Wear It Three Ways, Part II

If you take your queues on style from your Neopolitan tailor or collect copies of Leon when you’re supposed to be on business in Tokyo, then you probably want to wear your summer suits a little differently than the average American. Rather than a semi-spread collar blue broadcloth shirt, you want the cutaway collar chambray; rather than the traditional four-in-hand, you double knot your tie with the thin blade falling lower than the wide blade. The crunchy linen tie is your best friend in the situation and the unbuckled suede double monkstraps would get you the tip of a hat from the likes of Gianni Agnelli.
