Gentlemen listen carefully, suits aren’t only supposed to be black and white. This guide is meant to educate you on other colours you can explore while on a night out.
Whether you are the groom or going to a formal event, you get tired of wearing the same black and white tux that you hid in your wardrobe for special occasions. Learn to explore more vibrant colours to complete your look.
At every fashion event, we see men wearing the same colours no matter what the theme is and we are tired (so please wrap it up).
GroomClub hub provides a comprehensive guide on formal wedding attire, covering white-tie, black-tie, cocktail, semi-formal, and beach weddings.
The hub says that a white tie requires a black tailcoat, slacks and shirt, as well as bow ties and shoes. Black-tie weddings demand a black tuxedo or midnight blue suit, whereas cocktail wear is usual for summer or autumn weddings. Semi-formal weddings are versatile, with white suits in the summer and dark brown suits in the autumn or winter.
The XposedLondon hub lists 4 things that you need to consider when choosing the perfect suit colour:
- Consider the occasion: The hub states the type of event determines the style and material of the outfit.
- Evaluate your wardrobe: Before buying a new suit check to see if you already own any suits in the same shade. If not, try another colour.
- Match your skin tone: The most essential thing to consider when choosing a suit colour is hot it matches your skin tone the hub suggests lighter for medium and darker skin tones, and deep and dark for a fairer complexion.
- Consider your skin’s undertones: Silver or platinum jewellery may appear better on those with warm skin tones.
