A perfectly tailored suit is appropriate year-round—it’s the fabric that’s seasonal. While heavy wools and tweed jackets look fantastic in the winter, they’re nothing short of suffocating in the warmer months. For spring and summer, opt for lightweight layers that you can wear inside and out, during the day and at night. The key to not sweating is all in the material (and the color; think lighter and brighter). Here’s what to look for.
Topman
Skinny Fit Suit
If you feel like flexing a bit, this soft pink shade is a very summery way to do it.
SHOP $280, topman.com
Suitsupply
Lazio Brown Check Suit
If you can’t make it to Havana, you can at least dress like it. The light brown check is interesting without overwhelming the easygoing fit and fabric.

Bonobos
Jetsetter Cotton Suit
A brighter blue for brighter days. Wear this one to the office or an outdoor party on the weekend.
SHOP $500, bonobos.com
Hugo Boss
Slim Fit Stretch Cotton Seersucker Suit
Although that famous blue-and-white stripe is often considered synonymous with the word “seersucker,” it actually refers to the puckered fabric, not the print. Hugo Boss’s blue-gray pick is a sleeker alternative.

Boglioli
Garment-Dyed Cotton Twill Suit
Cotton twill is another cool fabric to look for. The unstructured construction is super casual—feel free to wear it with a white T-shirt and minimalist sneakers.

Dolce & Gabbana
Gabbana Gold Fit Stretch Wool Suit
The classic navy suit is a true workhorse. It just so happens that D&G’s version is a thoroughbred.
