Top Wedding Suit Trends for Grooms in 2026 / 2027
Wedding fashion is ever evolving, and modern grooms are moving beyond the traditional black tuxedo to embrace more personal, stylish and contemporary looks. In 2026 and 2027, wedding suit trends are all about individuality, refined tailoring and statement details that reflect the groom’s personality as much as the wedding theme. From rich colours and textured fabrics to relaxed silhouettes and bespoke touches, grooms are either leaning towards suits that feel bold and impactful, or classic and refined for a look that they can rewear again and again.
Below we’ve listed 7 of the key groomswear trends to look out for in 2026 and 2027.
1. Rich and Unexpected Colours
Whilst classic black and navy suits remain popular as a timeless classic, we’re finding that bold or earthy colours are also trending strongly. Think deep emerald green or aubergines and burgundys for something impactful yet muted, cobalt or royal blue for something standout or soft neutrals like sand, stone or warm chocolate brown for something low-key yet chic. Couples are also being more led by what looks unique and modern in wedding photographs and strikes a difference from the norm, so are in this way moving away from standard tuxedos.
2. Double-Breasted Jackets
A classic style, the double-breasted suit is making a real comeback for grooms who are after a sophisticated or vintage look. A style that feels quite different depending on the fabric choices (think luxe tuxedo black vs. traditional tweed), many grooms are opting for peak lapels, structured shoulders and strong silhouettes. They give a timeless yet powerful look that photographs extremely well.
3. Relaxed Tailoring and Wider Fits
Trends are showing that ultra skinny suits are starting to fade out in favour of straight leg or sometimes wide leg trousers, and more relaxed jackets with softer shoulders. Blending classic tailoring with comfort, many are moving away from the traditional and embracing more laidback styles - think mismatch trousers and jackets and ditching ties, especially at outdoor or destination weddings.
4. Textured and Luxury Fabrics
Fabric choice is a wonderful way to make a statement and embrace something different without choosing a look that feels too ‘out there'. Popular materials typically include velvet at winter weddings, linen and lightweight wool for summer weddings, tweed or textured wool and beautiful silk blends. We find this change in texture adds depth and can wonderfully elevate a classic colour suit.
5. Personalised and Bespoke Details
One of the biggest trends for 2026 and 2027 is customisation, a trend that is also booming within bridal wear too. Examples of this include embroidered initials inside jackets, custom linings with bespoke patterns and meaningful messages stitched into pockets and lapels. Fully bespoke or personalised ready made suits are becoming increasingly popular for weddings, as grooms seek something a little different from the norm.
6. Three-Piece and Statement Waistcoats
A timeless favourite, three piece suits are returning for 2026/2027 with more creative styling. Choices usually include contrasting waistcoats, patterned vests and tonal layering using colours from the same colour family in varying shades. This look adds depth and a slightly heritage or ‘old money’ feel.
7. Sustainable and Rewearable Suits
Many modern grooms want to invest in a luxury wedding suit that is one they know they’ll wear time and time again. For this reason they’re typically choosing classic styles in neutral colours such as black, navy and brown, in organic wools or linens for the most stylish yet versatile options. This trend reflects a broader leaning towards sustainability throughout the full wedding industry, where couples want to feel their money is well-invested and that their impact on the environment is minimal.
