7 Summer Suits Only Old Money Wears (And Why It's Never Linen Blend) Every department store sells the same summer suit fabric. It photographs well, wrinkles acceptably, and moves through a supply chain without complaint. Old money has never bought it once. In this video we count down seven summer suit fabrics that old money actually wears — from the one most people recognise to the one almost nobody outside a bespoke fitting room can name, despite the fact that it has been the preferred summer commission of old money families for over a hundred years. You will learn why the scratchy handle on Fresco cloth is the feature, not a defect. Why mohair — which every retailer calls a winter fiber — is one of the most sophisticated summer materials in existence. And why the number one fabric on this list was literally engineered to deflect solar radiation, has a name that means solar in Italian, and is almost certainly what you have been looking at every time you wondered why an old money summer suit looked different from everything else. The summer suit conversation has never been about what looks right. It is about what performs correctly. Linen blend performs for the retailer. These seven fabrics perform for the person wearing them. #oldmoney #oldmoneyfashion #summersuit #luxurymenswear #quietluxury #oldmoneyaesthetic #mensfashion #bespoke #summersuiting #stealthwealth #luxuryfashion #oldmoneystyle 1.
