01 | THE LIGHT-HUED SUIT
Be it men or women, everyone should own a suit, and this season, light-toned options are the ones to look into. An unsung hero of elegance, the light-coloured suit transcends trends. However, its frequent association with warmer months tends to pigeonhole its timeless allure and versatility.
When executed cleverly, the light-coloured suit is quite a thing of quiet power. At Tom Ford, Peter Hawkings finessed a handful of dandy, rocker-style suits in a pristine, fresh palette of sandy neutrals and soft pastels.
Defined by an uber slim cut, the suits are Mod-style glamorous despite their pale hues; their distinct narrow fit a clean-cut vision of formal wear perfection. Hawkings even added satin panels down the sides of a pair of ankle-grazing trousers for one powder pink offering, turning the candy confection into an instant handsome tuxedo must-have.
The traditional purview of a suit demands matching trousers and jackets. Still, with today's fashion-forward men, the nifty art of mixing and matching is penultimate to building an enduring and functional wardrobe.
That said, a light-coloured suit jacket allows for great opportunities in stylistic mash-ups, too. Done with consummate taste (and skill), pairing a light suit jacket with a pair of trousers in a contrasting or complementary shade elevates an ensemble, adding flair and visual interest.
02 | THE FANCY SHIRT
In the ever-evolving world of men's fashion, designers are constantly challenged to infuse classic pieces with unique, eye-catching details. Props go to Hermes' Veronique Nichanian for acing this with a welcoming marriage between shirt construction and accessory styling.
