FAQs
What material is the Paulo Due Trouser Suit made from?
The Paulo Due 2 Piece Trouser Suit (Grey, UK 12) is made from Wool, featuring a soft suiting fabric with a gentle stretch for comfort and ease of movement.
How should I clean this suit?
Due to its Wool material, professional dry cleaning is highly recommended to maintain the suit's quality, shape, and color. For minor spills, blot gently with a clean, damp cloth.
Are the pockets on the jacket functional?
The jacket features functional flapped slit pockets that are usually basted shut for shipping. You can carefully open them by snipping the visible tacking stitches. There is also a decorative top pocket.
What is the inseam length of the trousers?
The wide-leg trousers have an inside leg measurement of 31.5 inches (80cm), designed to be versatile for pairing with both heels and flats.
What occasions is this suit best suited for?
This suit is perfect for a variety of formal occasions, including weddings, formal events, professional workwear, and can serve as an elegant mother of the bride outfit.
How do I choose the right size?
The suit is designed to flatter a range of body types with its soft stretch fabric and elegant cut. Refer to standard UK sizing for women's apparel. The model shown is 5'7" (170cm) and wears a UK size 12 for reference.
Can I wear this suit in different seasons?
Wool is a natural fiber that offers breathability and insulation. While it can be worn year-round in many climates, it may feel warmer in very hot conditions. Its versatility makes it suitable for most seasons and indoor events.
Troubleshooting
Suit appears wrinkled after unpacking or wearing.
Hang the suit immediately on a padded hanger. Use a garment steamer to gently remove wrinkles. For stubborn creases, professional dry cleaning and pressing are recommended.
Jacket pockets are sewn shut.
The flapped slit pockets on the jacket are intentionally tacked closed for shipping. Carefully use small scissors to snip the visible basting stitches, being cautious not to cut the actual pocket fabric.
Trousers are too long or short for my preferred shoe height.
The trousers have a 31.5" inseam. For an optimal fit with your chosen footwear, consult a professional tailor for alterations. They can adjust the hem to your exact requirements.
Suit feels slightly stiff or uncomfortable initially.
The soft suiting fabric with gentle stretch will adapt with wear. Ensure you have chosen the correct size according to the size guide. If discomfort persists, check if the inner lining or any tags are causing irritation.
Fabric appears dull or shows minor pilling.
For wool fabric, a fabric shaver can carefully remove minor pilling. To restore vibrancy, professional dry cleaning is often the best solution. Always avoid harsh brushes or excessive rubbing.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup
Your Paulo Due Trouser Suit is ready to wear with minimal preparation. Upon receiving, you may find the flapped slit pockets on the jacket to be basted (sewn shut with loose stitches) for shipping and to maintain their shape. To open them, carefully snip the visible tacking stitches with small scissors, being careful not to cut the actual pocket fabric.
Compatibility
This suit is highly versatile and compatible with a range of accessories and footwear:
- Footwear: The wide-leg trousers are designed to be worn with both heels and flats. Consider the 31.5" inseam when selecting your shoes to achieve the desired length and drape. For a longer, elongating look, pair with block heels or pumps. For comfort, smart flats or low loafers work equally well.
- Tops: Layer with a crisp button-down shirt for a professional look, a silk camisole for an evening event, or a fine-knit turtleneck for cooler weather.
- Accessories: Enhance the suit with a statement necklace, a delicate scarf, or a classic belt through the trouser belt loops. The grey color provides a neutral base for bold or subtle accessory choices.
Care
Proper care will ensure the longevity and pristine appearance of your Wool Paulo Due Trouser Suit. The `Wool` material generally requires specific attention:
- Cleaning: It is highly recommended to dry clean your suit to preserve the fabric's integrity, color, and shape. Consult a professional dry cleaner for best results.
- Spot Cleaning: For minor spills, gently blot with a clean, damp cloth. Avoid rubbing, which can damage the wool fibers.
- Storage: Hang both the jacket and trousers on a padded hanger to maintain their shape and prevent creasing. Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.
- Wrinkle Removal: Use a garment steamer to remove wrinkles gently. Avoid direct high heat from an iron, or use a low-heat setting with a pressing cloth if necessary.
