The piece

How to choose and wear a suit

A jacket and trousers cut from the same fabric. The most formal everyday outfit, and still the answer for weddings, interviews and formal offices.

How to choose

  • Navy first, charcoal second: between them they cover almost every occasion.
  • Worsted wool in a mid weight is wearable most of the year.
  • Notch lapels and two buttons are the most versatile style.

How suit should fit

Shoulder seams ending at the shoulder, jacket covering the seat, sleeves showing about 1 cm of shirt cuff.

Common mistakes

  • Shoulders too wide or too narrow: the one thing a tailor can't fix.
  • Brown shoes with a black suit.
  • Leaving the bottom jacket button fastened.

Care: Rotate between wears, brush and hang on a shaped hanger; dry clean rarely.

In a capsule: Only for a capsule that covers formal events; its jacket and trousers can also be worn separately.

The details

Length and fabric

What makes the colours above look deliberate.

Length
Jacket sleeves should show about 1 cm of shirt cuff; trousers with a slight break; shoes darker than the suit.
Fabric
The same beige in a different weight: cotton or linen for summer, wool, flannel or heavier cotton for winter.

Avoid

What not to wear with beige suit

Skip the black loafers. Loafers are more casual than a suit, so the pairing only works in a deliberately mixed outfit. Colour-wise it works: black shoes look heavy against beige; tan, brown or white read better.
