FALL 2016
K EY L O O K S This season, we aim to take the guesswork out of what to wear and how to wear it, while still maximizing wardrobe versatility. The following 38 looks — plus style tips — demonstrate the finer points of professional, social, off-duty, and formal dressing.
FALL 2016 KEY LOOKS
PROFESSIONAL BUSINESS FORMAL The professional wardrobe rests on the finely tailored shoulders of a suit. But it’s the accompaniments that give this category its gravitas: a custom dress shirt, perfectly proportioned tie, and pocket square show the world you mean business.
B U S I N E S S C A S UA L When working in a less formal environment, a sportcoat gets the nod over a suit. Team yours with a crisp Oxford shirt (sans tie) and chinos for a look that’s approachable yet savvy. Just don’t forget the pocket square.
C R E AT I V E C A S UA L If laid-back best describes your office dress code, pair a custom-fitted shirt or fine-gauge sweater with dark denim and city sneakers. The end result is equal parts relaxed and refined.
T R AV E L Engineered to keep wrinkles at bay, our Performance Tailoring fabric and non-iron cotton shirting ensure you’re always ready on arrival — whether your mode of transport is the subway or business class.

THE WEEKENDER The secret to being ready for anything is layering. That way, you can transition from indoors to outdoors — and back again — without skipping a beat. Let a Soft Washed flannel shirt and 5-pocket pants be your base, then add a cardigan and reversible vest as temperatures dictate.
Being off-duty doesn’t give you license to look sloppy. Fit in your casual clothing is just as important as your workday wardrobe. R O B E R T M I L A M , C R E AT I V E D I R E C TO R
FALL 2016 KEY LOOKS
FORMAL B L AC K T I E W E D D I N G Whether you’re the groom, father-of-the-bride, or a guest, a black or midnight navy tuxedo helps you rise to the occasion. Your bow tie should match the satin or grosgrain trim on your lapel; a pleated-front or Marcela formal shirt completes the picture. And remember that fall weddings tend to be more formal than summer.
B L AC K T I E E V E N T A dinner jacket has all the panache of a tuxedo, especially if you opt for midnight blue over black, which gives it a richer hue under low or artificial lights. A shawl collar — originally influenced by the smoking jacket — conveys a softer image than the angular peaked lapel. It also looks good when paired with a modern placket-front formal shirt.
SEMI-FORMAL When the invite reads black tie alternative/creative, this is an opportunity to think outside the box. Opt for fabrications such as velvet, jacquard, or flannel and ignore all bow tie dogma. We like the look of a regular tie… or none at all.
