Although we’re known for being one of the best independent bridal boutiques in Cheshire, not many people associate Maria Modes with groomswear but that’s where you’re wrong.
As well as an extensive selection of bridal gowns, we also have a whole range of men’s wedding clothing including a collection of different suits and accessories to suit all different types of grooms and because of this, we also have great knowledge on the world of men’s wedding fashion and we’re going to be sharing some of what we know with you today.
We’re going to be giving you an insight into five of the top groomswear trends that you need to know about if you’re tying the knot in 2018.
007 Inspired
Tuxedos and bow ties aren’t just reserved for black tie events, they’re perfectly suited for the wedding season too.
Channelling your inner James Bond when you head down the aisle is more on trend this year than ever before and is a look we’re seriously loving. Suave, sophisticated and effortlessly cool, sporting a dinner suit and black bow tie is a classic combination and bound to help you turn heads when you make your way to the altar.
Our range of men’s wedding dinner suits are available in the traditional black or the bolder option of white, so whichever way you want to wear this monochrome look, you’ll find the right suit for you at Maria Modes.
Country Dapper in Tweed
If you’re tying the knot in the countryside, tweed is a must-have addition to your outfit. Whether you want to go all out with an all tweed suit or just add a subtle touch of this texture with the help of a statement waistcoat, tweed is easy to style and seriously suave.
Our range of wedding waistcoats includes a whole array of tweed fabrics in a selection of colours to work perfectly with every suit or if you want to be bold in this country-style material, our Shrewsbury suit is the one for you.
Say ‘I Do’ in Blue
Not just a groomswear trend for 2018, saying ‘I Do’ in blue or navy has been a popular choice for many wedding seasons now and is always a reliable choice.
Blue is loved for being easy to style with tan accessories and is a versatile option for all seasons, so whether you’re hosting a winter wedding or tying the knot abroad, blue will work for you.
Not to be confused with a ‘safe bet’, blue suits can be as simple or statement as you like depending on the style of suit you choose and the kind of fabric you go for and when you explore the range of blue and navy wedding suits we have available, you’ll be spoilt for choice.
Traditional Tailcoats
We may live in a modern world but when it comes to weddings in 2018, traditional is right on trend. Tailcoats and top hats may seem like a style from ‘way back when’ but they’re back in this season and better than ever before.
Although still a true representation of the original style, our range of tailcoats and morning suits have had a little revamp to showcase more flattering fits and modern materials to cater for the 21st-century groom.
Put Your Best Foot Forward in Brogues
Believe it or not, many men take their wedding shoes just as seriously as their brides do which is why we think it’s important to let our grooms-to-be know about the hottest footwear trend for stepping down the aisle this season and that’s brogues.
The perfect smart-casual shoe, if you’re a modern man who is sporting an effortlessly cool suit for the big day, you need a pair of brogues to complete your look. Available from our menswear department in a range of colours including grey, brown, tan and black, we have the best brogues to match every suit.
Comfortable, practical and stylish, you’re bound to be putting your best foot forward on this special day when you’re working a pair of brogues.
The world of groomswear can be overwhelming but when you visit Maria Modes, we’re here to help every step of the way and pride ourselves on making sure both the bride and groom look perfect on the big day.
