Nothing says “summer wedding” quite like seersucker. Yankee gentlemen take note, as Southern cool is the way to embrace the humidity you’ll face this summer. The subtle striping and light-weight cotton feel will have you craving mint juleps, a hazy breeze and kicking back on the ol’ porch swing. For some, a seersucker suit is deemed far too casual for a formal event. Prep it for a sharper appearance by adding a little extra, as it’s best to overdress; think about a color pop in the sock, a bold brogue or a floral pocket square. Keep the collar closed until you’re ready to embrace the dance floor … and the open bar.
