Wearing a suit need not necessarily be for formal occasions or work. Sometimes you want to add some class to everyday affairs and a suit is the perfect piece of clothing to jazz things up. At the same time, it is good to have a bit of fun and break the rules. Here are some suggestions on how you can switch up your style with these suits.
Perfect Equilibrium
For those who could never decide whether they prefer a single-breasted jacket or a double-breasted one, Dior Men creative director Kim Jones solves that conundrum with this sleek hybrid.

A Fine Balance

Detail Oriented
The next step for luxe sneakers? Plenty of craft- oriented accents, such as the hand-stitched and textured details that are juxtaposed with sporty mesh in these sneakers.

Sign Language
Logomania will be sticking around for a while yet – accessories are a good way to get a (controlled) dose of a brand’s monogram.

Tonal Effect
Brown isn’t the easiest colour to wear – add crisp white pieces to brighten up the look and keep a camel-coloured ensemble sharp.

Time To Flex
The suits of today are cut for ease of movement – reason enough, we think, to jump for joy.
