If you subscribe to Hardy Amies’
famous maxim that a man should look
as if he has put on his clothes with care
and then promptly forgotten all about
them, you may well be sceptical of the
statement suit. But with careful
planning and precise attention to
details, it can pay to be bold. “When
wearing strong colours and patterns,
having your suit altered to fit is vital,”
says James Jee, head of menswear at
luxury Brit brand Jaeger. “If you’re
going to draw attention, the basics
need to be right: trousers that don’t
pool at the ankle, sleeves cut to allow
your shirt cuffs to show, and so on.”
