Women's Tweed Suit Tips
When thinking about Tweed Suits, for some people Old English clubs and traditional schools may come to their minds. Elbow with leather patch and bow ties. Today, a tweed suit, especially on women, is much more than that. Unfinished wool feels luxurious, those typical bold colors, the traditional brown, gray or green mixed with fine details combine all of it to create a very special Woman's Business Suit.
A tweed suit is considered a traditional garment when it's combined with an A-line skirt and a matching jacket. However, as we stated above, tweed suits can be more than that: pantsuits and contrasting blazers are the trends these days. Even you can go for wide-leg pants, as they are suitable for any body type, and tweed is warm enough to wear in any cold weather.
Combine any tweed suit with a neck scarf or a wool scarf, a bold contrasting purse. Go full tweed for your suit with Sumissura, as us personal advice whenever you want about the differences in the available fabrics.
