Linen suits are just perfect for summer. But I am finding most men are not sure how to wear them let alone embrace the suit. To be honest it used to be normally just worn a lot on the Mediterranean locations. But those days are gone and from London to New York to the streets of Rome. Men are wearing them in their own way.
Brown, Blue and Beige
Choosing the right colour is one aspect you need to think about. I am a big fan of anything blue. But it’s just down to personal taste and what colour suits you. Some fabrics seemed to work better than others but in general the linen suits need to be looked after and ironed. Go for a stiffer fabric if your not high on maintaining the clean fresh look.
Zara and H.E. for MANGO
These are a perfect starting point to try out your linen suit adventure. The cuts are nice up to date and it won’t set you back too much. Take your time in choosing your linen suit and other pieces to match.
Shoes
White trainers seemed to be the shoe men are opting for, which worries me a lot as I think there are nicer options. If you want to go the trainer look choose something summery like a plimsoll. My favourite are the loafers whether it be brown or blue just as they rock the suit look in so many ways. Slippers or sandals will also look great with linen suits. It’s all about creating a fresh, light summer look and the shoe should match it.
