With summer vibes rising, suiting choices become ever more important in finding that perfect balance of sartorial statement, fit and comfort. A lightweight wool suit will keep you sharp without the steam under the collar.
With a knock out collection this Spring Summer season from esteemed Australian designer Arthur Galan, I picked out the ‘Crato Suit’ from his dapper suiting collection, teaming it with a bold contrasting patterned accessory while maintaining those blue hues.
Arthur’s craft in fashion sees luxe European fabrics sculpt the shoulder of his suiting range, all with a collection of bold and classic pieces filled with dapper demeanour. After launching his self-titled label almost 20 years ago, Mr Galan has contributed to defining the contemporary Australian menswear landscape to what we sport today; a gentleman that appreciate quality and style.
I do love a windowpane suit (wouldn’t mind a couple more in the wardrobe); it brings a little greater style edge over a block colour suit. Pending on how daring you feel, there are fine or bold line choices on the market to measure to your taste.
What I love most about this number from Arthur Galan is the depth of which the lines are pronounced – a perfect balance of subtlety and statement in the pattern, not too bold and not too faint. It also helps to open your shirting choice be it a solid colour or slightly patterned. I’m sure I’ll be getting a fair bit of wear with this piece over the warmer months to come.
Stay dapper gents.
