Hey, How Do I Wear… The Big, Bold Suit?

1 WHY IT WORKS

Wildly patterned suits may scream ’50s car salesmen and ageing rockers, but ever since designers like Balmain and Emporio Armani sent sharply tailored versions down the catwalk, they’ve won over both A-listers and the high street. Worried people will point and laugh? They won’t if you stick to a strict colour palette of no more than three shades, and sharp-as-hell tailoring.
