As Summer wedding season kicks into gear, our mates at Arnotts have the right get up to make you stand out from the crowd
A wedding is always a happy occasion, unless there are no cocktail sausages offered up on a platter around midnight (we’ve seen things take an ugly turn when that doesn’t happen), so you should always smarten up and look your best, in particular during the Summer where the weather will be better and you can wear something a bit different from the average grey suit.
However, making sure that you get the perfect mix of formal with a touch of insouciance that captures the Summer mood can be a challenge, but making a change to the colouring of your suit will be a step in the right direction. Without Prejudice do a beautiful blue suit that’s a step above the average and will make you stand out in the right way.
Although the colour is not what you might expect to see with your every day get up, you can match some great shades and patterns to it, since it’s a little bit out of the ordinary. Here, a Duchamp floral shirt, which also contains a blue pattern, works well and compliments the suit nicely. Add in a pocket square with a hint of yellow to give the whole thing your individual touch, shod yourself with some tan brogues, admire how smart you look in the mirror for a minute and you’re set for the evening.
There’s no need to wear a tie as you can be that little bit more informal, plus while you’re sinking a cold drink in the Summer sun at the reception, you don’t want to be sweating buckets with a tie pulled tightly up to your throat. Go relaxed, but in style.
