Looking for summer drapey suit
Hello friends! I’m looking for a suit specifically for summer weddings. Here are the criteria I’m looking for:
- fabric: generous, drapey, flowy, textured
- colour: somewhere from the spectrum of oatmeal to brown
- pants: high waist, wide leg
- jacket: generous lapels, low button point
- ideally has short options, or at least the coat is cut in such a way that I can get 1-2 inches removed without it looking off
- I’m undecided between single breasted and double. I’d like to go with double in my heart but feel like it may be too much.
Top of the candidate list right now is Scott Fraser’s draped brown hatch wool (first photo on their website), though that fabric might be too warm for the summer. In also slightly concerned it’s a bit showy, but the weddings in question are people I’m very close to so I’m not that worried.
Other brands I’ve looked at: Epaulet, Husbands Paris, Suit Supply. Lemaire and Evan Kinori both seem like great options but they are out of budget.
Speaking of which: budget is flexible but let’s say around 1K usd to start. Since im also in the market for separate trousers fitting the above description I’m willing to spend more if I can kill two birds with one stone.
Does anyone have more recommendations that fit the above description? Thanks!
