Suits you! Lena Dunham looks dapper in trousers and a jacket as she receives honour at ArtsConnection benefit in New York City
Lena Dunham was honoured at a benefit event in New York City on Monday and suited up for the occasion.

Lena was joined at the event by her Girls co-star Andrew Rannells, 37, who looked spiffy in a dark blue suit.
Former Christie's contemporary art head Amy Cappellazzo also was honoured at the benefit along with Lena.
Amy's private consulting firm Art Agency Partners that she co-founded was acquired earlier this year for $50 million by Sotheby's, according to Artnet News.
Lena comes from a family of artists as her mother Laurie Simmons is an artist and photographer and her father Carroll Dunham is a painter.Â

We're gonna file this one under: perfection.
Where would we be without this sage, mystical woman of expert style and advice?
Among many things that Lena has taught us, like the importance of a good nap and learning to accept ourselves, she has also taught us that being sexy is a feeling and not always a way of dressing.
Which is why we were rendered breathless upon clapping eyes on these photos of our girl wearing this smart, tailored custom look by Creatures of Comfort.
We've always been a sucker for women's suiting and Lena burned up our sweet spot with this tonal grey look.
So let this be the five-hundred and fifth lesson we learn from Lena and opt for a grey suit this Spring. While hers was a bespoke number, that won't stop from looking for something similar on the virtual high street.
That being said, why don't you steal from the boys and look like a GIRL with one of our alternatives below?
ArtsConnection since 1979 has been providing arts programming to students in the New York City public school system.
Lena created the HBO comedy-drama series Girls that premiered on April 15, 2012.
The show's sixth and final season will air in 2017.Â
