DO'S AND DON'TS: BUSINESSWEAR IN SUMMER

Summer is (hopefully) coming and with it comes the struggle:
We want to look professional, yet also want to be able to somehow manage the heat in style and not sweat in our business outfits. 

DO'S

  • Opt for Light Fabrics: Choose breathable, lightweight fabrics like cotton, linen, and chambray.
  • Stick to Light Colors: Wear lighter shades like white, beige, pastels, and light grays, which reflect sunlight and keep you cooler.
  • Dress in Layers: Layering with a light cardigan or blazer allows you to adjust to indoor air conditioning and outdoor heat.
  • Choose Short Sleeves: Short-sleeved shirts and blouses can be professional while keeping you cool.
  • Go for Breathable Footwear: Wear shoes made of breathable materials like leather or canvas.

    Summer Businesswear Inspiration #1:

    Create a stylish outfit by layering your look with airy shoes and opting for a loose, relaxed fit. Our VIADUKT WORK 24 in Sandstone matches summery business looks perfectly!

    Summer Businesswear Inspiration #2:

    Choose a light fabric like cotton with short sleeves for a comfortable and breezy outfit. The SEEFELD MINI is the perfect addition!

    Summer Businesswear Inspiration #3:

    Opt for light colors and fabrics like cotton and linen with an airy fit that isn't too tight for a fresh, comfortable look. Opt for the CENTRAL in Greige as a light-colored companion.

    DON'TS

    • Avoid Heavy Fabrics: Steer clear of heavy materials like wool, thick polyester, and denim, which can trap heat and cause discomfort.
    • Say No to Dark Colors: Dark colors like black, navy, and dark brown absorb more heat and can make you feel hotter.
    • Avoid Tight Clothing: Tight-fitting clothes can restrict airflow and increase sweating. Opt for looser, more relaxed fits.
    • Stay Away from Synthetic Fabrics: Synthetic fabrics like polyester and nylon can be less breathable and trap heat and moisture.

      Avoid pants that are too short or too casual and bags that are too small to carry your everyday essentials. Those, like our HELVETIA, are AMAZING for your leisure time!

      As you step into summer, embrace light fabrics and airy fits for ultimate comfort and style, and enjoy the warmth and longer days.
