TOP 5 WEDDING LOOKS FOR MEN | SUMMER '21

 We all know that Spring is wedding season all

 throughout Africa. When September starts so do the

 wedding festivities. Although this year looks a 

bit different logistically that doesn't change 

anything fashion wise.


1. Suit and shorts





There is no other way to explain how much
 we love this look. Not many can pull this look 
off but those that try somehow 
tend to make it work for them.

Recommends:
Play around with colours to don't be shy 
but make sure its colours you can still 
incorporate with other items. When
 it comes to the shorts, chinos also work 
so don't count them out.

disappoint at the 2014 Oscars.

2. Linen




Well-known to be a hit for beach weddings,

linen is a great choice during the scorching summer 

wedding season. Its light weight material 

makes it breathable and super comfortable to

make it through any wedding. 

Recommends:

Beige, White, Navy and Light Blue

Ballin on a budget: AliExpress for R808.99 

Moderate spending: Woolworths for R 2999

High end: Tagilatore for $518

Who can ever forget Tinie Tempah's 

flamboyant era of suit selections?

 We definitely remember this linen look classic! 


3. Matching two-piece





It goes without saying that not everyone can pull 

this look off. Same colour coordination can 

sometimes come across as boring or too much if 

done incorrectly especially if there isn't anything

 breaking the colour such as a print or another colour.

Recommends:

For affordable two-piece suits check out

  Markhams

Common definitely came
 through with this look what do you think?


4. Semi-Formal



We can all agree that the strict dress code 

that once existed at weddings has

 somehow fizzled as the years went by. We are now

graced with more semi-casual looks that take

 the pressure off trying to find the appropriate 

wear for such an occasion. A statement blazer

 is never a bad start with this look.

Recommends

For amazing signature

 blazers you cant go wrong with

Rosey Vittori Tie dye blazer R945

Twisted Tailor  Floral Jaquard blazer R3034

Celeb Inspired:

Childish Gambino definitely served this look 

without question. The statement blazer 

to compliment the simple finishing touch to

 his overall look.

vibes but added the blazer and signature hat

to complete this simple yet semi-formal look.


5. African Print wear




I hope you do know that African print

 is not just for traditional weddings right? If you

do great we glad that's clear and out the way.
