A new suit can be a costly investment, especially a made-to-measure one. Learn how season, durability and comfort should guide your choice of suit fabric.

SEASON

Although some suits can be worn all year, it is best to wear them in certain seasons. If you are looking for a suit to wear in the warmer months of the year, consider linen. A lightweight linen suit will not leave you sweltering on a hot summer day. On the other hand, a suit in flannel will keep you warm on colder days because of its thick material. If you need a suit for the mild months of spring and autumn, you might be interested in a cotton suit; cotton absorbs sweat and is very suitable for warmer days. MON AMIE also tailors made-to-order suits in different wool weights, including super-light wool. Depending on the season, choose the most suitable fabric.

DURABILITY

In terms of durability, two fabrics stand out: wool and cotton. A wool suit tends to last longer than other kinds of suits, so it does not need to be replaced often. Cotton is also beneficial when it comes to lifespan, and has the advantage of being machine-washable. Other suit fabrics are less favored because they deteriorate or begin to fray.

COMFORT

Wool and cotton are also optimal for comfort. Wool and cotton suits are flexible and comfortable, and they absorb moisture and sweat. Wool suits can be worn comfortably all year round, and cotton suits are recommended for all seasons except winter.
