Spring & Summer Suit Guide For Men

About this video

Weston and Jordan O’Brien from The Gentleman’s Cove discuss how to select and style suits appropriate for spring and summer months. They cover seasonal color and pattern choices, fabric options like linen and lightweight wool, hemming styles to flatter different body types, and shoe pairings for warm-weather suiting.

Key takeaways

• Weston argues that darker-colored suits can work in spring and summer if they feature patterns like windowpane or plaid, which break up the fabric and make them feel seasonally appropriate
• Weston recommends lightweight wool fabrics between 8-8.5 ounces as more versatile than linen for spring and summer, though she notes linen is breathable for tropical climates despite wrinkles
• Weston advises that showing ankle with no-break hems requires proper tapering from knee to ankle to avoid a baggy appearance, and recommends this look primarily for slimmer builds; she suggests slight break hems as a more versatile option for different occasions
• Weston recommends penny loafers and suede double monk straps as ideal shoe choices for spring and summer suiting
