A TONAL OUTFIT FOR NEW SEASON

By Steven Potter, 20 March 2019

Time travel might not exist yet, but we can let you know what ‘fits to flex in now to get in on that AW19 hype. And that’s basically the same thing, right? One of the biggest trends to come out of the AW19 shows during the men’s fashion weeks was tonal suiting – think Craig Green, MSGM and Valentino. So, we’ve created a smart look full of tonal tekkers for work, weddings and beyond. Keep scrolling...

The trick to tonality is to pick a base colour to work around – like the rusty hue of this blazer-and-trousers combo. Then, find some accompanying pieces that sit within the same spectrum – like that clay-coloured roll-neck. N.B: rust, beige, and shades of brown are your 70s-inspired shades of choice, but feel free to experiment with blues, greens, or whatever you're in the mood for.

As for accessories, visor-style sunnies with a hefty dose of 80s nostalgia are set to become the eyewear shape of choice for the new season, making them the perfect pick-up. Keep the tonality peaking with some socks in a mustard hue and to finish off, cop a pair of chunky Nike Tekno's in an optic-white colourway. Your parents may protest, but trainers with suiting is (thankfully) now more than acceptable. Just remember to keep them clean, yeah?
