Everything a man needs to know

20 Classics every man should have in his wardrobe

Classics don’t mean boring, use them as a base as you build your own style!
grey suit
1          A plain grey or navy suit.
Even if it’s only worn a few times a year for that special occasion. Wear it formal with a shirt and tie or casual with polo shirt or lightweight sweater. Suit jackets can be teamed with chinos or jeans for a casual / smart look.

2.         A black tuxedo.
Ever popular and timeless classic, will last for years and will always be there for that special formal occasion. Wear a white dress shirt and a black self-tying bow. (Get the tied version for the dinner and pocket the self-tying for the relaxed look on the dance floor!)

3.         An overcoat
Short or long, cashmere or poplin trench, an overcoat is necessary to finish off an outfit and looks great formal or with jeans.

4.         A short casual jacket
An every day essential, poplin jacket for those chilly Spring and Autumn evenings.

5.         A pair of black trousers.
Dressed up or down, these can be called on for smart occasions where a suit is too formal and jeans too informal. Team them with a nice quality black leather belt to finish off the outfit.

6.         A leather jacket.
Just makes a man ooze confidence and style. Can be worn for any occasion and will look better with age.

7.         A dark cashmere cardigan.
Can be thrown on over t-shirts, polo shirts or formal shirts. Wear instead of a jacket, but still look smart.

8.         A dark v-neck sweater.
Wear over a t-shirt, polo shirt or formal shirt. Pairs with smart or casual trousers. Use it for a layered look.

9.         A white cotton shirt.
No man should be without this classic. Perfect for any occasion, wear with a tie or open necked under a sweater.
