A suit that knots instead of buttons. Emerald wool, the blazer wrapped and tied at the waist with a cut-out on each side, over matching high-waisted wide-leg trousers, long enough to hide the shoe. Jacket worn on its own. One colour head to toe is how I avoid decisions. Dinner, and after.
A fitted emerald wool blazer that wraps and knots at the waist, leaving cut-outs at each side, over matching high-waisted wide-leg trousers.
A blazer in emerald wool twill with peak lapels and padded shoulders, fitted through the body, that crosses at the front and ties into a folded knot at the waist. The wrap leaves a triangular cut-out at each side, and the tails of the tie fall over the hip like a half-belt. The trousers are the same cloth: high-waisted, wide, pressed down the front, long enough to cover the shoe.
It is a suit for people who do not want to look like they are wearing a suit. Office in the cooler months, a dinner after, an event where a dress would be the obvious choice. The jacket is worn on its own, open at the V and at the sides. Hair down, small hoops, the smartwatch and a bead bracelet, and no bag to spoil the line.
One colour, two pieces, a knot instead of a button. The concrete approves.
