Corduroy Gets a Seat at the Table, From Worth Avenue to Fifth Avenue South

A suit cut in corduroy now earns a place in a serious wardrobe, according to one writer who calls it their preferred way to look sharp without seeming to try. The case is simple: it has the structure and finish of a properly made suit, plus a looser, slightly roguish streak that a worsted never quite manages. In Palm Beach that combination reads as old-guard ease, in Naples as good sense, and in Miami as something to wear once the thermostat agrees. Wherever it goes, it rewards the man who wants to arrive well dressed and leave everyone wondering how he made it look so offhand.
