Suit with a difference: Fresh impulses for the classic

Inthe last post, we celebrated the classic suit as a timeless statement. This week, we are devoting ourselves to the modern interpretation of the suit, which impresses with fresh cuts and sophisticated combinations.

An innovative approach is the use of an "informal jacket" instead of the traditional suit jacket. With its functional and urban look, it offers a modern alternative, but remains elegant and versatile when combined with suit trousers. The use of knitted elements is just as exciting: a high-quality knitted sweater under the suit top replaces the classic shirt and gives the outfit a relaxed, yet stylish touch - perfect for a modern business look with a touch of casualness.

The mix of materials also brings a breath of fresh air into the wardrobe. It is particularly interesting when structured fabrics such as wool, tweed or flannel meet patterns such as chalk stripes or checks. These combinations create depth and give the suit an individual, characterful look.

PS: We make all the looks shown to measure according to your wishes – from the suit with "informal jacket" to the knitted sweater to the Chelsea boot.
