How to Style a Linen Suit for Summer Weddings?
In summer, beating the heat is unavoidable. Just in case you’ve planned your wedding at this point in time, you need to be cautious as your wedding preparations, including shopping, become tiring and perspiring. Having said that, as the groom, you have to stay cool, comfortable, as well as stunning in looks, without sweat dripping your wedding attire.
This is possible only by choosing the right wedding attire—certainly, the wedding suit. Of course, cotton and linen are the go-to choices. In this blog, we’ll guide you on how to style a linen suit for a summer wedding this year.
Styling the ensemble linen wedding suit
It is not just the linen fabric that makes it a great ensemble but various other factors, like color, fit, fabric blend, pattern, and accessories.
- Color of the suit
The color of the linen suit matters in two cases. One—it has to align with the theme or type of the wedding. Two—it has to cope with the summer weather and try to keep the body as cool as possible. Thus, for a casual, informal, or beach wedding, light colors are best suitable. Examples include ivory, sage green, light tan brown, cream, lavender, and coral blue. Truly, these colors are refreshing and soothing to the eyes.
On the contrary, for formal summer weddings, grooms can choose black, gray, or navy blue. These suits will have a more sophisticated and classic look.
- Made-to-measure fit
The summer wedding suits ought to be airy, breathable, and lightweight to prevent sweating. So, bespoke wedding suits that are made-to-measurements of the groom are recommended. In this case, the groom can customize the padding, canvas, or lining as per the body requirements. Also, this gives a personalized feeling on the special day.
- The fabric blend
Pure linen suits are always the first choice. However, linen blend fabrics are also ideal. Flax-linen, wool-linen, and silk-linen blends are some poshy and stylish choices for the groom.
- The pattern on the linen suit
In general, fashion designers recommend minimal design or pattern on a wedding suit. This ensures the overall wedding suit or attire gets all the attention rather than noticing the details on the fabric. Light stripes, checks, and graphics are acceptable and will look subtle on the suit. Try to avoid big or bold patterns to retain the wedding elegance on the suit.
- Accessories
Neckties and pocket squares are the first noticeable accessories in a men’s suit. So, style it in such a way that it blends with the color and the texture of the blazer.
The next comes the belt. Try to keep them thin and in neutral colors so they don’t create any contrasts or unwanted highlights unless intentional. Pick a suitable watch with a similar color to the belt or neutral based on the type of occasion—formal or informal.
Shoes are to be chosen carefully so that they complement the suit color, suit style, and accessories. While loafers and sneakers are apt for casual weddings, dress shoes are perfect for formal weddings.
Conclusion
A custom suit designer can help you with all these selections and deliver you an ultimate linen summer wedding suit or tuxedo, which you can flaunt in style and great comfort.
