After a decade, a client returns to De Oost to commission his dream wedding suit. His vision? A stylish, timeless suit that not only shines on his wedding day but also takes a versatile place in his wardrobe for years to come. Together, we chose subtle, understated tones in natural fabrics, complemented by a vibrant waistcoat to bring the ensemble to life.
The Suit: Timeless Quality and Fine Details
The jacket and trousers are classic in design, showcasing precision in fit and refined finishing that true connoisseurs of quality will appreciate. The color ‘Oatmeal’ was selected for its calming, natural tone, offering a sophisticated contrast with the waistcoat. This light palette achieves a stylish, serene look—perfect for the wedding and elegant enough for other occasions.
Jacket Details
• Model: Two-button with a handmade full-canvas construction, ensuring optimal fit and lightweight comfort.
• Buttons: Textured buttons with a subtle greenish undertone, adding a touch of color.
• Pockets and Lapels: Two straight jetted pockets, a chest pocket, and 9 cm-wide notch lapels.
• Lining: Silk with a fine block motif in a coordinating color, beautifully finished inside and out.
Waistcoat Details
The waistcoat follows a classic, single-breasted five-button design with two front pockets, enhancing the suit’s calm look. This classic waistcoat provides a hint of contrast in color and texture, elevating the natural tones of the jacket.
Trousers
The trousers follow the classic line of the jacket and offer the same understated elegance, with the freedom to be worn separately after the wedding.
The Fabrics: Luxurious Wool and Tweed from Great Britain
For this suit, we chose fabrics that stand out in quality, texture, and subtle aesthetic.
Jacket and Trousers: Classic Worsted Flannel in ‘Oatmeal,’ 100% S140’s wool, of the highest quality and 280 grams per square meter. This worsted flannel has the warmth and comfort typical of flannel, with a fine, less hairy finish thanks to the combing process. The result is a soft, lightweight fabric that’s both durable and crease-resistant—ideal for autumn and winter wear.
Waistcoat: Moorland Tweed in a fawn/gold mix with a fine pearl check, 430 grams per square meter. Inspired by the Scottish landscape, this fabric offers a rich palette that reflects the depth and complexity of nature. Woven from 100% pure wool, this tweed brings warmth and comfort, along with a touch of Scottish Highland heritage to the big day.
A Harmonious Blend of Color and Style for a Wedding Suit that Inspires
This wedding suit demonstrates how natural colors can combine to create a refined, timeless ensemble. The understated ‘Oatmeal’ tone of the suit exudes quiet quality, while the vibrant waistcoat acts as an accent, bringing unique flair to the look. Crafted to make an impression on the big day and beyond, this suit is a testament to craftsmanship, material selection, and the power of subtle details.
