I feel the need, the need for tweed! Ok that was a little cliche, but I couldn't resist. I love tweed jackets, pants, suits, hats; everything really. And my obsession for the rough looking fabric is finally justified. I popped open this month's issue of GQ and was stunned by the plethora of designers incorporating tweed into their modern fits and styles. With fall right around the corner, the time is now to start checking out some tweed additions to your wardrobe. Today I'll go over three patterns that you can consider and how this new generation of tweeds is not your grandfather's fabric.
The Tweed Sports Coat
"Yah that suit's pure herringbone. Yah, that's a suit I'd like to own." The Coasters had it right when they crooned their song,
Shoppin' for Clothes. Herringbone is probably my favorite pattern, next to Glenplaid. I currently own a herringbone tweed sports coat, and it is easily the most versatile piece of outerwear in my wardrobe. It works in summer as much as in winter: during the hot months I roll up the sleeves and show off some of the lining, and if I can see my breath outside then I don some fingerless wool gloves along with it. I love matching a sports coat with a polo as well, and there are few better fabrics that will complement a polo as well as tweed does.
The Tweed Suit
I know we've all seen the goofy college professor who wore head-to-toe tweed every day of his life, but modern tweed suits are all about trim cuts and comfortable fabric that will redefine the way you think about tweed. Now, it's not a suit you will be wearing to a black tie event, but nonetheless is an appropriate choice for most offices. The best part of a tweed suit is that you can pair it with bold accessories: think plaid shirts, boldly colored ties, bright socks and so on. The trick is to use one or two eye catching pieces, not all of them together. The last thing you want is to stack them on top of each other in a seemingly endless fashion, unless you're trying to be photographed by
The Sartorialist, that is.
Tweed Pants
Now you could buy a full tweed suit and only wear it with the jacket, but that seems like a waste. Whether you utilize the pants from a suit set or buy a new pair, tweed pants are as versatile as they are fashionable. Again, bold accessories will be a great accessory for tweed pants. As usual, make sure the fit is perfect and you have only a slight break on your shoes.
Thanks for reading. As always,
be dapper.
