When it comes to turning heads, nothing does the trick quite like a bold green suit.

Whether you're out to make a statement or giving your formal wardrobe a new lease of life, green is the colour that’s in right now — fitting in seamlessly at settings like rustic weddings, rural venues and bustling race days.

At House of Cavani, we believe every man deserves a suit that stands out and makes them feel their best. Although green may be a bold choice for some, with the right fitting, shades and accessories to suit any occasion, you’ll steal the show.

Let’s dive in and suit up in style.

The top 5 green suit ideas

If you’re wondering what to wear with a green suit — or more general green suit ideas for a bold new look — you’ve come to the right place.

Below, we list the best suit options with all the shades of green you could ask for. You could say there’s something for every taste.

Sage sophistication…

Considering your foray into the world of green suits? If you’re trying them for the first time, consider sage-coloured suits as your starting point.

A lighter sage green is perfect if you're looking to keep things crisp and contemporary. It’s also a more subtle and unique shade of green – perfect if you don’t want to stand out and prefer to blend in with the crowd.

Ideal for daytime weddings, spring soirées, or a day at the races, the sage tone brings a natural aura and flair to an otherwise formal and striking look.

Lighter greens work well for a suit with a streamlined fit — think tapered trousers, a sharp blazer, and a clean-cut waistcoat to match.

Style Tip: For extra flair, why not pair a sage green suit with a white or off-white shirt to keep the focus on your suit jacket while maintaining a sharp look. Add a soft blush for a subtle pop of colour and finish things off with loafer shoes and a brown belt. If you like to add accessories or pocket squares, try a soft pastel – like roses or creams, or mint – to add just the right amount of flair.

…Or a more muted shade of green suit

Some of us don’t like light colours – and that’s ok.

You can opt for a slightly deeper sage suit to keep that level of sophistication without standing out. Deeper sage and olive suits often give off a more rustic feel – perfect for countryside events and outdoor parties. This look is spot on for groomsmen or anyone wanting a unique ensemble without being overly bold.

Style Tip: While the colour is understated, it’s the accessories that bring the outfit to life. Partner this suit with a patterned tie — floral ones work brilliantly — to introduce depth without overpowering the look. Brown brogues and a classic silver bracelet or watch complete the outfit with quiet confidence.

Bold florals and a rich deep green suit

Sometimes, you need a look that doesn’t stay quiet and screams personality.

That’s where the rich olive suit paired with a floral waistcoat comes in. The deep, earthy base gives you timeless elegance, while the floral waistcoat brings just the right amount of bold personality.

Style Tip: Leave the jacket undone and let the waistcoat carry your outfit. Stick to a simple white shirt and – if you’re feeling bold – skip the tie altogether for that confident, open-collar vibe. A pair of dark brown loafers and a tie bar will elevate the whole look.

Olive with a twist

Double-breasted jackets aren't just for work — they've made a comeback, especially when paired with a modern olive suit.

This suit is ideal for those who like their formalwear with a bit of gravitas. Think strong silhouette, elegant lapels, and a colour that demands attention in the best way.

If you’ve got a broader frame and want to show off your shoulders, the double-breasted suit pinches in at the waist, making you look powerful and sharp.

Style Tip: Don’t overcomplicate it. Go with a classic white shirt and navy or deep burgundy tie. Add black or oxblood shoes, and don’t forget the cufflinks. To complete the sophisticated look, add a white or earthy mustard, untextured pocket square.

Light green with a sharp edge

This soft, light green suit is your secret weapon for creating a put-together look without appearing like you’re trying too hard.

While being fresh and modern, it’s also versatile — being smart enough for the office, but also relaxed for weddings, garden parties, and big outdoor events.

Swap the standard white shirt for a soft sky blue or pale pink to keep things harmonious and flattering. A navy tie adds contrast without clashing — or you can go tieless and let a patterned pocket square do the talking. Finish with suede loafers or monk straps and sunglasses if the weather is nice.
