Tiger of Sweden Autumn/Winter 2017 collection

"Personally, I wear a suit most days. I notice the DIFFERENCE IN MY ATTITUDE. Putting on a suit makes me feel a little more focused and sharp. A lot of the guys who wear Tiger of Sweden are the same. They don’t work at investment banks. It’s not about feeling like you’ve got something to prove – they just enjoy wearing a suit. The younger generation is wearing it differently, more casual. I like the SNEAKER-AND-SUIT COMBINATION myself, and often wear a suit with a T-shirt. For this collection, I looked at traditional British tailoring for a slightly SHARPER, CLEANER CUT than Tiger of Sweden has done in the past. And it needed to feel good on. I wanted to get the trousers as comfortable as pyjamas.", ANDREAS GRAN, HEAD OF DESIGN, MENSWEAR

How does the 21st-century man wear a suit? What makes the suit relevant today? Those were weighty questions preoccupying Andreas Gran this season. The result is a collection of impeccably cut suits that combine British tailoring tradition with a relaxed contemporary approach to styling. Inspired by British tailoring, Andreas toyed with the cut, creating a new silhouette for Autumn/Winter’s suits – with sharper shoulders, a slightly more accentuated waist and longer silhouette than in past seasons.

And it’s not just the suit that has changed. So too has the styling. Dress codes no longer require most men to wear a suit to the office. But increasingly, a new generation is embracing the suit, wanting to look good, but not in staid or conservative business way. Today, a man will wear a suit how he wants. The styling of the collection acknowledges the shift – a suit is worn with sneakers for a laidback look – leaving the tie at home.
