If you’re going to a gala this holiday season chances are it’s going to be a black tie event. Instead of opting for a traditional black tuxedo try this stunning burgundy shawl collar option as a stunning alternative. It’s a great colour-way fit for the holiday season and guaranteed to help you stand out from the crowd.

MEET THE PARENTS

You only ever get one chance to make a first impression; especially if it’s with your future in-laws. The key to pulling off a great look starts with a great blazer and we definitely recommend going jersey. Pair it with a modern microprint shirt, knitted cardigan and a great pair of trousers. This looks strikes the perfect balance between showing just enough personality while maintaining a classic timeless silhouette.

HOLIDAY PARTY WITH YOUR FRIENDS

Just because you’re hanging with your friends doesn’t give you the right to dress like a schmuck.

Add a splash of colour with a fun check shirt and a great pair of high-tops (weather permitting).
