SPRING / SUMMER SUIT FABRIC TRENDS 2016

Here at Fielding & Nicholson we pride ourselves on offering only the most premium of cloths, created at the old English Mills in Huddersfield, Yorkshire. Our range of fabrics is continually updated to reflect the newest patterns, bringing you the latest designs and styles to create truly bespoke garments from season to season.

Our latest addition is a lightweight mohair to keep you cool on warmer days, perfect for transitioning from daytime to evening. Mohair and silk blends will similarly keep you on trend this coming season with hues of indigo blue, purple and green making a dominant appearance. The check is a staple pattern this Spring/Summer and a classic which will see you through until the colder months.

Beautiful lightweight Dorsilk in a wool and silk blend, available in classic shades of grey, black and navy make a strong foundation for the Spring/Summer, with these classic pieces ideal for the basis of a capsule wardrobe. Dorsilk provides the fluid drape of silk combined with classic weight of wool. Shades of muted sage green, navy and grey in windowpane designs will bring a modern and distinct update to your fabric choices this season.

However, bright and lively jewel tones including orange and green also make an appearance in other spring and summer fabric choices including linens, luxurious cashmere and silk blends and bamboo. Plain weaves and coloured check patterns are seen across all fabric types with super soft lightweight jacketings and luxury being the biggest trends of all.

If you’re looking for something classic, we’d highly recommend a lightweight plain weave in a navy or grey, keeping your style understated and smart, with the option of adding accessories in on trend jewel tones to allow the development of your own sense of style. For a more quirky or edgy look we’d recommend a cobalt and blue windowpane patterned weave in a silk and cashmere blend, with a bright accent stripe to keep you looking fashionable for all occasions.
