The linen suit is one of those pieces that only works in specific conditions and knowing those conditions is most of the battle. It’s a warm weather suit and it behaves accordingly. In the right context which is summer weddings and garden parties and holidays somewhere that justifies it it looks genuinely brilliant. Relaxed and considered at the same time. The kind of thing that reads as effortless because the fabric itself is doing a lot of the work. Outside that context and particularly in cooler temperatures linen loses something and the creasing that looks charming in a garden in July looks like you slept in it on a Tuesday in October. The creasing is worth accepting as part of the deal rather than fighting against because trying to keep linen perfectly pressed defeats the purpose of wearing it. A natural or off white linen suit with a simple open collar shirt and loafers is the combination we keep coming back to because it’s genuinely hard to improve on.
