Our vote: buy a tailored suit that can do all of the above, and more. Even better, our modern tailoring collection has been designed to fit like a tailor made suit, right off the rack.

When you’re looking to enter the brave, stylish new world of modern office style, the smartest move is to pick a few wildly versatile colours, then mix and match.

First up: navy. Forget the inky navy shades of your father’s custom suits. Brighter blues are the new navy suit. Take a moment to consider your complexion – your skin tone and hair colour – and choose your shade of blue suit.

And listen, there’s a reason why navy blues are the cornerstone of every good collection of tailored suits. The blue suit has an built-in advantage: it helps bring out the tones of everything else you’re wearing, helping brown leather pop and crisp white shirts take charge. (That’s why navy blues tend to make brilliant wedding suits.)
