Suits" and "caps" will be in fashion this fall!

In the past few years, dress styles have become more casual, and all kinds of outfits have been accepted. In particular, the suit style with “sneakers” and “T-shirts” has become the standard. Even in the business world, wearing sneakers with a suit to work has been accepted, increasing the freedom of dressing. And this year, the “cap” style is finally beginning to attract attention.

What are the three points in common between the latest “suit” and “cap” styles?

Pitti Uomo, the Italian men’s fashion fair, is known as the place where experts in suit dressing gather. Up until a few years ago, it was commonplace to attend Pitti Uomo in a formal dress style, with a well-groomed hairdo, a high-quality tailored suit, a tied-up shirt, and well-cared-for genuine leather shoes. However, in the past few years, as all kinds of mixed outfits have begun to be accepted, the degree of freedom in suit dressing has increased, and the number of fashionable people who wear suits in a casual manner has been increasing. Fashionable suit outfits with sneakers on the feet and T-shirts as innerwear have become common, and at the most recent Pitti fashion show, suits with caps were seen in abundance.

The suit and cap look itself has been recognized for several years, but I personally felt that there were many outfits where the taste of the suit and cap were too far apart, and I thought, “It’s fine to wear it as cosplay at events, but it’s difficult to refer to it as street wear.” However, the ” suit ” and ” cap ” look that I saw at the most recent Pitti show was different. The combination of suit and cap is natural, unified, stylish, and cool! Considering the trend in 2023, where beautiful coordination is gradually gaining attention from street style, this style has a great potential to attract a lot of attention in the near future.

We, the editors of OTOKOMAE, have compiled snaps of stylish “suit” x “cap” outfits and discovered three points that are common to stylish people.

Point 1: “Keep the coordinate to three colors or less!

It is known as a basic fashion principle to limit the number of colors in a coordinate. While this is a matter of course, it is also important in the “suit” × “cap” look. By having the cap, suit, innerwear, and shoes all share a common color, a sense of unity is created and a sophisticated atmosphere is created.

Most of the coordination that I personally think is stylish was based on the basic suit colors of navy, gray, black, brown, and khaki (olive green), with the entire outfit in three colors or less. Advanced wearers may dare to add a splash of color to their caps and sneakers, as in the snap below.

Point 2: “A moderately loose fit

Since the cap coordinate gives a sporty impression, the trick is to wear a suit with a moderately loose fit that is easy to move around in to keep the overall look balanced. A slightly oversized suit that is less than loose-fitting is the target.

I think caps go well with Italian suits, which are lightweight with minimal interlining, and American sack suits, which have a boxy silhouette. I have the impression that English tailored suits, which have a sense of construction like armor, are likely to be bothered by a sense of tininess in taste when it comes to matching caps.

If you can’t find a suit that fits you, consider ordering one from Azabu Tailor orUniversal Language, etc. It is also recommended to find your ideal snap at OTOKOMAE and consult with the staff while showing it to them. What happens if I order a suit that matches my sneakers? on YOUTUBE, so please take a look at it for reference!

Point 3: “Caps look cool worn deep in the front!

When wearing a cap with a suit outfit, it is recommended to wear a cap with a deep front. The style that hides your eyes when you lightly turn your head back creates a cool and stoic atmosphere.

Baseball caps could be seen with both 6 and 5 panels together. Also, if you interpret classic feeling as old and nostalgic style, I think it is also possible to dare to take in a flange-bent cap with a washed-out vintage look. I personally feel that this type of cap goes well with a soft, hand-stitched, tailored suit.
