With the sun making a proper appearance, your calendar’s about to fill up with events that call for something a little sharper in the wardrobe department. And let’s be honest - finding the right smart-casual balance in menswear isn’t always straightforward. That’s where our suiting collection steps in. A vibrant lineup of Fintry blazers and Alp trousers, built to be tailored to every occasion. From weddings to date nights, we’ve got a suit that’s perfectly suited to it. So if you’re not sure what to wear, when to wear it, or how to pull it all together - consider this your foolproof guide to suiting up for summer.
The Characterful Cocktail Party
You’ve been daydreaming about golden hour drinks since the first ray of sun broke through the clouds - and now that it’s finally here, you need an outfit that rises to the occasion. Like a well-made cocktail, a standout look comes down to balance, the right mix of ingredients, and just the right splash of personality. Enter the statement shirt. If bold colour’s your thing, go for our tan suit paired with the Didcot shirt in that eye-catching watercolour abstract print - it’s a bold-hues dream combo. Want something a little more low-key? Our black seersucker suit keeps things sharp and understated, especially when paired with the peach floral Didcot - still a statement, just a little more subtle. Either way, it’s an outfit worth raising a glass to.
The Balmy Summer Wedding
The best man. The best-dressed man. Both titles have your name on them - just depends on the suit you show up in. Let us make it easy for you with two linen standouts. First up, our pale pink suit: bold, confident, and built for a sun-soaked summer wedding. Let the colour do the talking and pair it with the Pavilion linen tie in natural to keep things balanced. Prefer something a little more understated? Our rich merlot suit has you covered - ideal if you’re thinking day-to-night versatility. Want to tie the look together (literally)? Bring the pink back in with the Pavilion tie. Either way, you’re showing up breezy, polished, and as the guest who’s dressed the best.
The (Dressed Up) Casual Affair
Sometimes you just want to be the best-dressed guy in the room - even if the dress code is low-key. And honestly, the simplest way to earn that title is to show up in your sharpest suit - preferably one from Wax. Our picks? The navy seersucker or the rust linen. Both nail that balance between effortlessly cool and quietly refined, without overdoing it for the setting. Since it’s a more relaxed affair, there’s room to play with your base layer. The Didcot floral or doodle embroidered shirts in ecru bring a bit of character to your look - easy-going, eye-catching, and perfectly suited to the occasion. Don’t forget to pop that cuban collar - everyone needs to see those details.
The Networking Night Out
You could chat to a brick wall, mate. You're a businessman, doing business things, talking shop with other business types. Now it’s time to look the part, too. Naturally, considerations need to be made - this isn’t a black-tie event. A more easygoing take on tailoring is the way forward. The khaki and terracotta linen options are easy recommendations here. Both offer a pop of colour and personality - confident, not corporate, while still leaving a lasting impression - perfectly suited to such a setting. Keep everything else pared back. Brown loafers keep things sharp, and a clean Dean tee or Montague vest lets the suit - and your name tag - do the talking. You’re there to make connections, after all.
The Date Night Dinner
Date night deserves a bit of effort - and nothing says effortless charm like a breezy linen suit. Whether you’re out to impress a long-time partner or making moves on a first date, our navy linen suit is a timeless go-to. It’s a reliable winner that works across the board, especially when teamed with our knitted Naples polo shirt - classic, clean, and confident. Want to lean into the summer mood? Go for our natural linen suit. It’s got that sun-drenched Amalfi Coast energy, especially when styled with the soon-to-drop ecru tile Didcot shirt for a full tonal look. Just steer clear of anything too saucy on the menu - and maybe keep that napkin handy.
