This blue and white striped suit is made from a soft washed linen and features our signature ogival collar, the Meridian. Stand collar jackets are witnessing a resurgent popularity and styles like the Mandarin and Nehru collar are becoming an increasingly common sight at weddings and other special occasions, especially among modern grooms and guests looking for a unique alternative to the traditional linen suit. This would be the perfect outfit to wear to a spring or summer wedding, conveying formality and relaxed elegance at the same time.
-
The jacket is completely unstructured for ease of movement, and cut straight in the body to allow for a more relaxed fit. Because of its side slits, the jacket can be worn entirely buttoned up while sitting down, meaning it can be worn on its own without the need for a shirt underneath. Meanwhile, the loose fit linen trousers have an elastic waist and ruched cuffs that can be worn long for a full break or easily tailored for a half break.
-
Both jacket and trousers are made from linen fabric with a white and blue stripe pattern. Buttons are carved from natural horn and dyed blue. Pocket fabric is smooth 100% cotton satin. Zippers are the smoothest in the world and are made in Switzerland. All other internal finishings, from interfacings to bias binding to labels, are either cotton or linen.
-
This mandarin collar suit is entirely made in London, the birthplace of modern tailoring, using fabrics and trims sourced locally here in the UK.
