Your guide to the summer suiting trend

Category: fashion and beauty

If you’re a boss in the boardroom and you love to let loose on the dancefloor (or just appreciate a good long lunch), this season’s obsession with suiting will *suit* you perfectly. Whether you’re going for a full three-piece situation, or you just want to add a hint of tailoring to your go-to outfit, there are a few ways you can make this season’s most timeless trend work for your wardrobe. 

1. It’s all in the details
When it comes to suiting in summer, it’s wise to start with the most season-appropriate pieces first. That’s why we’re loving waistcoats, particularly in low-key summer fabrics like linen. Not only will they give any ensemble a professional edge, they’re also easy to pair with everything from jeans, to mini skirts, to trousers, and pencil skirts. This one from Cotton On is the perfect mix of business and pleasure. 

2. That’s the one
If there’s one thing you invest in this season, make it a co-ordinated suit. With a plethora of colours, cuts, lengths, and fabrications on offer – there’s a suit for everyone, and every occasion. To stand out in the crowd or for a semi-formal soiree, we love this bright two-piece from Decjuba. For a more office-appropriate take, try this classic black suit with a twist – you’ll love the slightly cropped pants for some summer breathing room. 

3. Keep it lowkey
To add just a hint of professional polish to your summer style, go for a minimal piece in a classic cut, that champions traditional suiting fabrication. This sleek mini from Seed Heritage will work well in the office and out on the town. Our tip? Add a classic shoulder bag like this one from Novo, to add a cute touch to more corporate ensembles.
