How to Wear a Hunter Green Suit: The Paul Lorenzo Slim Fit 2-Piece

Navy and charcoal are safe. Hunter green is confident. It is a deep, rich green that looks expensive, photographs beautifully, and feels right from early fall through the holidays. The Paul Lorenzo Hunter Green Slim Fit 2-Piece Suit puts that color in a clean, modern cut. Here is what makes it work and how to style it.

Why Hunter Green?

Hunter green is dark enough to wear like a classic suit but different enough to get noticed. It works with most skin tones and pairs easily with white, black, cream, light pink and light blue shirts. It is a favorite for fall and winter weddings, prom and homecoming, holiday parties, and any event where you want to look sharp without wearing what everyone else has on.

The Cut: Modern Slim Fit

This suit has a slim fit that follows your shape without squeezing. The jacket has a tapered waist, a two-button, single-breasted front, and a notch lapel. Double rear vents let the jacket move with you when you sit or reach. The jacket is fully lined and has outer and inner pockets.

The matching pants are slim fit with a flat front, a mid-rise waist, and a zipper fly with a single button. They are lined to the knee and come full length, so your tailor can hem them to the exact break you want.

Sizing Made Simple: Drop 6

This suit is a drop 6. That means the pants waist is 6 inches smaller than the jacket size. Every size on the product page lists both numbers, so you know exactly what you get:

  • 38R/32W: 38 Regular jacket with 32 waist pants
  • 40R/34W: 40 Regular jacket with 34 waist pants
  • 42R/36W: 42 Regular jacket with 36 waist pants

Sizes run from 36R to 62R in Regular, 38S to 46S in Short, and 42L to 56L in Long, so both slim guys and big and tall guys can find a fit.

Which length do I need?

  • Short (S): about 5'4" to 5'7"
  • Regular (R): about 5'8" to 6'0"
  • Long (L): about 6'1" and taller

To find your jacket size, measure around the fullest part of your chest. If your waist runs more than 6 inches under your chest, a tailor can take the pants in.

How to Style a Hunter Green Suit

For a Fall or Winter Wedding

Pair it with a crisp white shirt and a burgundy or gold tie. Brown suede or cognac leather shoes and a matching belt keep it warm and seasonal. Add a cream or burgundy pocket square.

For Prom or Homecoming

Go bold with a black shirt and a black or gold bow tie, or keep it classic with a white shirt and a black tie. Black dress shoes finish the look. Match your pocket square to your date's color.

For the Holidays

Hunter green was made for holiday parties. Try a white or light pink shirt with a red, burgundy, or plaid tie and dark brown shoes.

For a Night Out

Wear the jacket over a black or cream turtleneck or a fitted crew-neck tee. Add clean white leather sneakers or black Chelsea boots.

Care Tips

  • Dry clean only. Clean it only when needed to keep the color rich.
  • Hang the jacket on a wide, shaped hanger to hold the shoulders.
  • Steam out wrinkles between wears.
  • Rotate with another suit so the fabric can rest.
