MAKE YOUR SUIT GO FURTHER THIS YEAR
Often the uniform of more corporate settings, the suit is a smart, sharp and coordinated piece of apparel. Though an essential addition to any wardrobe, the suit is also frequently seen as an occasion-specific piece of apparel. With little changes here and there, however, you can make your suit go beyond work and weddings.
Date night
You don’t have to stick to the rules when it comes to suiting – wearing the jacket and trousers as separates can instantly refresh your suit and give it a new feel. If you’re heading on a date, why not swap out your suit trousers for a pair of moleskin trousers and open up your Oxford for a more relaxed look. The contrasting colours are bold enough to draw just the right amount of attention to your top half, and perfectly hit the smart-but-relaxed note.
Dinner celebration
A nice dinner is a prime opportunity for dressing up. You don’t have to dive head-first into suit-and-tie mode though – sometimes adding a knit under a tailored fit is enough to soften the aesthetic but still look put together. Our sage herringbone suit comes in 3-piece so it’s great for formal events such as weddings with the addition of the waistcoat, but works just as well as a 2-piece with a casual base layer.
Weekday to weekend
Your weekday suit can moonlight as refined weekend-wear. All you need to do is add a light knit, like our merino mock neck, a pair of hiking boots and a rich-hued overcoat to top it all off. Playing around with your base and top layers is a great way to work your suit into your casual wardrobe and make it work for the weekend.
