108 BESPOKE

One of the most popular fabrics for the summer is linen. It's light, breathable, and comes in a variety of summer colors. With the weather heating up all over the country, sometimes your poly blend, wrinkle-free office shirts just won't cut it. You need something comfortable, but that still makes a style statement. We at 108 believe that this can be an addition to not only your casual wardrobe but your office wardrobe too! Colors such as blues, lavenders, pinks, oranges and yellows are trending this season.  Styled with a pair of light formal trousers or chinos, linens give you that effortlessly stylish Friday dressing look. For a more casual look, jeans, linen trousers and darker chinos do the job. 

Men's shirts are going well beyond the realm of plain, checked and striped. Contemporary designs are coming up, and one trend in particular is taking the market by storm. Contrast-paneled shirts are a really great statement piece for your wardrobe. They're a bold alternative to your traditional prints for a dapper, yet unique look. You can go two ways - tonal or color contrast. Tonal contrasts are shirts that are paneled in tones of one color. Blues, blacks, greys are good colors for these. Contrasts of different colors are a bolder, more fun alternative for those willing to take a bit of a risk. You can even panel a print/check/stripe with a plain base - the combinations are endless! We at 108 love experimenting, so if you're in the mood for one of these - definitely stop by for a custom made, one of a kind contrast-paneled shirt! Photo credits: asos.com
