Summer Groom Trends

Spice up your groom’s wedding-day look by incorporating colour and pattern. By Teresa Morgado

If you and your groom are tired of standard tuxedos or the basic shirt, tie and suit combos available, we have some good news! The formalwear experts at Syd Silver Formals report that summer formal trends are moving in a fun and lively direction. It’s all about experimenting with colour and pattern from his suit to the pocket square in his blazer. Here are three easy ways to infuse a little pizzazz into your groom’s getup:

Suits: Don’t be afraid to mix and match, like a classic white or cream blazer, paired with a sleek pair of black tuxedo pants (a favourite red-carpet combo of Jay-Z), the contrast is a nice change from an outfit that is all one tone. If mixing tops and bottoms is a little too bold for your groom, try subtle pinstripes. There are tons of great fresh and modern options, such as a brown suit with thin orange stripes or a grey suit with light blue stripes.

Pocket squares, ties and waistcoats: Incorporate playful patterns like stripes, paisleys and florals into your groom’s accessories. Match a pattern to your groom’s personality and opt for vibrant colours like violet, mint green or hot pink!

Shirts: While a classic white shirt is always in style for the big day, he may want to kick it up a notch. Look for a modern, fitted shirt that has bold colour, pattern, or both! Pairing pattern on pattern (i.e. striped tie with a checkered shirt) is a great way to make his ensemble really stand out.
