Most guys think leveling up their wardrobe starts with buying a more expensive suit, or a more traditional one. The truth is much simpler: your fabrics choices matter the most.
When your pieces compliment each other with the right colors, textures and weights, everything works together - and suddenly you’re getting more outfits from fewer items.
A great example is a dark green flannel paired with a natural tweed. Both are seasonal, both have complimentary textures, and both sit in the same level of formality. This way, you can mix the jacket, the trousers, and the vests together… each individual piece speaks to the others. The best part is; because they are cohesive, they pair with the same shirts, ties, sweaters, etc - with zero effort.
See this video for a quick breakdown of this pairing:
The real key is cohesion. Not more clothes — better combinations.
Below are a few more pairings we love to use when building out a client’s wardrobe. They’re versatile, timeless, and designed to expand your outfit options instantly - while saving you time, stress and money in the long run.
