and probably a white linen shirt from the same brand
also i will pair them with a black leather belt i have
and for shoes i was thinking black leather loafers but i not very sure about that
All recommendations are welcome

I think a linen suit is a great idea especially for the weather, Imo if you have the time I might check secondhand before buying new this is the kind of of thing that pops up relatively often especially if you know your measurements to look. but the idea of linen suit + loafers is great
Thank you so much
I don't know my measurements but that's not the problem since i can find them eazily
Where sould I look for a second hand suit
Vinted, Grailed, Ebay. To find measurements take a jacket that already fits you well and measure the pit to pit, shoulders, length, sleeve
Thank you I will check them out
Any ideas for a tie
Should I go for something specific
pretty up to you, depending on what suit color you get. linen is also a pretty informal fabric so it can look great without a tie if you go that route like the suit from la chimera

Um I don't know prom is abit formal so
Maybe I do need to wear a tie
Or I can just wear it at the start and then after the ceremony at the party I can just take it off
yeah for sure, a tie will look good
What color should I buy the suit in
And with which tie I can math it the best
Whatever you like most
I like navy but I think I will look just like everyone else
I mean that’s not a awful thing navy suits are popular for a reason
Do you have any other suit recommendations preferably linen around 250€
COS does some that are around there
