For Spring/Summer 2024, tailoring is back
From Paul Smith and Dior to Loro Piana and Canali, these are the big tailoring moments for 2024
Words: Zak Maoui
You might've been led to believe that the suit had died a sad death. It seemed that the mainstay in the wardrobes of men had been given the boot, mainly as a result of the pandemic and a new work from home culture, and sure, we'd have agreed. But that was a few years ago now, and if anything, suits are back and better than ever.
We took a long hard look at the big Spring/Summer 2024 collections, and for our spring issue, decided to showcase the very best tailoring moments that the big designers, from Loro Piana and Dior to Canali and Paul Smith, were pushing. Sharp pleated trousers, plenty of ties and structured blazers are back, but alongside them were louche suits, and softer tailored two pieces. If anything, the suit 2.0 is as exciting as before it got given the chop.
See below for the best suits of the season...
