How to Style a Safari Jacket for Summer: The Bespoke Bon Guide to Sartorial Versatility
At Bespoke Bon, we believe timeless style is about versatility—and few garments capture that better than the safari jacket. Once a symbol of rugged adventure, this jacket has been reimagined by high-end tailoring houses across Italy and embraced by modern gentlemen who demand effortless elegance. Whether you’re dressing up for a summer wedding or keeping it casual for a weekend brunch, a safari jacket is your ultimate warm-weather companion.
And with over 100+ linen shades available at our store, the possibilities for personalized summer style are endless.
Elevated Formal Looks: Safari Jacket as a Blazer Alternative
Think the safari jacket is too casual for formalwear? Think again. When crafted in fine Italian linen or lightweight wool, and tailored with handmade details like hand-finished seams, and functional buttons, it becomes a refined replacement for the traditional blazer. Pair it with a silk tie and formal trousers and you can wear that for business casual or workwear
✦ Pairing Inspiration:
-
A stone beige safari jacket over a crisp white dress shirt, tucked into tailored ivory trousers and finished with tan loafers.
-
A navy or deep olive safari jacket over a tucked-in polo and dress slacks—perfect for summer evening events or rooftop gatherings.
The natural breathability of our linen options ensures you stay cool and composed even on the hottest days.
Smart-Casual Styling: Relaxed Yet Refined
For casual occasions, the safari jacket excels in layered comfort and utility. Choose a soft pastel, earthy neutral, or even a bolder tone from our 100+ linen color range to add personality without losing elegance.
✦ Styling Tips:
-
Pair a sage green or tobacco brown safari with a white crew neck tee, rolled chinos, and suede loafers for effortless off-duty chic.
-
For a resort feel, layer a sky blue safari jacket over a knitted polo and cream drawstring trousers—light, breathable, and sophisticated.
Don’t forget the details: functional pockets, a drawstring waist, and natural horn buttons all contribute to both form and function.
