SUMMER STYLE
|
|
While overall style trends point to slimmer
silhouettes, and trimmer fits, summer is the perfect time to loosen up a
bit. Key pieces to consider for the season include unlined cotton and
linen trousers and jackets, in a range of colors from the most neutral beige to
bold and vibrant tones.
Allow us to propose three trouser styles for summer: a slimmer fitting
flat front for the fashion adventurous, a roomier fitting single pleat or a
more traditional double pleat for those who prefer comfort. Consider a
forward facing pleated model in the English tradition for a seasonal change of
pace.
Sustaining summer style is easy with custom options that give a very
personal approach to each item in your wardrobe. The end result is a customized wardrobe
where every item is your favorite style with just the right details. Whether it's sartorial details like buttoning
surgeon's cuffs or a ticket pocket or hand pic-stitching on a power suit for
breakfast in the boardroom or your favorite pocket flaps on your golf slacks, choosing the appropriate
custom elements can diversify a wardrobe and provide versatility.
Keeping cool this summer is easier in your choice of custom fabrics in
sophisticated weights, weaves and textures all designed for lightweight comfort
and ease.

Q & A - ASK MICHAEL THOMAS

Question:
Everyone seems to be going "green" these days. Is there a way
to go "green" in my wardrobe, too?
Answer:
Being environmentally friendly with your fashions begins by choosing the right
fiber. Cotton is a miracle of nature. It's not only the
world's most plentiful natural fiber, but it also produces enough seed to
replenish our fiber needs while providing additional seed for food, feed and
even oil. Cotton is sustainable, renewable, and biodegradable, making it an
excellent choice as an environmentally-friendly fiber throughout its entire
product life cycle. Most chemical fibers are petroleum based, which means they
come from nonrenewable resources. So you can feel good about
selecting your favorite cotton shirts and casual trousers knowing you are doing
your part to be eco-conscious.
