As the beautiful and brilliant Olivia Pope on ABC’s Scandal, star Kerry Washington graces the small screen in a number of stylish looks. The 39-year-old actress, who plays a former White House Communications Director, appears in the first episode of Season 6 in an elegant red and black ensemble.  

We managed to track down her exact Alexander McQueen cape coat, which features a cool red and black pattern. Meanwhile, Olivia’s flowing black trousers, red almond toe pumps and punchy red satchel all wrap up her look. Here’s how to get her look from tonight’s episode, for a perfectly business-appropriate winter outfit.

Watch Scandal tonight at 9 p.m ET/8 p.m. CT on ABC. 

1) Alexander McQueen Floral Jacquard Knit Cape, $1,727: This statement wool-silk topper steals the spotlight with its scarlet and black jacquard design and ladylike high collar. While it’s certainly a splurge, Olivia is a radiant sight in this eye-catching coat, which flatters her rich cocoa skin tone with its bright red motif.

2) Joseph Loose Fit Trousers, $284: For a professional look, slip into a pair of loose-fitting bottoms to flatter the showstopping jacket. These baggy wool trousers by Joseph look perfectly appropriately for the office, but also work for after hours.

3) FOSSIL Emma Leather Satchel, $104: To showcase the vibrant hue of your coat, pick up this FOSSIL handbag. With its fierce red hue, double handles and gold hardware accents, this satchel can easily complete your look.

4) Le Château Spanish Made Patent Leather Pump, $52: For extra height and a feminine silhouette despite your menswear inspired pants, slip into this timeless red pumps. The gleaming texture, almond toes and stiletto heels scream “sexy”, but also look office-ready for a day of business.
