I am totally in love with linen, from jacket to underwear - everything in linen. It really pays off in the summer. For those of you who don't like how linen wrinkles, I'd suggest you to get atleast a linen shirt, because it won't be visible under the suit. As always, a quality video!
I have been watching Gentleman's Gazette for about four month's and your color palette in this vid is outstanding, light green Jacket white shirt and peach bowtie, Thank you for expanding my envelope so the Hunt for right Peach tie is on.
downton abbey fan here..was delighted to see the pic/still, would love it if Sven would show a few more stills from the show and explain all the clothing they wore in the show like the porter and headman and butler's dresses...

While I appreciate this guidance on warm weather men's fashion, and the looks that you've shown off make you look far dapper than I, unfortunately, I just can't see myself wearing arm and leg covering or a jacket like that at all and I've pretty much relegated my summer wardrobe (in hot weather) to some nice looking shorts and some nice button-down tastefully-patterned short-sleeved shirts with the exception of special occasions in which case, I try to only wear a full summer suit as little as I can get away with (a few hours at a time). Don't get me wrong, I understand the fashion faux pas of comparing such a look with a summer suit, but I have not yet found a summer suit that can rival the necessary comfort in the summer heat in the outdoors. Are there any extreme-temperature wardrobe choices that I may have overlooked to improve my look? I certainly appreciate the guidance. thank you!
If you like, you could always forgo the jacket, and just wear a waistcoat, short shleeve button-up, and some nice pants. I'd recommend a bowtie with this look as-well, and you might actually be able to get away with a skimmer, or if you prefer you could wear a panama hat. For shoes just stay away from leather, really. If you'd rather something else in place of a bowtie you could also go with a string tie, although I'm not sure of the fashion relevance of those at the moment, however they look dapper nonetheless.
understandable, here's a few humble suggestions 1) ditch the jacket (leave it in your car if you're outdoor) , and go with just the vest , maybe choose something in a light tone such as white, pink,green,blue etc 2) look out for quality polo shirts 3) replace your shoes with something without lace , i.e a loafer or boat shoe
One exception from preferring single breasted jackets in the summer: I think a lightweight half-lined dinner jacket for summer should be double breasted. Only this style allows a gentleman to skip the waistcoat or cummerbund and I guess the overlapping fabric in the front adds less heat than even a backless waistcoat or a cummerbund. By the way... if one wants to opt for a white (!) dinner jacket in the peak of summer or in the south just remember "Casablanca"... yes, there is something like a great looking DB white dinner jacket!
Where i live the area is not just hot its very humid, sometimes adding 15 - 20° F to the 90+ temperature. Is there a video for humid hot environment clothing ideas.
It is a great advice for people who do not have a clue about what to wear. However for people with experience, more real world examples, such as actual combinations and dress ideas, would be much more appreciated.
I have a stupid question regarding a tab collar shirt. I've never owned one, but recently bought one, that hasn't arrived, my question is, do you fasten the tab first, then tie your necktie knot, or do you tie a loose necktie knot, then fasten the tab, and then make a final tighten of your tie? Thank you!
Alright, in Australia it's 40 degrees here.... So how should I style? I heard that it's no proper wearing a short sleeves shirt with blazer or suit. And suit with short is a no to me...
Porthos So I'm in Oz too, I go linen all the way, if you have to wear a suit go light colours and unstructured. I'd usually go for white linen shirt and barley coloured suit. The thing so many Aussie do wrong is wearing dark colours in summer, it's too damn hot, light colours all the bloody way.
It's a problem mate, not many UA-cam advisors actually live in a climate as hit as ours and so they don't really understand. Having said that the excellent tutorial here does make most of the salient points: stick to light colours, go for unlined jackets with relatively open-weave fabrics and test out the clothes against sunlight or breezes to verify. I totally agree with Jared C who likes linen, that's the way to go but there are other options depending on how much time/money/effort you put into your wardrobe. I'd add go for the no-socks option to reduce heat. Give your shoes as best aftercare as you can and simply ditch them when they start to smell bad. With respect to under blazer wear, go for the lightest fabric you can and sleeveless where possible. Think Sonny Crockett. Lastly, soak it up; we live in a hot place and looking good is a battle on hot days when you want to be well dressed.
Wearing a ribbed T-shirt or sleeveless shirt helps too esp. when you're gonna sweat a lot. I even tried wearing one in the gym and it took quite a while for me to actually "feel" sweaty. As for decreasing sweat production, I didn't do it scientifically so I'm not quite sure how much better it is at that. But it "felt" like it , if that helps. Oh I live in the Philippines btw so it's hot AND humid.
I love men in linen! I am not sure if I like men (on a casual occasion) with a suit. They look HOT and that annoys me. I want them to look nice but not HOT in a suit. Maybe a simple blazer he can take off. I have to ponder this some more.

Same...I try to wear linen at every chance I get in the summer. The wrinkles are so characteristic and nice compared to other fabrics
I agree I live in Texas, enough said
If only I had known this when I growing up in the American south.
Gohan Tanaka thank god you are not from the Middle East it’s a piping hot oven
@@omaral7uzaim945 Might be,but it's also drier.

I stay in hot and humid Singapore and this video helps a lot for my daily office outfit.
Man, would I like to take a peak into your closet ... ^^ I'm guessing even whole stores have less awesome stuff than you do.
I know. His wardrobe seems incredibly extensive. Just pure passion.
overTIMe walk into any thrift store and you’ll see his wardrobe.
Coming Soon!
Surprised at the lack of subscribers, a great classical modern style channel

Those vintage pieces from Season 1 got its warehouse burned.
Unbelievable how little recognition you get for the quality of your videos. I'm glad to see your website is very well regarded though

Be careful with light-weight pants. They can easily look like Pijamas.
If they fit well that will not be a problem
Also, your username is killer!
+The Split Spade
Thats true.
Thanks yours is really nice too. Is there a tale about a split spade?
It's a deck of playing cards influenced by a very skilled magician named David Blaine.
UrbanDanger ! Pyjama are really comfy ;-)
I really liked that jacket and bow tie combination!!
Knocked it out of the park. Superb work!

Floral shirts are my goto in high summer.
I live in the Palm Springs, CA area, good suggestions!
Just great, as always.
Second video and subbed. You've Sir, have a gift. Thank you.
Really looking forward to mens summer shoes, great video.

Thanks!
Where can I find a fresco suit that can be MTM or bespoke? I have an athletic build so off the rack is a no go for me

I really enjoy your videos Raphael! I am curious though; do you always wear a suit?
Very helpful.
bravo
Can you provide online stores which sell fresco
We have temperatures over 40 degrees celcius. Whould you wear jakets?
I think it can be replaced by a waiscost and still be formal

What about the wearing of a “guayabera” shirt instead of a suit coat in tropical climates or the Southwest of the U.S.?
How about renaissance-shirts and robes (like the one on my profile pic)? I bet they would be comfy and guarantee that all eyes are on you!
you should make a video on guayaberas!
Heinrich Strohwitwer waiting for it too.

I’m wondering if that bow tie is self tied. It doesn’t look perfect like the clip on. 😀
What is the best thing to wear in a 30-45°C summer?
wut do when i only have a navy suit :'(
can't buy a new one . .
This guy reminds me of boyle from brooklyn 99
El problema es que algunas son muy livianas, te dejan respirar pero no te protegen de los rayos del sol
What colours would you advise for a summer suit to be office-appropriate?
Khaki brown blue
So what ever happened to the summer shoes video?

He's from germany.

We have put captions on this video. I meant to say, "Once you've decided on an airy fabric.." :)
Where’s your accent from ?
He was born in Germany but spent some of his youth in Brazil.
Your voice is too soft at times and makes it difficult to understand what you are saying
You didn't shave this time, buuuuu
DX100HHH I disagree. I think he should keep going. Evoking Gomez Addams is probably his look.
this guy is boooooooooooooooooooring.........
