Triple Threat Want to go formal without donning a tux? Choose a three-piece suit instead. Color coordinate with the bride in Alexander McQueen’s winter-white version, or go the more trad-itional route with ensembles by John Varvatos and Joseph Abboud. Leave your jacket unbuttoned like they did at Brioni to show off the slimming effect of that vest underneath. Alexander McQueen Photo: Courtesy of the designer

Go Green We’re not talking ecofriendly”but we like the way you’re thinking. We’re talking color! Mix in a little emerald, moss, or army green with your usual palette of greys and blacks. No need to go all out: Prada’s marsh-colored two-toned sports coat is balanced by classic gray pin-striped trousers. Skip the tie as they did at Loden Dager for a slightly less formal look.

Ditch the Wool Lush velvet jackets turn a traditional suit into something extraordinarily special. This winter, opt for rich jewel-toned colors such as luxe burgundy (see Salvatore Ferragamo) or plum (as witnessed at Brioni). For some-thing with a little je ne sais quoi, try Moschino’s deep-red smoking jacket with classic black satin lapels. Brioni Photo: Courtesy of the designer
