Office Outfit Inspiration
Office Wear Suits: The Everyday Classic
We still believe a well-cut suit is the cornerstone of office wear. When we reach for a suit on busy days, it’s because nothing matches the effortless sophistication: jacket on, shirt tucked, shoes polished - done.
The right cut makes all the difference, so we design with movement in mind. If you favour a clean silhouette, our slimmer cuts sharpen the shoulders and streamline the leg.
Prefer a touch more room? Relaxed fits give you space through the chest and thigh without looking boxy. If your day involves trains, meetings and miles on foot, a suit that moves with you earns its place.
Fabric matters just as much. We love linen suits for warmer months and lively commutes. They breathe and feel easy from desk to dinner.
Colour-wise, navy and grey are the year-round heroes, while more colourful suits are your summer go-to: clean, modern and surprisingly versatile with white, blue or printed shirts.
As the season shifts, think richer tones. Charcoal, chocolate, or a hint of burgundy all add depth without shouting.
We build our tailoring for everyday durability: reliable seams, considered linings, and fabrics chosen to wear well. And for the days you want the suit effect without full formality, our smart casual blazers keep the structure soft and the look smart.
Smart Casual for Work: Balancing Formal and Relaxed
When we say smart casual, we mean the sweet spot: professional enough for a client catch-up, relaxed enough for creative sessions and hybrid days. Think blazer, oxford shirt, and chinos. Or simply a great formal shirt with tailored trousers and clean loafers. We love how a well-chosen jacket lifts even the simplest base: if a meeting pops into the diary, add a complementary tie and you’re instantly “meeting-ready”.
Every office interprets smart casual differently. Some lean closer to traditional office wear; others are more relaxed. Our approach is to keep the silhouette tailored and the fabrics elevated so the look never slips into “too casual”.
Add texture (knit ties, brushed cotton, soft shoulders) and keep your colour palette tight. That way every piece talks to the rest of your wardrobe.
Casual Office Wear: Comfort Without Compromise
Some days call for comfort first. Casual office wear for men should still feel considered, so we build in polish even when the brief is relaxed.
Try swapping the shirt for a polo shirt and pairing with olive chinos for the ultimate casual office wear outfit.
Five easy outfit ideas we wear on repeat

Building a versatile officewear wardrobe
When planning a working wardrobe, start with repeatable combinations and build from there.
Two suits (navy and grey), four to five shirts (white, blue, stripes, and checks), a couple of ties, and shoes in black or brown will cover nearly every workplace.
If you’re presenting, travelling, or constantly up and down, a suit with a touch more ease in the chest and thigh keeps you comfortable without giving up clean lines. If you prefer a sharper silhouette, a closer cut does the job. Just keep the shoulders neat and the sleeve length on point.
Choose your fabrics with the workday in mind:
- High quality wool suits with durability, softness, and breathability
- 100% cotton twill, oxford, or poplin shirts with wrinkle resistance.
- Breathable merino wool for layering.
Quality fabrics elevate casual office wear for men and keep mens office wear suits looking fresher for longer. That’s how you build a rotation you can rely on.
