A destination wedding adds one challenge to the suit: it has to travel well and still look perfect on the day. Here is how to get it right.
Pick a travel-friendly fabric
High-twist wool resists wrinkles and bounces back after a flight, which makes it ideal for travel. Linen blends work for warm, casual destinations if you are comfortable with a relaxed, lived-in look. Avoid delicate, easily creased fabrics for long trips.
How to pack a suit
Turn the jacket half inside out and fold it over itself to protect the shoulders, or use a garment bag as a carry-on so it never hits the hold. Hang it in a steamy bathroom on arrival and most travel wrinkles fall out.
Fit for heat and photos
A suit built for your body photographs better and feels cooler than one that pulls or bunches. We cut for a clean line and can choose a lighter construction so you stay comfortable in a warm climate.
Plan ahead
Order early and complete your final fitting well before you leave. There is no room for last-minute alterations once you are at the destination, so we build in time to get it exactly right first.
