Suit up with MW
Hot off our exclusive ‘Suit Special’ – here are the best ways to wear a suit
Every man’s go-to set of garments for smart dressing comes together in classic and new forms, three piece or double breasted, pinstripes or plaid, black tie or casual in-cotton – there are many ways to make a strong suit statement
Two-button deal
The two-button suit is an essential for every man. In grey or navy, look for details that set them apart. a silk piping or metal buttons, worn with a checked tie and shirt, or a linear print under a pullover — it brings it all together.
On Nitin:
Silk piping detail suit and printed shirt, both by ARROW; knit pullover by H&M
On Mitali:
Faux leather blazer and pleated trousers, both by ARROW
Black out
The tux will play its part well even when worn with a black shirt. A self printed shirt can add another dimension to this all-black look.
On Nitin:
Tuxedo and printed shirt, both by PAUL SMITH; calfskin derby shoes by CANALI
On Mitali:
Bikini top by SHIVAN & NARRESH; trousers by MANISH MALHOTRA; leather gloves by RAJESH PRATAP SINGH; leather boots, FOREVER 21
Close knit
Make your suit well equipped for cooler weather by using one or more woolen layers. An oversized suit with a chunky knit sweater or a scarf worn along your lapel will both do the trick.
On Siddharth:
Oversized suit with pleated trousers, waist belt bag, all by ERMENEGILDO ZEGNA; shirt by CANALI; chunky knit pullover by SALVATORE FERRAGAMO; monk strap shoes by HERMÈS
On Mihir:

Colour coded
Wearing colour on your suit is a great way to change things up. There are many ways to subtly mix reds and blues in similar muted tones or wear a deep green suit to take a break from the neutrals.

Layer by layer
A slim suit doesn’t leave you with too many options for layering. However, a mock shirt hem on a pullover is going to add a third layer without getting too stuffy.
Two-button suit and shirt, both by VAN HEUSEN; crew neck sweatshirt by KOOVS
Shades of blue
Navy is part of every man’s wardrobe, but now, you can wear it with tints and shades of blue. A powdery blue shirt with a pullover or a basic turtleneck can keep the focus on the pinstripe, whether it’s thick or thin.
