The former Style Director at UK Esquire magazine, and now Editor-at-Large, Charlie Teasdale knows a thing or two about looking good. Charlie has a wealth of knowledge and expertise when it comes to modern menswear and styling, so it was a pleasure to have him in store recently, offering advice on how to style our suit collection this season.
So how are you approaching tailoring in 2024 Charlie?
"Well we're in a really interesting place right now with regards to suits. The classic shape, especially with a straight narrow leg, has taken a bit of a back seat to a much more relaxed idea of the suit that's worn more like an extension of your casual wardrobe. Trouser styles have become a lot more loose-fitting, or they're coming with more of a cropped shape which is really cool. That old idea of the suit as strictly uniform or smart business attire has gone, and in its place is a more expressive and relaxed notion of the suit, which is great when it comes to styling because you have so many more options at your disposal."
