Whatever about double denim this season, what about triple denim? This handsome three-piece suit in lightweight, dark stretch indigo denim is a classic trio from Patric Hollington in Paris that can now be purchased online.

It consists of a crew-neck Balzar jacket (€227), with a 20-pocket waistcoat (€132) and trousers (€98) all made in Italy. It’s shown here with a blue and white striped shirt (€84). They’re from his latest summer catalogue, which features his familiar shapes in new fabrics such as a hardwearing French linen and cotton worker’s cloth in a two-tone natural herringbone. Others include raw India silks, double face and hopsack linens, Kobe cottons from Japan, and Italian wools in wonderful colours. See hollington.fr
