Summer-proof with our new linen suits

Summer-proof with our new linen suits

Lovely summer weather is on its way again! Time to update your wardrobe with light, airy pieces. But let's be honest: warm weather doesn't always make it easy to dress smartly and stylishly. At GENTS we understand that, which is why our brand-new collection includes a range of light, elegant linen suits. Let our new looks inspire you, and read our style tips on how to arrive at the office in style on a tropically hot day.

Light, airy linen suits from GENTS

Stylish, lightweight, breathable and entirely of the moment: that is what the GENTS linen suits are all about. These suits are crafted from a linen-cotton blend that is not only breathable, but also has a subtle stretch. The stretch gives just that little bit of extra freedom of movement, without the suit losing its elegant shape. You stay cool all day long, and you look sharp too.

Most of the suits in our collection are made from stretch fabric, so you can move freely, even on a long day out and about. The breathable fabric prevents heat from building up. Another advantage of our linen suits is that they keep their shape beautifully, from morning to evening. No more limp lapels or creased trousers at the end of the day.

Linen suits in different colours and styles

Our linen blend suits collection comes in a fresh colour palette. This summer is all about soft pastel shades and refined details. Swap your black or navy suit for a trendy shade such as petrol. This deep, stylish blue gives a summery twist. Or be surprised by dove blue, a shade that looks a touch lighter and has a chic appeal without becoming stiff.

Prefer a suit with a natural vibe? Then mist green is ideal: subtle, calming and perfect to combine with neutral tones. For a truly summery look with class, an ivory suit is the ideal choice. This neutral colour radiates luxury and elegance without being showy.

Style advice from GENTS

With a linen suit you can combine endlessly. Depending on the occasion, you can easily adapt your look. At GENTS we are happy to help you find the perfect look for a summer garden party as well as a business meeting.

Attending a wedding? Then choose a dove blue or mist green suit with a light blue shirt, a pocket square in a pastel shade and light brown leather lace-up shoes. As a guest, it's best to leave the ivory suit on the hanger: white is for the bridal couple. With sunglasses close at hand, you're ready for a summer ceremony in style.

For a garden party or summer drinks, opt for a relaxed, nonchalant style. Go for a mist green suit with a basic white T-shirt and beige loafers. Roll up the sleeves of your shirt for a laid-back summer vibe. A linen suit doesn't have to be stiff or formal.

A linen suit is also your partner at a business meeting. Combine a dove blue suit with a white shirt and smart lace-up shoes for a presentable look that won't make you too warm. Or choose a linen suit in a houndstooth pattern for a timeless look with a classic touch. Feel free to leave the tie at home: with an open collar you look fresh, stylish and professional.
