How Should a Men’s Seersucker Suit Fit?
Perci’s Seersucker Jackets are built a little different. There’s no point designing suits with such a premium fabric if they’re not going to fit like a dream, so we’ve taken extra care to make sure ours fit like the best dream you ever had. The secret is to put a little extra room in the body and sleeve width. Not only does it allow more freedom of movement and comfort, but also gives you the broad shoulders and chest that you had for ten minutes when you joined the gym last January. The trousers are tailored to taper slightly, giving a sleek silhouette.
How to Style a Seersucker Suit
You’ve made an extremely correct decision in getting yourself a seersucker suit, now you just need to decide what to wear with it. No stress, brother, we’ve got that all figured out for you. In terms of shirts, your smart casual pick is a Knitted Polo—can’t go wrong, goes with everything. For a smarter option, go for a Cuban Collar Shirt or an even smarter classic Poplin White Shirt. In terms of shoes, we’re going for loafers. Go for a clean look with a pair of Sebagos, or, alternatively, these Solovair Tassel Loafers are proper bobby dazzlers.
Why is it Called a Seersucker Suit?
Contrary to popular belief, the term ‘seersucker’ does not originate from the vicious rumour that the person who created it was romantically involved with a fortune teller, but from the Persian words ‘shir-o-shakhar’, which means ‘milk & sugar’. Think about the texture—smooth yet puckered and crinkled, like sugar in milk. Poetic, really.
