5 Key Men’s Suit Styles For SS14


Whether worn at the office during the week or for a night on the town at the weekend, the suit is an essential component of the modern style-conscious gent’s wardrobe.
Yet once you have purchased your classic navy and mid-grey versions, what’s next? With so many colours, cuts and fabrics available on the current market, it can be difficult to decide which one will serve you best.
To help, we’ve selected five suits for SS14 that would make an excellent addition to any warm-weather tailoring collection…
1. The Light Blue Suit
Timeless and highly versatile, the navy suit has long been touted by menswear publications as the only one you’ll ever need. Yet while navy is often the most admired, this season we suggest opting for a lighter shade of blue.Seasonally-appropriate, a pastel or petrol blue suit will help give a contemporary twist to your smarter aesthetics without having to push your boundaries too far.
In terms of styling, keep it simple with a plain white shirt, linen tie and brown suede loafers for summer events, removing the tie and switching to white Jack Purcells for a modern take on smart-casual.
But don’t restrict yourself to wearing just the full suit – with blue continuing to dominate men’s wardrobes, you are bound to get endless use out of both the trousers and blazer when you split it into separates.
For instance, try teaming your jacket with selvedge denim and brogues for a night on the town, or combining the trousers with a neutral coloured polo and smart loafers when heading to the office on dress-down Friday.
