Often, all the attention is focused on the image of the bride, and grooms are overlooked when planning a wedding. Many people think: “A suit is a suit, it’s a suit...”, but this is not true at all! Let's look at the trends we are predicting for 2024. From cuts to fabrics to colors, there's a lot to look forward to in 2024.
BLACK TIE
A slim fit, well-tailored suit will definitely make you stand out in the room. Although some trendsetters insist on oversized suits, we are all for the classic groom look. And in general, on this day, you are the guy everyone is looking at! Spend money on a well-cut suit, it will make you chic and confident and you will look like a million dollars in photos that will last a lifetime! And classics, as we know, never go out of style!
WHITE TUXEDOS
The popularity of black tie is obvious, but lately we've also seen a surge in white tuxedos and white jackets for a wedding reception. So stylish with a touch of old money style, this is one trend we can't wait to see more of!
THREE-PIECE SUITS
A three-piece suit remains always timeless. After the wedding ceremony, the jacket can be removed. A vest is the perfect outfit item to look more relaxed and stylish. It is a great solution to look fashionable and comfortable to dance the night away.
TEXTURE - ECOFRIENDLY FABRICS
We've been seeing lots of texture on suit jackets: from brocade, satin and velvet to corduroy, linen, and seersucker, and this is cool while we're all about adding that touch of luxury to your wedding day look.
The trend of 2024 is a switch towards to natural fabrics. You can find suits made from silk, cotton, linen, and even recycled polyester. What could be better than wearing an eco-friendly, breathable, and lightweight suit to your wedding in Italy. It's very hot here in the summer) It's a win-win!
COLORFUL SUITS
From blush pink and bold burgundy to emerald green and rich rusty tones the biggest trend for grooms this year has to be colorful suits. If you're into a safe look, a black or gray suit is the way to go. And that’s great! BUT, think about changing your look for a wedding dinner! Why not? We are predicting some striking color options for men’s suits.
Try to look stylish and gorgeous by pairing a white tie on white shirt, black bow on a black shirt, or your personal favorite color; whatever color you choose, matching the tone of your tie to your shirt is an easy way to give your wedding suit a modern, minimalist look. And this could be a great idea for groomsmen to wear.
SHOES
We think the era of "crazy socks" has gone. Try to wear more neutral solid socks or no socks! This trend might be a divisive one, but there's no denying the sockless look is here to stay. If you do want to flash some ankle in your wedding suit, the key is twofold, a great pair of shoes.
COOL & CASUAL
If you have a multi-day wedding, you should look stylish every day! opt for a crisp white T-shirt with a vest, a shirt without a tie, or a colorful suit for a welcome dinner. You can add bright identical elements to the look of the groom and groomsmen - this could be a bright scarf, belt, hat.
So, here are our predictions for the 2024 wedding season for grooms and groomsmen. Sure, brides get more attention, that's for sure, but that doesn't mean guys don't deserve a little love and guidance too. We really hope that this article has given you some ideas that you can use when planning your wedding in Italy.
