SAY YES TO THE SUIT

From office chic to best-dressed wedding guest, a bright suit is surprisingly versatile ֠and on trend for right now, too

Colourful suits are big news this season: look at the catwalks and you’ll see a palette of mouth-watering shades complementing soft tailoring. Our favourite find is this lilac two-piece. Boasting a flattering fit and eye-catching shade, it’ll cast aside any preconceptions you have about suits being dull. Wear it with a white shirt and minimalist mules for a modern take on workwear, or dress down with a simple T-shirt and sneakers for the weekend. It’s also the perfect choice for an eye-catching wedding guest look. On chillier days, swap the shorts for the straight-cut pant option.
