The Guerre Capsule

The Guerre Capsule

The Guerre Capsule is an example of a custom capsule wardrobe we designed for our friend and client Karl-Edwin Guerre.

Guerre is a menswear industry veteran. He's been a photographer, writer, stylist, brand consultant - and most recently he has launched one of the premier menswear publications; No Chaser Magazine.

For his AOS capsule, Guerre wanted to focus on two Summer suits that can 1) dressed-up or dressed-down and 2) be mixed-and-matched together in any combination. 

So we started with a black seersucker and a cigar linen (two of my personal favorite lightweight suits) - then we added some versatile pieces that can be styled with both suits (or seperates) to give him a range of outfits from "formal" to "casually chic".

Below are the 10 items in Guerre's capsule. See the photo gallery for some of the 25+ different outfits he can create by mixing-and-matching only these 10 items in different combinations).

THE 10 ITEMS

1. No Chaser Jacket in Black

The No Chaser Jacket is an unstructured double-breasted jacket made from one of our all-time favorite fabrics - solid black seersucker. Almost like magic, this one is formal, sexy, casual ,and laidback all at the same time. Wear it as a stylish go-to jacket for going out or pair it with the matching trousers (and vest) for a killer suit.

2. No Chaser Trouser in Black

The No Chaser Trouser is a classic trouser made from one of our all-time favorite fabrics; solid black seersucker. Almost like magic, this one is formal, sexy, casual and laidback all at the same time. Wear it as a stylish go-to pant (a great replacement for jeans in the Summer), or pair it with the matching jacket (and vest) for a killer suit.

3. Guerre Jacket in Cigar

The Guerre Jacket is an unstructured double-breasted jacket made from one of our favorite Spring/Summer fabrics - pure linen in cigar. This one is lightweight, breathable, and full of casual nonchalant charm. The color is vibrant and versatile; it adds a heavy dose of style whether you're wearing it casually (with chinos or jeans) or pairing it with the matching trousers for a killer suit.

4. Guerre Trouser in Cigar

The Guerre Trouser is a classic trouser made from one of our favorite Spring/Summer fabrics - pure linen in cigar. This one is lightweight, breathable, and full of casual nonchalant charm. The color is vibrant and versatile; it adds a heavy dose of style whether you're wearing it casually (with polos and t-shirts) or pairing it with the matching jacket for a killer suit. 

5. Edwin Performance Knit Shacket

The Edwin Performance Knit Shacket is our famous shacket (a cross between a shirt and a jacket) made from an extremely soft performance knit fabric that is built for comfort, mobility, and casual style. This beautiful two-tone knit is comprised of teal and navy blue - giving it a unique color and texture that is still very versatile (pair it with everything from earthtones to monochromatic combos).

6. Karl Tab Collar Shirt in White

The Karl Tab Collar Shirt is a classic button-down shirt made from a white chambray fabric with a club collar that has a built-in snap tab closure. If you're looking for a go-to white shirt with a little more character and sartorial charm, this is it.

7. Classic Silk Grenadine Tie in Black

The ultimate black tie that every gentleman should have in his wardrobe. A classic silk grenadine black, handmade in Italy. Perfect for formal, semi-formal, cocktail attire, special events or just getting sexy.

8. Palm Beach Linen Shirt in Khaki

The Palm Beach linen shirt is a classic button-down shirt cut from a beautiful 100% linen fabric made in Italy. The khaki color is subtle, tasteful, and a very underrated addition to anyone's wardrobe. This one is as classic and versatile as a basic white shirt - only more stylish and much breezier.

9. Hamilton Elevated T-Shirt in Oatmeal

The Hamilton t-shirt is not your basic t-shirt. It's thicker, sturdier and built to last the test of time thanks to our famous elevated performance fabric.

10. Rocky Polo in Oatmeal

The Rocky polo is classic, stylish and comfortable. We took a retro polo shape, updated the fit and modernized it in luxury Egyptian cotton that's soft, breathable and perfect for everyday style.
