Nodding to classic safari jackets, Mr P.’s linen overshirt is the kind of easy-to-wear staple that you can dress up effortlessly – with the matching pleated trousers from the same collection, for instance. Both part of our Consciously Crafted edit, they’re made using lower-impact linen and organic cotton that have a soft, breathable handle.

A beige suit may just be one of the most versatile smart get-ups you can invest in for summer – particularly one that’s as light and unstructured as Mr P.’s. Cut from a breathable blend of responsibly sourced cotton and linen and garment-dyed for extra softness, it’s the perfect option for anything from an al fresco dinner to an August wedding. Style yours with a striped tee or opt for a button-up to take things up a notch.

Mr P. works with storied European mills to ensure the only the highest quality fabrics are used to make its collections. For this rustic brown suit, for example, the brand has chosen a Super 110s wool-twill sourced from Vitale Barberis Canonico, one of Italy's oldest fabric manufacturers. The trousers are cut with neatly pressed creases, while the butterfly-lined around the shoulders so it layers neatly, while keeping you cool in the heat.

This khaki suit combines the comfort of loungewear with the formal appeal of tailoring. No matter what you wear underneath – and whether you team it with sneakers, loafers or sandals – the waffle-knit, tactile handle adds an element of textural interest that’ll instantly elevate any get-up. Both the jacket and the matching trousers – fitted with a discreet drawstring for easy adjusting – are cut from organic cotton, which is sure to keep you comfortable in warmer weather.

If you’re dressing for an evening function, our suggestion would be to go for something classic, such as an endlessly wearable navy suit. If it’s not broken, don’t fix it, right? The linen construction makes the whole suit lightweight and breathable, and the carefully considered details – hallmarks of high-quality tailoring, such as clean notch lapels, smart horn buttons and a butterfly lining – are guaranteed to earn it a spot in your rotation for years to come.

White – or ivory, rather – in summer is a bit like florals in spring… Not exactly groundbreaking, but we’ll take it, please. If you have a wedding or a garden party coming up, Mr P.’s suit, tailored from responsibly sourced linen and left unstructured for comfort, will look the part without needing too much styling effort. Worried about getting to the end of the function with no stains? Take a peek at our guide, you, too, can wear white or any adjacent colour without embarrassing yourself.

With just a little consideration given to construction and fabric, a suit has the potential to be one of the most comfortable items in your summer wardrobe. And it helps that Mr P.’s has designed this pastel blue one to be worn regularly. It’s garment-dyed, so it remains soft despite its sturdy twill construction (achieved from a blend of responsibly sourced cotton and linen), and left unstructured and unlined, which means you’ll be able to wear it with anything from a casual tee to a more formal Oxford. The matching trousers, too, have front pleats for a little extra room.
