The traditional summer weight cloths are cotton, linen and lightweight wool., though seersucker has also made a resurgence in recent years.
In sunny weather, lighter colours – particularly blues and greys work well along with contrasting combinations – a cream jacket with navy trousers for example or the reverse.

Caccioppoli, the venerable Naplese cloth maker have brought out three new summer swatches – including the aptly named Sun Dream III.
Drapers of Bologna also have some fabulous summer-weight cloths this season:
