The wedding season is in full swing but why not flout tradition this year? In case you still have cold feet, Hameedia’s 2016 Wedding Collection has your wedding season woes taken good care of.
Look dapper in the spotlight and be sartorial-wise. Hameedia’s 2016 Wedding Collection introduces six traditional suits in three different colours, from ivory, cream to gold. With cut and sew details, these suits are designed to make enviable style statements.
“Hameedia enjoys the unique distinction of dressing three generations of grooms and our 2016 Wedding Collection celebrates this achievement. A groom who dons this latest wedding collection is sure to be every inch of the debonair,” said Managing Director Fouzul Hameed. “The traditional attire should always be balanced, and the Hameedia’s collection offers a refined nod to the past but also portraying a contemporary sartorial story.”
Elaborating on the collection he added that the traditional collection pays tribute to the classic undertones of traditional attire but incorporates the lively youth of the modernised fit and newer prints and fabrics. The trick to perfecting this dress code, he says, is to juggle the traditionalist aesthetic with a fitted, youthful silhouette.
Hameedia’s 2016 Wedding Collection also has a basic tuxedo in white, grey and black, perfected by incorporating clean and classic pieces for a more polished and sophisticated look. “A tuxedo is still one of the most alluring options and can be worn countless times. We have included a few variations of tux jacket materials and colours which will still register as classical but will not look too traditional,” he said. His advice is that lighter shades like cement and heather are perfect for daytime while darker tones like sharkskin and steel work well in the evening.
If that’s not enough to satiate your sight, the 2016 Wedding Collection will also feature a complete ceremonial collection made out of wool, linen/silk fabric with (Jacquard, plain and Herringbone patterns). Colours of the suits for this range will be available in shades of dusky navies and subdued cobalt, one of the most emergent trends of the season. The suits also come in muted greys, stark maroons and regal purple.
The combinations for this line of collection are 12 styles of fitted dress shirts in cotton detailed with collar bars, studs and cufflinks to boot. The shirts will build on the colour of the suit with complementary shades that will look both presentable and well put together.
New accessories like waist coats, cravats, ties, cummerbund bands, lapel pins, bows, pocket squares and brooches are ideal to personal touches to a dapper look. The accessories instantaneously add refinement to any look, reaffirming your personal style.
“The thinking behind the new collection is to offer a groom a one-stop solution. At Hameedia I believe that every bridegroom deserves to have a dapper, well-fitting suit for one of the most memorable events of his life. Every suit is customised and individualised to suit his individual sense of style, personality coupled with style idea and trends from our in-house stylists who will advise you on executing the best look for your big day,” Hameed added.
