Blue Velvet Suits | Custom Made to Measure

Blue velvet suits, made to measure for men. Velvet takes blue deeper than any flat cloth: the pile catches light on the folds and goes almost black in the shadows. This page gathers every blue we cut in velvet, from navy and midnight through royal and cobalt to sky and powder blue.

Dark blues are the evening choice, worn with a white dress shirt, a black bow tie and black shoes. Lighter blues suit parties, proms and daytime celebrations. Velvet is an autumn and winter cloth. Each suit is cut to your own measurements after you order.

Blue velvet suit FAQs

When should you wear a blue velvet suit?

Evening events from October to March: black-tie-optional dinners, winter weddings, holiday parties and proms. Navy and midnight are the most formal; royal and cobalt are for standing out.

What goes with a blue velvet suit?

A white dress shirt, a black or navy bow tie and black shoes. Keep the trousers matching for a full suit, or wear the jacket with black dress trousers as a dinner jacket.

Which shade of blue velvet is most versatile?

Navy. It reads as formal as a black dinner jacket but softer, and it is the easiest velvet to wear more than once.

Can you wear a blue velvet suit to a wedding?

Yes, for an evening or winter wedding. As a guest, choose navy or midnight unless the invitation asks for colour.
