New Season Tailoring Guide
With Autumn knocking at the door it's time to rethink our wardrobes. Gone are the days of just throwing on any old jacket, this season brings an opportunity to refresh your tailoring game and amp up the smart factor. If you’re looking for a smart sophisticated style upgrade then read on as we dive into the latest in men’s autumn tailoring.
The Comeback of Classic Cuts
This autumn classic cuts are back in a big way. Think styles that exceed the test of time, single breasted blazers and tailored trousers are making a triumphant return to the forefront of men’s minds. These styles are perfect for investing in now, they complement all body types and allow for easy styling whether it’s dressing up or down. Style with a crisp white shirt, simple tie and good quality leather shoes for a day at the office. Want to make it work for the weekend? Switch the shirt to a simple tee and pair it with clean white trainers for a casual smart weekend look.
Textures That Tell a Story
As the nights get cooler it’s time to introduce heavier, warmer fabrics into your wardrobe. Fabrics like wool, tweed and flannel are great for adding depth and texture to your outfit. Add a new season upgrade by mixing and matching textures to create a rich visual appearance. Think soft cashmere jumpers paired with vintage style tweeds layered with rough-hewn flannel. Layering different textures will make your outfit pop and add a modern new season edge to your look.
Earthy Tones for a Warm Vibe
As the season's colour changes so should your wardrobe. Autumn calls for rich earthy tones like browns, rusts, olive greens and deep tans. These shades not only reflect the season but also complement a myriad of skin tones. To nail this season trend first start with a neutral base and build from there. For example, pair a tan tweed blazer and layer with a terracotta shirt, style with neutral chinos and chukka boots for a casual smart look. The key is to not be afraid to mix and match different colours but keep the overall look balanced.
Statement Accessories that Shine
Accessories are the cherry on the cake and this season there's huge emphasis on the importance of well-placed accessories. Bold accessories are stealing the spotlight, think patterned ties or pocket squares, classic belts and waistcoat chains. The key to mastering the finishing touches is to opt for one bold piece. If your tie features a loud print your pocket square should be more subtle.
Double-Breasted Jackets Dominate
Double breasted blazers have been quietly gaining popularity for a while now but this season we’ve seen them surge in favour. Whilst they seem more formal they are actually more versatile than you first think and can be easily dressed down by pairing them with casual wear. A well fitted double breasted blazer can transform your look can transform your outfit from bland to grand in an instant.
The Power of Layering
Layering isn’t just for warmth; it’s for style too. A well-structured waistcoat under your blazer can add that extra flair. It also gives you versatility; you can take off the blazer for a more relaxed approach. Think of it as building a sandwich; each layer adds flavour, making each bite more enjoyable.
Conclusion: Step into Autumn with Style
Autumn is not just about falling leaves; it’s about falling in love with your style all over again. With these men's autumn tailoring trends, from classic cuts to rich textures and earthy tones, there's no reason you can't step out looking sharp.
