WRITTEN BY KATERYNA LAKOMOVA
Bold and elevated tailored pieces are taking center stage in men's suit trends 2025. It's all about making a statement—whether through vibrant colors, luxurious textures, or sleek tonal outfits.

Are you ready to dive into the hottest tailoring trends and must-have trending suits for men this year? Let's explore!
How to Style a Suit
The traditional uniform of office workers, which has seen little change since the 18th century, can often feel like a restrictive straitjacket on personal expression. However, it doesn't have to remain that way. While the styles of suits we commonly see may appear outdated, designers continuously experiment with silhouettes and styles in their collections to breathe new life into this classic attire.
Below, we present eight modern ways how to style a men's suit that highlight the latest trending fits. Let's update your tailoring for the 21st century and move beyond the constraints of the past.
And if you're curious about how should a men's suit fit, check out our fit guide and put any doubts to rest!
Monochrome
One of the hottest trends this year is monochrome and tonal dressing, where your blazer and trousers—even your shirt and tie—are all the same color or feature subtle variations of the same hue. This approach offers a sleek and ultra-modern aesthetic, especially when using neutral colors in men's fashion.
For this trend, black suit styles with a tailored suit fit really stand out. Take a look at this stylish ensemble from Tiger of Sweden, featuring the Wool Blazer paired with the Straight-leg Wool Trousers, both in chic black. Add a black polo or shirt underneath for tonal dressing, and complete the look with a pair of black dress shoes.

Mismatch
Mix and match—pair a tailored jacket with complementary yet distinct tailored trousers. It requires a bit of skill to pull these elements together—stick to classic colors and add interesting accessories. The result is a polished look without the rigidity of traditional suits, making it far more enjoyable than simply donning a standard suit. A key takeaway: invest in quality suit jackets.
We delved into brown suit combos for this styling approach, focusing on mismatched elements since that's where the trend lies. For instance, consider the Casual wool-blend blazer paired with Straight-fit trousers. The classy pattern of the jacket beautifully complements the rich brown hue of the trousers.
Wide Leg
Time to shift our focus to broader suit types, particularly through the chest, across the shoulders, and through the trousers, which feature a looser, wider leg. Move away from the tight-fitting suits that often made men look like they'd been shrunk in a hot wash. Fortunately, the tide has turned, and we now have access to more comfortable and stylish types of suit cuts.
Holzweiler showcases this trending tailored suit fit in their collection with a pair of Wide-leg wool trousers that exemplify the fashion-forward wide-leg design. To complete the ensemble, we paired these trousers with the Casual blazer, which comes in a striking golden copper hue. This modern suit style cleverly merges two key trends: mismatching and wide cuts.
With Accessories
A great way to inject some fun into modern tailoring is through accessories. Brooches, lapel chains, and neck scarves can instantly elevate a suit, even traditional styles like pinstripes. Don't hesitate to incorporate a standout cowboy belt or a striking man bag for added flair. This approach is a cost-effective way to refresh your existing suit collection.
We focus on men's grey suit ideas in this look, pairing a Slim-fit blazer with Straight-fit trousers in a green-grey shade. To enhance the silhouette, cinch the waist with a stylish Webbing belt from Les Deux, and carry a Briefcase for your laptop to blend functionality with fashion-forward flair.

Unstructured
These should be two-piece ensembles in casual suit style—dapper but softer, stretchier, and more relaxed than any traditional suit you've tried before. These garments might feature elasticated waistbands and could be both stain-resistant and wrinkle-free. Some modern types of suits even allow for machine washing.
In our styling, we focused on the men's trending blazer—a Casual wool jacket with a timeless check pattern. We paired it with the Mellange suit trousers from Les Deux, which perfectly blend comfort and tailored elegance.
With Denim
Denim and a jacket: traditional tailors might balk at the idea of this pairing being considered serious tailoring, yet it's becoming increasingly common after years of style stagnation. The secret to pulling off this look is to toss traditionalism out the window. Instead, embrace unexpected combinations or lean into the relaxed, baggy silhouettes reminiscent of the 90s.
We combined a creamy Linen blazer with light blue Tapered jeans for this outfit. This stylish pairing balances a trending blazer with denim, making it an excellent choice for warm-weather seasons.
Linen
There are a few important factors to remember when choosing linen men's suit styles. First, a great linen suit should be tailored to fit your body well, balancing comfort with style—no one wants to feel restricted, right? Additionally, your linen suit should be versatile enough to shine at formal events, summer weddings, or whenever you want to exude relaxed sophistication.
We're drawn to fashionable colors like beige and green for linen tailoring. For instance, pair a Linen blazer with Linen casual trousers in a stylish artichoke green—a trendy choice for summer outings.

Shorts Cut
Tailored shorts paired with a jacket used to be a common way to keep things formal in warmer climates. As global temperatures rise, menswear designers are looking to revive this stylish option: we've spotted these trendy types of suits on numerous S/S runways over the past couple of years. These men's suit ideas are a daring choice, best suited for looser fits and lighter fabrics. T-shirts or tucked-in shirts can complement the jacket nicely, while for footwear, many stylists opt for loafers and pulled-up socks.
We teamed the Slim-fit blazer with matching Tailored jersey shorts from Aeronautica Militare. The neutral grey of this combination allows for vibrant accessories to shine, whether it's a bright shirt underneath or a pair of eye-catching sandals.
Wear Your Suit Right
Now, let's ensure you wear your men's suit outfits correctly! There are some insider tips on how to style a suit that not everyone knows about:
- Bottom button of a suit jacket: In single-breasted style, it should be open, always. In double-breasted—closed.
- Unbutton the jacket when you sit down: Stay comfortable and prevent any buttons from popping during your event.
- Shirt cuffs: Shirt sleeves play a crucial role in creating a polished and sharp appearance. Ensure they fit well and are the right length. Ideally, about a quarter of an inch of your shirt cuff should be visible beneath your jacket sleeve.
- Don't choke yourself: A shirt's collar is important for your overall comfort and appearance; it should never feel constricting. Place two fingers between your neck and the collar to ensure a proper fit. This will help you gauge if it's snug yet comfortable. Additionally, keep in mind that shirts can sometimes shrink after washing.
- Jacket fit: The jacket should be tailored to fit comfortably—not too loose or tight around the chest. A tip is to place three fingers perpendicularly between your jacket and stomach—you should be able to slide your hand between your buttoned jacket and your chest.
- Tie length: Your tie should rest at your belt buckle—not too short and not trailing too long.
- Accessories: Choose one or two standout pieces—a watch, a lapel pin, or some cufflinks—to maintain an elegant and classy look.
- Belt and shoes: A frequently neglected guideline is that your belt and shoes should match in color. Aim for black with black and brown with brown to achieve a coordinated appearance.
- Confidence: Regardless of how perfectly tailored your suit may be, confidence is the most powerful accessory you can don. Stand tall, embrace your style, and leave a remarkable impression wherever you go.
