When it comes to male fashion, classic looks always rule, and suits are no different. The suit trends for 2010 take classic looks from the most notable style periods, like the 1930s and 1960s, and give them a modern twist that is more wearable on the modern silhouette.

The super-skinny suit has had its day, but a slim silhouette is still key to keeping on trend. Look for a defined cut that is broad at the shoulders, but slim at the waist. Trousers should also be kept slim, but not skinny and clingy, and anything with a military edge will look current too.

Making a welcome return for 2010 is the double-breasted suit. While the single-breasted suit could be just as flattering, a double-breasted suit brings a vintage edge a more august touch. Avoid big, boxy cuts that are reminiscent of the 80s and stick to the more modern double-breasted cut, which has a far sleeker fit.

When choosing a double-breasted suit, look for a fit that is broad at the shoulders and slim at the waist, which will flatter and lengthen your shape. A favourite in the catwalks is the Kent cut, originally designed for the Duke of Kent. This ...
... has a slightly longer lapel and is great for giving the illusion of added height.

Lapels are important when you are selecting a modern suit. For over a decade lapels have been kept notched. While this will always look good, if you really want to keep up with the trends then you need to look for a suit with peaked lapels. This is a classic 20s style and helps to create that perfect V shape that we all look for in the perfect suit.

As designers look to classic styles for inspiration for their suits cuts, they are also looking to classic cloths to inspire their fabric choices. Classic cloths including pinstripe, Harris Tweed, Houndstooth and Herringbone help you to avoid the dull black, navy, grey wardrobe that has been done to death.

Waistcoats are finally back in a big way. Although they have made the odd appearance over the past decade or two, a three-piece suit is now a must. They key to keeping this look current is to be subtle with it. Avoid bold mismatching waistcoats and stick to waistcoats in the same shade as your suit and trousers. The deeper the V, the slimmer you will look.

The number of buttons you choose for your suit is up to you. The more buttons to your suit, the taller the silhouette that is created. For this reason, single button suits are seen as the most casual, but only really work if you have a taller figure to begin with. Two-button suits are perfect for slimming the waist and creating a little height too. Our guide to the latest suit trends for this season was written by Barton Loi, an experienced stylist.
