Which green suits you
Bright kelly green, the shade of the Sergio Hudson suit, flatters deeper and warmer skin tones and reads joyful in photographs. Emerald is a jewel tone that works on almost everyone at night. Sage and olive are softer and wear like neutrals in the office. Hold the colour under your chin in daylight: if your skin looks clear and your eyes look brighter, it is your green.

How to wear a green suit
Green pairs best with white, black, cream, camel and gold. With the kelly suit, a white shirt such as the Sergio Hudson Rounded Collar Button Down keeps it crisp; a black knit makes it sharper. Gold jewellery warms every green. For weddings, wear the suit with a silk camisole and a metallic heel. Split it: the jacket over black trousers, the trouser with a cream knit. For other bright tailoring, see pink suits for women and red blazers.
| Green | Pair with | Occasion |
|---|---|---|
| Kelly | White, black, gold | Weddings, daytime events |
| Emerald | Black, gold, champagne | Evening, Christmas parties |
| Sage | Cream, camel, white | The office, spring |
| Dark green | Navy, burgundy, black | Autumn and winter |
What you pay for in a designer green suit
Strong colour shows every flaw, so cloth and construction matter more than in black. Pure wool, like the Sergio Hudson suit, takes dye evenly and keeps its depth after cleaning. Cady and crepe, used by Max Mara, give a matte surface that makes green look richer. A silk lining stops the jacket clinging. And a made to measure feel at the waist, which is what Hudson, LaQuan Smith and Alex Perry all build into their cut, is what stops a bright suit looking like a costume.
Green through the seasons
In autumn and winter, deep emerald and dark green with black boots and a camel coat. In spring, sage and kelly with white trainers and a white shirt. In summer, a green trouser alone with a white tank. Green is one of the few colours that works in every season, which is why it rewards the investment.
