In France, most weddings take place during the summer season . However, some major events can also be celebrated in winter. Similarly, some men are forced to wear a suit all year round to go to the office. So, which style should you choose when winter arrives?
At IZAC, we're committed to offering you clothing for all your desires and styles. That's why we offer suits made from a variety of materials. However, some fabrics are better suited to cold temperatures and rain.
Wool is ideal for staying warm. Highly versatile and thick, it's an excellent barrier against the cold, making it equally suitable for professional and ceremonial settings. Other benefits: wool has the particularity of not wrinkling. What's more, given its thickness, it offers a perfect drape!
Are you looking for a shinier and more refined suit? In that case, silk can be another alternative. Ideal for a winter suit, it is often blended with other materials such as wool to create a warm, fluid, and thermoregulating garment.
Finally, cotton velvet is another great classic for winter suits. It has the advantage of allowing the body to breathe and preventing excessive perspiration. There are two types of finishes: shaved velvet, which is more understated, or corduroy, which stands out with its vertical lines.
If you're the chilly type, a suit vest can also complement your outfit. Ideal for special occasions, it's also a favorite among dandies. Made from natural fibers, it offers better insulating properties. Hipsters are also fond of it!
Of course, the choice of tie or bow tie will also be important. Indeed, some styles have a more summery look while others are more favored in winter. A tweed or knitted wool tie can add a touch of originality to an outfit. Conversely, silk or pastel-colored ties are often reserved for sunny days.
Even if it's chosen in wool or cashmere, the suit is not enough to guarantee perfect insulation to face the winter cold. That's why it's better to wear it with a coat . Here again, not all models harmonize with an elegant look. With a winter suit, forget the down jacket and opt for the pea coat or the overcoat. The latter have a more formal style. Elegant and loose, they will offer you a certain ease of movement, while completely covering your suit jacket.
For shoes, in winter, Richelieu , Derbies or Chelsea Boots are ideal. On the other hand, avoid loafers or sneakers, which are better suited to short trousers and worn without socks.
