What Should You Wear to Graduation?
You’ve just dedicated several years of your life to your chosen field of study, and it all comes down to this. Your graduation is a celebration of all that hard work and a chance for a bunch of other people to recognise how class you are. Any photographs taken today will hang on the wall forever, so you’d better be wearing something that makes you look wall-worthy.
Graduation Outfits for Male Graduates
So, you need to go formal—that’s pretty much a given—but dressing formally doesn’t mean you have to wear the same boring outfit as everybody else. Chances are you’re going to be wearing a big black gown over whatever you choose to wear anyway, so use this opportunity to work a splash of colour into the fit. Our Linen Suits come in 7 (SEVEN) different colours. Just saying.
What to Wear Under the Gown?
Definitely wear something under the gown. You only make that mistake once. At some point that gown is coming off—it’s a rental—and that is the time for your fit to truly shine. You know what? It might be time for the Double Breasted Suit Jacket.

Graduation Style for Guests & Parents
This is potentially one of the most memorable days of your loved one’s life, you need to dress well without stealing the limelight from the graduate—this is their day.
What to Wear as a Guest at Graduation?
Go for smart, elegant simplicity with a Two-Piece Suit. Three pieces is too many pieces if it’s not your graduation. Similar vibe to a wedding, to be honest. You won’t go far wrong with a Wedding Suit.

Graduation Outfits by Season
Not all graduations are in the summer. If you’re in the market for a graduation suit for a specific season, we got you.
Summer Graduation Style
Men’s summer graduation suits are all about Linen and Seersucker. They’ll keep you cool under that big old gown and cap so you’re not sweating buckets whilst receiving your little blank piece of paper with the ribbon tied round it.
Winter Graduation Outfits
For a winter graduation you can go a little more robust. Might we suggest a Herringbone Tailored Double-Breasted ensemble? Or a Wool Tailored Blazer? These are the kind of wintry vibes you should be aiming for.

Accessories to Complete the Look
Your suit is your solid defence, accessories are your flair wingers and your number 10 that provide the magic.
Shoes, Ties & Hats
If you class Shoes as an accessory, then they are the most important accessory of all—choose a pair that match your fit. Ties and Hats can bring a look together but make sure they’re graduation-appropriate, especially your hat. Don’t ruin a smart suit with a beanie, for the love of all that is good in this world.
Graduation Gift Ideas for Men
A nice Tie is something he’ll use forever. Alternatively, give your graduate the choice of whatever takes his fancy in the Perci store with a Gift Card—just because it’s easy doesn’t mean it can’t be a brilliant gift.
