The actress Honami Suzuki in such suits in the hit Japanese TV series Tokyo Love Story (1991) still looks impressive and proves the charm of a woman in suits.

Similar suit also appeared on Chinese women, from entertainment celebrities to common people. During China Central Television's Spring Festival Gala in 1991, Ni Ping, who later became one of the most famous TV hosts, sported a bright orange yellow suit with large shoulder pads.

At that time, Chinese women and their Asian sisters all endeavored to speak aloud in a male-dominated world. They studied hard, worked industriously and raised babies with no regrets. The large shoulder pads became a symbol or a demonstration of a woman who was not afraid to take on responsibilities.
