The trending style of double-breasted windowpane suiting doesn’t seem to be slowing and I’m loving it! There’s an air of classic old school to this look and when mixed with a little more mod elements like a slim tie and a printed pocket square, a classy debonair ensemble is your result.

This grey number I’m wearing is by DKNY in a super 100’s superfine wool. Even though the grid work of the windowpane isn’t a thick line, the subtlety is perfect to add stronger accessories to round out the outfit.

The refined look of a full suit is a sharp statement, but if you break apart the suit to separate pieces you can pair almost any block coloured trousers or chinos with this jacket hue for a smart casual outfit and a more relaxed vibe.
Being a great neutral coloured suit, I’ve pulled together a few examples below to share what I think could work if you have a similar style and colour jacket in your wardrobe.
As we have just moved into Autumn here in Aus, burgundy is no doubt an on-trend seasonal colour along with deeper shades of green being a great pairing with grey.

Be it cooler or warmer months, inject a little bolder colour into your look. Pink salmon hues marry really well with all tones of grey, while navy is always a classic act and companion with grey.
