SHINE WITHOUT THE SWEAT

Text by Daniel Whittaker Photos by VCG, Gaopin Translation by Janet

Just because it's a hot and humid mess outside at this time of year doesn't mean that you can't be looking your best. After all, both your professional career and your social calendar don't come to a grinding halt just because those thermometers ruthlessly climb above 35 degrees Celsius. Don't fret gents, as there are many solutions to these dapper concerns, and with some guidance and a dash of ingenuity, you'll have your smart summer wardrobe set to impress.

有溫度，也要風(fēng)度

炎炎烈日，該怎樣避免汗流浹背的尷尬？ 畢竟，你的職業(yè)生涯與社交日歷都不會(huì)因?yàn)闇囟扔?jì)無(wú)情攀升到35攝氏度以上而停止。來(lái)點(diǎn)創(chuàng)意，讓夏天的衣櫥聰明起來(lái)。

Thom Browne新款

Seersucker

This is an essential summer suit in America, with its mix of smart pastel and white stripes and distinct texture. It is equal parts southern gentlemen and the deviant lad on the prowl sipping a mint julep, which probably explains why it was fi rst mass produced in the spiritual home of such endeavours, New Orleans, Louisiana.

泡泡紗

這是美國(guó)人人必備的夏季西裝，其巧妙的條紋與獨(dú)特的紋理結(jié)合在一起。不論是南部紳士還是喝著薄荷酒的小青年，都對(duì)其深有好感。這可能解釋了為什么這種西裝最初是在路易斯安那州新奧爾良首次大規(guī)模生產(chǎn)的。

Louis Vuitton新款

Summer Cotton

This is the default choice of gentlemen around the globe, and for a good reason, it's both light and airy. We recommend looking for an open weave poplin fabric, as opposed to thicker options like corduroy as this will prevent proper airfl ow. The best test is always checking if you can see through the material when holding it up to light.

夏棉

這是全球紳士夏季的默認(rèn)選擇，理由很簡(jiǎn)單，它既輕便又通風(fēng)。可選擇輕薄透氣的府綢面料，相比燈芯絨等較厚的面料，更加令人舒適。

Classic Summer Styles

Here are some examples of summer suits that have conquered the test of time, and feature the perfect combination of lightweight fabrics and classic debonair attitude.

經(jīng)典夏日f(shuō)eel

以下是一些經(jīng)過(guò)時(shí)間檢驗(yàn)的夏季西裝款式，將輕巧面料與文雅風(fēng)度完美結(jié)合。

Fresco Wool

If you've seen a James Bond fi lm that takes place in a tropical location, then 007 is likely wearing one of these summer friendly wool suits. A name like fresco hints that a suit made from this fabric is meant to be worn out on the town when the temperature begins to rise. Perfect if you do much of your business over an al fresco brunch.

巴拿馬

如果您看過(guò)在熱帶地區(qū)拍攝的詹姆斯·邦德電影，你會(huì)發(fā)現(xiàn)007經(jīng)常穿著這種夏季友好的西裝。Fresco (涼爽戶(hù)外)一詞暗示著這種面料可能無(wú)法承受城市高溫，如果能在戶(hù)外早午餐中完成大部分業(yè)務(wù)，那就完美了。

Linen

Linen is one of the most sought after classic summer fabrics because of its lightweight, open weave and casual structure. Though a bit coarser than both fi ne merino wool or cotton fi bres, it wrinkles graciously providing the perfect mix of business casual cool and classy tropical sensibility if paired with a vintage Acapulco shirt.

亞麻

因?yàn)榫哂休p巧，透氣和休閑氣質(zhì)，亞麻是最受追捧的經(jīng)典夏季面料之一。雖然比美利奴或純棉面料略顯粗糙，但如果搭配復(fù)古的阿卡普爾科襯衫，可將商務(wù)休閑風(fēng)與和經(jīng)典熱帶感完美結(jié)合，就算褶皺也顯得很優(yōu)雅。
