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

If you only own one suit, make it navy. It works for almost every occasion, flatters almost every skin tone, and goes with almost any shirt and tie. The Paul Lorenzo Navy Slim Fit 2-Piece Suit gives you that classic color in a clean, modern cut. Here is how to get the most out of it.

Why Navy?

Navy looks sharp and trustworthy without being as stiff as black. It is right for the office, job interviews, weddings, church, graduations and dinners out. Change the shirt, tie and shoes and it becomes a different outfit.

The Cut: Modern Slim Fit

The jacket has a tapered waist, a two-button, single-breasted front, a notch lapel and double rear vents. It is fully lined with outer and inner pockets. The matching pants are slim fit with a flat front, a mid-rise waist and a zipper fly. They are lined to the knee and come full length, ready for your tailor to hem.

Sizing Made Simple: Drop 6

This suit is a drop 6: the pants waist is 6 inches smaller than the jacket size. Every size lists both numbers, like 40R/34W (40 Regular jacket, 34 waist pants).

Sizes run 34R to 62R in Regular, 34S to 46S in Short and 38L to 56L in Long. Short fits men about 5'4" to 5'7", Regular about 5'8" to 6'0", and Long about 6'1" and taller. Pick your jacket size by measuring around the fullest part of your chest.

How to Style a Navy Suit

For the Office or an Interview

A white or light blue shirt with a burgundy or striped tie. Dark brown oxfords and a matching belt.

For a Wedding

A white shirt, a silver, pink or light blue tie, and brown or tan shoes. Add a white pocket square.

For an Evening Event

A white shirt, a black or dark navy tie, and black shoes for a more formal look.

For the Weekend

Wear the jacket with jeans or chinos, or over a white tee with white sneakers.

Care Tips

  • Dry clean only, and only when needed.
  • Hang the jacket on a wide, shaped hanger.
  • Steam out wrinkles between wears and rotate with another suit.
