What makes the Contemporary Suits Range so good?

1. Freedom of Movement with Elastane

Contemporary suiting contains Elastane, which is engineered to move with your body, so you have the freedom to move naturally and work to your fullest. Elastane delivers enhanced comfort, lasting shape and a flexible fit that keeps you moving freely all day long.

2. Mobile Phone-accommodating Pockets for Valuables

In the modern world, where smartphones and other valuables have become an integral part of our everyday lives, having pockets large enough to store a mobile phone is a must. Simon Jersey’s suits have taken this into consideration by incorporating mobile phone-accommodating pockets into their designs, particularly for jackets and trousers.

These specially designed pockets are not only convenient but also help to prevent your valuables from getting damaged or lost. Additionally, you’ll find an array of other pockets throughout the suits, providing extra storage space for your belongings.

3. Minimal Ironing with Crease Guard

Contemporary Suits are all finished with Crease Guard, aka the permanent trouser crease. In short, it’s a unique, permanent crease application for your garment. Crease Guard is formulated to:

  • last the life of the garment;
  • treat creases to remain as sharp and crisp as the day they were first pressed;
  • withstand washing, dry cleaning and normal wear and tear.

4. Stain Resistance with Teflon

Accidents happen, especially when you have a busy schedule or work in a fast-paced environment.

That’s why Contemporary Suiting comes with a Teflon fabric protector. Teflon works on a variety of fabrics without interfering with weight, look, feel, colour, or breathability. This fabric protector requires less frequent washing because they’re better protected from stains.

Simon Jersey’s Contemporary suits are stain-resistant, ensuring that small spills or mishaps won’t ruin your attire. The fabric can repel stains, making them easier to clean and maintain. Whether it’s a coffee spill during a morning meeting or a small food stain during a lunch break, you can trust that your suit will remain impeccable throughout the day.

What should you look for in Contemporary suits?

1. Modern Styling

Contemporary suits are known for their stylish and trendy designs. Look for suits that offer unique details, innovative patterns, and unconventional colour choices that align with the latest fashion trends.

2. Fabric Innovation

Contemporary suits often incorporate modern fabric technologies such as stretch fabrics, wrinkle-resistant materials, and moisture-wicking properties. These features enhance comfort, mobility, and ease of maintenance.

3. Tailoring Fit

Our Contemporary suits should also provide a well-tailored fit. Look for options that offer slim or slim-fit cuts for a sleek and fashionable silhouette.

4. Versatility

Contemporary suits offer versatility, making them suitable for various occasions. Look for suits that you can easily dress up or down, allowing you to transition seamlessly from formal events to more casual outings.

Remember to consider your personal style preferences, budget, and specific needs when choosing Contemporary businesswear.

What suit fits are available for Contemporary suiting?

Contemporary suiting offers a wide range of suit fits to suit different preferences and body types. Classic fit, slim fit, and tailoring fit are the three common suit fits available in contemporary suiting.

The classic fit is more relaxed and provides a traditional, timeless look. Slim fit offers a fit with contours and streamlining of a silhouette for a modern and sleek appearance. Tailoring fit combines elements of both classic and slim fit, providing a fit that employs both balance and flattery.
