5 Ways To Stay Stylish In The Summer
Getting dressed in the summer can usually present a challenge. We’d prefer to
stick with wearing as little and as light as possible, but those of us who have
to look put together and professional can feel like they are left with little to
no options to alleviate their situation. When you think of
menswear, you can
easily relate it to heavy dressing with multiple layers and form-fitting,
constricting garments. As tailors and custom clothiers, we’re here to provide
some easy solutions to get through the warmer months. Below are 5 ways to stay
cool; both sartorially and physically!
Stick to a lighter color palette. Darker colors keep in the heat and
usually look out of place for the summer aesthetic. You can still wear your
typical colors if you’re a fan of neutrals, but just go for medium shades
instead of traditional dark navy and charcoal if lighter ones are too drastic
for you. Various shades of browns are also great substitutes for black and pair
well with a wide variety of colors.
Focus on separates. If you still have to look professional during the
warm months, utilize two and three piece suit options that can be broken up and
worn on their own with lighter weight items. For example, a nice pair of
lightweight wool dress pants with a
100% cotton dress shirt and tie is a
heat-friendly menswear look while still remaining put together. Simply add a
vest for more formal events! Or, pair a linen sports coat with jeans and a
moisture-wicking polo for a casual weekend look.
Look for natural fibers. Cotton, linen, silk, and wool will be your best
friends this summer. Natural fibers release body heat and are extremely
breathable. When it comes to custom jackets, ask your tailor about what type of
lining fabric they use. Most are made with polyester which will make you feel
warm very quickly as synthetics trap in heat. All of our
jacket linings are 100%
cotton and feel like silk.
Choose canvas interfacing. If you’re going to wear a
suit or jacket, make
sure it is made with canvas inside as opposed to standard interfacing. A canvas
construction is made from horsehair wefts mixed with cotton and silk, making it
a natural fabric. This interior layer allow for your body heat to be released
and keep you cool instead of trapping all of that in. Most off-the-rack (and
even some custom) suiting is made with traditional synthetic interfacing and
glue, so be sure to ask your tailor what method they use. All of the
custom mens
suits at Reign Custom Tailors are proudly made using canvas construction.
Details in dressing. Lastly, regardless of what you decide to wear during
the summer months, don’t forget about tailoring! From jeans, t-shirts, and other
menswear casual clothing, we can tailor it all. You can still look put-together
and stylish no matter what the weather is like. We offer
