Choosing a summer suit can present a dilemma – stay cool in lighter fabrics but risk looking scruffy, or sweat it out in a more traditional wool-heavy cloth? Luckily, you don’t have to compromise at all with Chester Barrie’s spring/summer suit, which is a very wearable 50% wool, 30% silk and 20% linen blend, and will provide a pleasing balance of drape, sheen and comfort. Whether it’s for the inevitable round of summer weddings, parties and outdoor occasions or just days in the office where you need to keep your cool, it will see you through the warmer months well. Cut on the brand’s Ebury suit model, it has a smart, clean shoulder and broad peaked lapels, while mother-of-pearl buttons add an elegant finish. OK, you can stop looking at yourself in the mirror now – you’ve got an event to get to. chesterbarrie.co.uk
