Men’s fashion trends are greatly different to
women’s. They exist, yes. But their cycle moves much slower. Nowhere is that
truer then of men’s suit trends. While there are distinct styles of suits that
feature amongst fashion trends I should note from the get-go that they’re not
unique to the year – in fact, many of the key looks you’ll find in this guide
will still be in-fashion come next year and beyond. Which is a great thing – it
means you can afford to spend more on a suit thus buying a quality piece of
workmanship that you’ll still be able to wear for many a year to come. The same
can’t be said of most fashion trends.
While suiting and formal-wear trends for men aren’t
seasonal (unless, of course, you’re talking about the weight of the cloth) and
play out over several years, the current styles continue the dominance of two
qualities that any modern suit you invest in should aspire to have:
The classic part is the easy part. A good suit for
this decade will take the best elements from the peak eras of men’s suiting
(think the formality of the Victorian era, the savoir faire of the 1930s and,
for some cuts, the skinny detailing of the 1960s) and apply them to a modern
silhouette.
The masculinity of a suit is less easy to define;
one can’t simply enter a tailors and say you want a suit infused with
masculinity. Sadly, it doesn’t work that way. Instead, suits right now are all
about a cut that compliments the male physique, a suit that broadens the
shoulders and trims the waist highlighting (or at least implying) an exercised
body. In short, it’s about a cut of a suit that makes you, the wearer, feel
more masculine and more confident. And feeling really is key. To some the
masculine element will be a suit that is clean cut, with few flourishes, to
others it means a suit full of extra details that it takes a certain attitude
to pull off well (I’d say that Tom Ford’s suits fall into the latter camp –
they’re highly masculine, but are made for a gent with a certain kind of
attitude to life).
It seems superfluous to include single breasted
suits in a trend article given they are never out of fashion. But despite them
being the default style, they’re also the dominant, on-trend suit cut for the
season. This sits in contrast to the double breasted suit being the on-trend
cut during the previous years.
The cut of the single breasted suit has currently
evolved to have two dominant styles:
The first of the two dominant single-breasted suit
styles is what I term a sleek cut. This is the suit for the slick chap who
wears his suits in something of a toned down way. They’re still impeccably made
and they’re never casual, but when it comes time to tick the masculinity box I
referred to earlier, this suit is for the chap who does so with restraint.
To give you an instant mental picture of the sleek
cut suit presently, think of it as inspired by the continuing popularity of all
things 1960s, a suit very akin to what the likes of Mad Men‘s Don Draper wears
into the office though one cut with a trimmer waist.
I’m still looking for the perfect term to describe
this cut of suit. At first I’d termed it the flair cut, but it took only a
moment to realise that that would imply that I was advocating a return to
flared trousers and suits. Nothing could be further from the truth. Instead
flair was meant to describe the extra, potentially overt, details it has; this
is a cut of suit for a gent who can comfortably wear those extra little details
that Joe Average generally lacks the confidence to wear out of fear of
derision.
So for those of you who are looking for that extra
something, both in their clothing and in their life, I proffer up the
(potentially temporarily named) confidence cut. As with all present day men’s
suits, it’s a cut that’s about the male physique and the revival of classic
suiting elements. Unlike the previous ‘sleek cut’ single breasted suit
described, however, it features one additional key attribute: instead of a slim
to medium notched lapel, this day’s confidence suit cut is all about peaked
lapels. In this regard, the suit cut sits as something of a 1930s and 1970s
revival – back then peaked lapels were the only kind worth having.
Double breasted suits and sportscoats
If there’s one cut that I’m glad I’ve been able to
return to my wardrobe it’s the modern, double-breasted suit. Those of you who
recall the last time that double breasted suits and sports coats were in
fashion may remember the boxy cut it inevitably came with. Fear not, that cut
has gone. In its place is one that defies what double breasted suits were
originally designed to do: hide a plump figure. Instead they’re now designed to
accent and to heighten the perfect masculine shape: the V-shaped, well worked
body.
