Stay sharp, stay professional

Suits are the cornerstone of the professional wardrobe for a reason. Their versatility makes them the perfect blend of style and sophistication. But with more people swapping the traditional offices for work-from-home scenarios, knowing what to wear, and when to wear it, is paramount.

To look your best without fail every time, all you really need is one suit. With the right styling know how, it can carry you through any scenario that requires you to step up and look sharp.

Here are four ways to wear a suit that will make you the best dressed person in the room or Zoom.

A modern colour

What colour suit should I buy is one of the most common questions when it comes to work attire. Timeless blue, from rich navy to lighter shades, is ideal for someone who prefers to keep their look stylish yet simple.

Patterns are another way to keep your suit looking modern. A subtle check, or windowpane pattern, adds extra colour that can be nicely complimented with a tie in matching shades.

Keep it tailored

Maintaining a standard of style as people return to the office will be one of the best ways to make the transition easier. Breaking down the suit into separates can add some variety to different outfits while maintaining the benefit of a tailored finish. This is particularly easy to do with a classic blue suit thanks to the versatility of the colour.

To combine the best of both professional and relaxed style, team your jacket with a casual, yet well-fitted, pair of chinos. This is perfect for those days that may require a sudden change of scenery such as a trip to the office or a lunch meeting.

You can keep your style fresh by swapping out your tie for a pocketsquare. As offices embrace a more fluid approach to work attire, so has the opportunity for personal expression.

A new style of business

Whether you’re working from home or back in the office, you still need to look your best and the latest buzzword in the office when it comes to style is business casual. Suits have the benefit of looking sophisticated but with attention to detail are the perfect business casual look and ready to work from anywhere.

If you’re working from home, relaxed comfort is key. One way to achieve this is by swapping your collared shirt for a simple T-shirt or polo to maintain some collared finesse. Polo shirts combine the relaxed nature of a T-shirt and the more traditional silhouette of a collared shirt.

Your footwear choice is also important. A pair of low-cut sneakers in white or tan leather will make sure your style remains on point from the ground up.

Going corporate

For those jumping straight back into corporate mode, a perfectly fitting suit, crisp white shirt is the ultimate style statement. Finish this off with a tie that compliments your choice of tailoring.

A light blue tie is ideal as it creates a tonal effect that will compliment the colour of your suit. Otherwise, a pattern that includes shades of blue will stand out without overshadowing your whole outfit.
