Black is a classic and very formal color for men’s suits. One of the reasons why black is so popular is that the black suit can be worn with shirts and accessories of almost any color; it can also look very crisp and sharp. Black suits are always in fashion and indicate the height of sophistication and elegance.
But black suits can also be overly formal, and can feel out of place in the everyday business world. You might also appear to be usurping your boss’s authority if your black suit outranks his grey or navy choice.
Black suits for men can be worn for formal events as well as business purposes. If you are looking for something different, you can do away with the jacket and wear the suit with a casual shirt.
Black suits in linen are not appropriate for winter.
