1. Guide to Summer Clothing

2. What to wear this
summer.
With summer poking its head out
now and again, Barrington Ayre
Shirtmaker & Tailor have put
together an essential guide to what
to have in your wardrobe for the
warmer months

3. The Summer Suit
The one pictured (photo courtesy of
Scabal) is a stunning lightweight
fabric and one of our favourites for
summer wear.
The fabrics from the Condor range
are a selection of cool wools,
weighing in at 260g. The airy plain
weave construction and fresh
handle helps you to feel
comfortable in summer whilst
holding its shape and not creasing.
There is a huge range of these
fabrics to choose from, ranging
from plain designs to something
with a little more flair.
A must for every summer wardrobe.

4. This is a personal favourite look and allows you to look sharp
and smart whilst adding a bit more flair to your look. Pick a
classic pair of plain lightweight wool or cotton trousers and
add a jacket that is patterned. You can then dress it up with a
tie or go open collared or add a sea island cotton polo shirt.
The Jacket & Trousers

5. Tailored Shorts
Something that most men struggle
with but there really is no reason
to.
Always go tailored and just above
the knee. Stick with plain colours
or a simple seersucker and pair
with shirts, polos and T shirts. Add
a jacket for a smarter look

6. Lightweight cotton or linen shirts are perfect for summer
months.
In regard to polo shirts, go sea island cotton, Think
Daniel Craig in James Bond, and look at John Smedley,
Sunspot or Orlebar Brown
Shirts & Polos

7. Boating Blazer
One for the more adventurous.
With a huge range of different
striped fabrics to choose from
these are a great summer jacket.
Whether you are simply after one
for Henley, the polo or summer
drinks party or for a fashion
statement these really are a great
addition to every wardrobe.

8. Choice
There is obviously a huge variety
of summer clothing available. This
is just a selection of what we
believe every man should have in
their wardrobe to be prepared for
any occasion.
