to Wear to Work.” She has been featured on CNN en Español, Entertainment Tonight, E! News, The Insider, Reuters, AP News, and ABC News. Her tips have appeared in Vanity Fair, People StyleWatch, Glamour, Real Simple, Cosmo Latina, Oprah.com, Fortune, The Washington Post, The Huffington Post, and The New York Post.

Fashion Whip: Celebrating Washington’s Own Red Carpet, AKA The White House Correspondents’ Dinner
Fashion Whip is a political style column in the Huffington Post by Lauren A. Rothman, inspired by Lauren’s experience as the founder of Styleauteur, a style and fashion consulting firm.

Read this article on TheHuffingtonPost.com

Locals will have Hollywood royalty in their backyard this weekend. Saturday is Washington’s big day to dress up, and every year the White House Correspondents’ Dinner festivities get even the most slovenly dressers into a tie or tux. This is the media’s weekend to celebrate and many will push through the daily news cycle as they attend celebrity-studded parties around town.

Many of TV and film’s biggest stars will be in attendance but even the flashiest of celebs tone it down on DC’s red carpet. Actors and the people they emulate on TV and in movies will mingle at brunches and cocktail parties. You may see Julianna Margulies from “The Good Wife” alongside someone who really is a good wife, and America’s favorite television president, Tony Goldwyn from “Scandal”, may pose for pics with President Obama. While this event always has a best-dressed list, politicos and press superstars take their own turns to shine at the Washington Hilton.

Some famous on air-personalities enjoy fashion and style but, on the whole, this is an industry that doesn’t do spray tans, teeth whitening, or borrowed jewels. You’re more likely to see people getting their makeup done at a Nordstrom counter and a blowout in Georgetown, than ushering a glam squad into their home.

Just what, you might ask, is the key difference between a Hollywood red carpet and the White House Correspondents’ Dinner? This presidential send-up is traditionally attended by the District’s old-school press royalty. Washington’s most valuable currency is power and here that nest egg grows with experience. Many wear the same shoes for 12 hours and get frustrated when dresses and skirts don’t have pockets — it’s not unusual for me to be tasked at the last minute with finding clutches (with optional straps, of course) to accommodate reading glasses, multiple cell phones, and lipstick. The DC vanguard expects comfort and convenience from their ensemble even in the dressiest of circumstances.

Most celebrities visiting the nation’s capital this weekend will be dressed in borrowed designer duds, accessories, and the latest trend in shoes as they are photographed coming and going. They will dress to impress and continue their personal branding through this unique extension of the recent awards season, looking to land an endorsement deal to become the next face of a fragrance, makeup empire, or retailer.

Meanwhile, the press core is a group that buys their own formal attire, sometimes on sale and usually off the rack. I have certainly helped DC power players source unique, custom, and couture gowns but, for this event, expect slits instead of cutouts, understated lace in place of bold patterns, higher necklines and peplum waists. Red carpet red is always popular and a sea of black makes it easy to blend in at the affectionately referred to “Nerd Prom.”

The best way to add District sparkle and blur the line between celeb and politico? Rent the Runway — a well-kept secret (totally worth bragging about) that will help any party-goer feel like Cinderella — or First Lady Michelle Obama — and fit right in!

The Tie Is So Old School
By Andy Serwer, managing editor @FortuneMagazine

The business you are in is even more telling. Lauren A. Rothman, who runs Styleauteur, a consulting firm based in Washington, D.C., that advises executives at Fortune 500 companies on dressing for success, and who wrote Style Bible: What to Wear to Work, explains: “In creative fields like media, advertising, or marketing, ties are dead. No one wears them except as a fashion accessory. Likewise at startups and tech companies, where you would really look overdressed — like maybe you had a job interview somewhere else — if you showed up wearing a tie.”

Spot on, Lauren. I had that very experience not long ago. I was interviewing a job candidate who came into my office with a bag in which he had a change of casual clothes he was going to slip back into afterward, so as not to tip off his current employer. Amazing.

Power Players

Dress to impress: The secrets of a stylish power dresser – Lauren Rothman, Styleauteur

Power Player

Whether you’re an intern looking to land a first job or at the top of the executive ladder, the principles of power dressing are useful guideposts for workplace fashion.

In this episode of “Power Players,” Lauren Rothman, author of the “Style Bible: What to Wear to Work,” takes us to Bloomingdale’s for some styling advice.

“That woman who’s going to the office, whether she’s running for office or she’s in the board room, the suit has really evolved, it’s not just about the traditional suit,” said Rothman, who said that women now wear more “creams and whites” rather than black and other loud colors.

“You’re seeing a little bit of what you see on the red carpet, which is the perforated, you’re seeing a little bit of the cutout, you’re now seeing it in the boardroom as well,” Rothman said.

Washington, D.C., has a buttoned up reputation and Rothman believes we will “always” see that in the nation’s capital, but noted that she thinks it’s most important to look “modern, but accessible.”

“The nature of this city is power and it is certainly the currency on how D.C. works,” Rothman said, adding it’s not just about dressing conservatively.

“Back in the day, you used to stop traffic with color, you would see politicians always sort of looking cheesy,” Rothman said. “They weren’t really well-dressed, they were in something boxy,” but now she says power players can look both “modern and fashion forward.”

Some of those styles are leather, the peplum, longer jackets, and making sure outfits work from day to night, which can be as simple as taking off a blazer, adding some accessories, and heading to an evening event.

“It’s really about taking the trends that we’re seeing off the runway and in the magazines and how do you bring them to the office,” Rothman said. “This season we have some really great trends … whether it’s taking the leather that can really go day to night … whether you’re going traditional or having a little bit more of a unique flair, it’s great for the office.”

And these tips and trends really can translate outside of the Beltway or what Rothman calls “from the runway to the real way.”

“This is all about dressing up for work, remembering that this is a place that’s important, whether you’re a power player by D.C. standards or really just going to a regular 9 to 5 job. You want to dress to impress,” Rothman said. “A lot of what you’re seeing at the office now and sort of that trend of power dressing is that it’s become softer. It’s become a little bit more fun. It’s less boxy, it’s less oversized.”

And we can’t forget the men. Rothman says it’s not just about the suit, watch, and leather shoes, but men are also showing their style and a “subtle power” through their socks. A style we know former President George H.W. Bush enjoys, but Rothman says came out of Silicon Valley.

“This is something where the hoodies and the jeans are accompanied by some pretty powerful socks,” Rothman said. “The louder the print, the louder the color, the more money in the wallet … men are really into their accessories, and that’s really a top power trend that we’re seeing now. So men are competing against each other, it’s not just a suit against a suit, but it’s a suit against the suit with the cufflinks and the pocket square … and the tie clip and the watch and the socks.”

For more tips on power dressing, and to see some of the hottest clothing trends for work, check out this episode of “Power Players.”

ABC News’ Betsy Klein, Tom Thornton, Hank Disselkamp, and Gary Rosenberg contributed to this episode.
