SUITS YOU, SIR
Shiny, metallic, ‘notice-me-
colours’ and cuts –
whatever you choose, it’s
imperative to get yourself a
statement suit this summer,
and a wedding is the perfect
excuse to dazzle everyone with
the suit of the century!
The white suit is extremely cool
this summer and
JIL SANDER
’s
crisp, starch all-white version paired
with a peachy pink waistcoat, is an
elegant and sophisticated vision of
summer beauty.
TOPMAN
made a huge stir in the
industry with their slim-fit,
vibrant raspberry two-piece
suit while
DOLCE AND
GABBANA
sent a luxe
ruby-red shiny suit down the catwalk,
which oozed sophistication.
E. TAUTZ
are huge this season,
covering all of the trends perfectly
in their collection, but their shiny
lime green jacket and black silk
short combo really stood out
from the crowd.
FULL-ON FLORAL
We all love floral, whether subtle
prints or bold tropical bouquets.
Whichever you want to feature,
the choice is yours and no wardrobe
is complete without some this
summer. If you are having a beach
wedding or a summer soirée garden
party, it is the perfect opportunity to
come dressed fully flower-powered!
For the braver fashion wearers, there
is a huge array of choices such as
GUCCI
,
who weren’t holding back with their
beautifully tailored luxury floral suits. In
warm and rich purple, lilac and brown
shades, this is a statement suit and a half!
PRADA
went
tropical, showing
Hawaiian shirts with
subtle Asian influences. Red, blue, orange, yellow and
gold – aloha!
For the less daring,
DRIES VAN NOTEN
created a
beautiful pair of black silk floral trousers – a far more
approachable take on this huge trend.
COLOURING IN
Colour is important this season, if not most
important – so make sure you take note! We’ve
got bold reds and anything pink will work. Blue,
grey and white are staple and essential. If you
want to be a bit more courageous, pick yourself
one neon colour and go all out, whether it’s a
lime green suit jacket or a pair of bright orange
jeans. Don’t overdo it though; make sure you are
blending these loud colours with subtle and
neutral tones for the perfect summer look!
