Men's Linen Suit – Two-Piece Slim Fit Blazer and Trousers

Men's Linen Suit – For the wedding that turns out to be outdoors in August

A matched two-piece in lightweight linen: a blazer with a classic lapel and patch pockets, and trousers cut to go with it. Slim through the body without being tight. This is the suit for the events where a wool one would have you looking for shade by the second drink.

Why choose a linen suit?

Linen breathes in a way that no other suiting fabric manages, which is the entire reason it exists. It also creases, and that is not a fault — a linen suit is supposed to look lived in by the end of the evening. Fighting that with an iron every hour misses the point of wearing it.

• Matched two-piece – blazer and trousers cut from the same cloth, in the same tone.
• Lightweight linen – the fabric that actually works above 25 degrees.
• Slim fit – a clean silhouette that follows the body rather than hanging off it.
• Classic lapel – formal enough for a wedding, relaxed enough for a terrace.
• Splits up well – the blazer works over a plain tee, the trousers with a shirt.

The suit you are glad you brought when the ceremony runs long.

Linen relaxes as you wear it, so take your normal size rather than sizing up for comfort. Hang the jacket the moment you take it off and most of the creasing drops out overnight. If it needs pressing, do it slightly damp on a medium iron; a dry hot iron flattens the texture that makes linen worth wearing.
