THE EDIT

When the temperature rises, your styles doesn’t have to take a back seat. Summer suiting is all about keeping your look put together and professional, without breaking a sweat. But how to stand out in a sea of black suits? Here’s what you need to know:

• Choose natural meterials like cotton, viscose, lyocell or silk – they allow air to circulate and keep you comfortable even on the hottest of days.
• Forget stiff, heavy suits. Summer tailoring is all about the right choice of qualities and shapes: flowy, airy, soft and easy – offering you freedom of movement and maximum comfort while looking sharp.
• Go for smart layering: A blazer can be perfect for a cool morning commute or an evening network event, while you might want to shed a layer for a warm afternoon meeting – it’s all about flexibility.
