White suits are the perfect spring and summer attire for men but before donning your first white suit, read our FAQs to make sure you’re doing it right.
What’s the occasion?
White suits are a guy’s best friend for a spring or summer outdoor event. Be it a wedding, garden party, evening on a yacht or a weekend beach house gathering. White suits should never be worn to the office or to a bar unless you’re holidaying in the Caribbean.
Which accessories?
Some guys kill their white suits by adding in especially bright and colorful men’s shirts or ties. Despite being only a single color, the white suit is an attention grabber so go subtle on the details. A light blue, pink or checked men’s dress shirt with a complimentary tie in a solid, medium color works best. Choose a contrasting pocket square, say lightly patterned or polka dotted and a slim brown belt and light brown leather men’s shoes.
Which fit?
Fit for a king. White suits show all the best aspects of guy’s physique so it’s important to get the fit right. Ask a Knot Standard bespoke advisor for details on how to ensure the perfect fit or try our cutting edge web cam technology from your computer.
