Why you need this suit

16 January 2019

Sometimes, a wardrobe is begging for an update. Maybe you’re short on jumpers for the season ahead; perhaps all of your shoes are worn out or it might just be that you’re sick of wearing the same black suit for every worthy event you attend. Of course, a simple two-piece will have a time and a place where it’s the most appropriate choice for that occasion, but if you’re looking to ring the changes and mix things up, now is the perfect time.

Unless you’ve chosen to hibernate for the past 365 days, you’ll have noticed that checked trousers are being worn on the pegs of some of the most stylish men in the world. But now it’s time to take things one step further, by upping the ante with a traditionally timeless checked suit. Sure, the concept may be nothing new if your mind instantly reverts to the classic Prince of Wales suit, and we are - of course - talking about the modern iteration.

The beauty of a checked suit is that it can take on many different personas, depending on why you’re buying it and how you intend to wear it. For a smart occasion, it can be the perfect ice breaker: the piece that’ll make sure you stand out from the crowd and gain instant style points. If you’re looking for something a little more casual, it’s the perfect piece to deconstruct, whether the jacket and the trousers are worn as two entirely separate entities or worn together but with a simple white T-shirt or a chunky roll neck. Whatever you choose, be safe in the knowledge that you’ve crossed the boundary to make 2019 your most stylish year yet.
