Don’t let the cold cramp your style.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Sure, it\u2019s rare to be spending hours in sub-zero temperatures whilst wearing black tie, but thought is still needed for the periods of time that you do.<\/p>\n

Thankfully, there\u2019s plenty of ways to stay warm in today\u2019s world, but there\u2019s an art of how to do so stylishly. Layers of clothes will ensure a chunky silhouette, and with temperatures warmer inside, you wouldn\u2019t want perspiration to sodden your look. Follow the below tips to stay looking your best, while the weather remains at its worst.<\/p>\n

Invest in sophisticated thermals<\/h2>\n

No, thermals are not just for ski vacations. Now that climate change has caused many winters to get colder, a thermal T-shirt hidden underneath a shirt seems more necessary than ever. Once you\u2019ve started wearing them everyday, you\u2019ll struggle to imagine your life before them.<\/p>\n

Investing in quality thermals will result in a longer life span, and the higher price point often means you\u2019ll have some added benefits. For example, this style from Falke<\/a> is odor-resistant and moisture-wicking, stopping sweat from seeping through if you\u2019re going into warmer temperatures.<\/p>\n

Moncler Grenoble<\/a> and Kjus<\/a> also have great options. But if the temperature has really dropped, why not throw on a pair of merino long johns under your trousers? This pair from John Smedley<\/a> were designed in collaboration with actor Bill Nighy, to keep him warm whilst enduring long days on set.<\/p>\n

Knits can be formal, too<\/h2>\n

While we wouldn\u2019t suggest it for a black-tie affair, wearing a knit over a shirt and tie can look suitably smart. In fact, it\u2019s a look that\u2019s been spotted on recent catwalks and menswear enthusiasts that sat front row.<\/p>\n

Naturally, your best option is a V-neck that doesn\u2019t have too much of a plunging neckline. Keep the color palette muted and pattern free, as attention should be on the suit and tie rather than the knit. Loro Piana, Saman Amel, and Studio Nicholson have an array worth pursuing.<\/p>\n

Prioritize wool and cashmere formulations<\/h2>\n

Modern advancements have meant that the yarn spun from a woollyback can be found in the most unlikely clothing. No longer are wool or cashmere beholden to a knitter\u2019s hand, you can find them formulating less chunky ready-to-wear garms.<\/p>\n

If the occasion is more smart-casual, and you can get away with a T-shirt under your suit, Dutch-brand Extreme Cashmere<\/a> has styles that are as light as a regular top but made with its namesake fibre.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Of course, a wool suit is a winter staple that you should already have in your wardrobe. But if you\u2019re on the search for new pieces, why not try a wool-blend for something different. Tom Ford<\/a> has combined wool and mohair in this suit jacket, while Thom Sweeney<\/a> offers a trendier option by adding wool to its corduroy cotton fabric.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
