Before we get started with this one, let us just say that we fully advocate owning at least one suit, even if it is just for weddings and funerals. That said, we understand that not everybody can afford to do so, and in that case, the next option is suit loan.

Forget your bad high school formal experiences, or that time you were a groomsman at your cousin (from the wrong side of the family) Joe's wedding. Here at Working Style we've taken a classic approach to suit loan. No brightly coloured vests, no bad double breasted suits in cheap fabrics where stains - literally - slide right off. Instead, we've focussed on simplicity, quality, cut and cloth.

Three styles; Cornwallis, Prince and Greene. Cornwallis is a one button shawl collar jacket with satin lapels and satin striped trousers, much like the tuxedo James Bond would have worn. Prince is a two button satin peak lapel jacket with covered buttons and plain trousers, a little less formal than Cornwallis, but still suitable for weddings. Greene is a one button notch lapel jacket that comes with a matching black waistcoat and plain trousers. All are cut from 100% premium wool. See what we said? Simple.

Wear them with a white shirt and a black, white or silver tie or bow tie (also all available for loan), and you'll be the only one who knows. And that's the way it should be.
