For this summer, if you have followed the collections, almost all fashion houses presented clothes presented outfits in bright, strong colorful solids and patterns.
We know though, that a good part of men feel kind of reluctant to wearing bright colors, bold patterns and unexpected fabrics. Of course, this goes back to a time when people used to be judged just by their clothes and when clothes had a bigger and different significance than today. You can read our article “Fashion History: The Dandy” to learn more about this trend that focused more on appearance and less on personality.
Today, clothes need to match our personality and not a standard imposed by the culture.
There are enough designers, clothes and styles out there to fit every person, as you can combine things, which is what we like to do, in order to create a style of your own. Remember our motto: Creating style out of fashion!
There is no big philosophy behind wearing colorful jackets or suits. Colorful suits are simply suits, just that they are bright and colorful. The important thing you need to remember is that the clothes you wear need to match the occasion! Usually, formal events require black suits and classic attire, while more casual events, like a fun summer party require less formal clothes. And this is the time and place to wear colorful suits: a great party in the summer, where you want to shine and stand out, or a casual meeting are good occasions to wear these suits.
When it comes to business, we don’t recommend that you wear such colorful clothes: it will look like you are trying too hard. However, if you are going to a job interview or a similar meeting, you can wear colorful clothes if you work in the creative industry. If you are not sure about whether you should wear one or not, you can always go for just a tie. You can read our complete guide to choosing a tie to learn how to pick the perfect tie.
