FAQs

What material is the suit made of?

The Paulo Due 2 Piece Tailored Trouser Suit is made from a soft stretch suiting fabric, which is 100% Polyester.

Can I machine wash this suit?

Yes, this suit is fully machine washable. We recommend using a gentle cycle with cold water and air drying to maintain its quality.

Is this suit suitable for all seasons?

The polyester stretch fabric makes it a versatile choice. While it can be worn year-round, its breathability might be less optimal in very hot and humid conditions compared to natural fibers. It's well-suited for moderate climates and indoor events.

What is the inseam measurement for the trousers?

The inside leg measurement for the trousers is 31.5 inches (80cm), designed for a flattering wide straight-leg drape.

Can I wear the jacket and trousers separately?

Absolutely! Both pieces are designed to be versatile. The jacket can be paired with other trousers or skirts, and the high-waist trousers can be styled with various tops for different looks.

What size is this specific suit?

This particular suit is a UK women's dress size 12.

How do I choose the correct size?

Refer to the standard UK sizing guide for women's apparel. We recommend checking your bust, waist, and hip measurements against a size chart to ensure the best fit, especially considering the high-waist trousers.

Troubleshooting

Suit feels too tight or too loose

Verify your measurements against the size chart. If within the return window, consider exchanging for a different size. Minor adjustments can often be made by a professional tailor for a perfect custom fit.

Fabric appears wrinkled after washing

Ensure you are hanging the suit immediately after washing to air dry. If wrinkles persist, use a steamer or iron on a low setting (inside out or with a pressing cloth) while the garment is slightly damp.

Buttons on jacket or sleeves feel loose

This is a common wear-and-tear issue. A quick stitch with matching thread can easily re-secure loose buttons, preventing them from falling off and getting lost.

Stains on the fabric

For fresh stains, blot immediately with a clean cloth, avoiding rubbing. Follow machine washable care instructions, pre-treating the stain with a suitable fabric-safe stain remover before washing.

Shoulder pads feel out of place or uncomfortable

Gently adjust the shoulder pads from the inside of the jacket to ensure they sit flat and symmetrically. If they are permanently misshapen, professional tailoring might be needed to reshape or replace them.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Versatile for multiple occasions, from work to weddings
  • Comfortable due to soft stretch suiting fabric
  • Easy to maintain as it is fully machine washable
  • Flattering high-waist, wide-leg trouser design
  • Elegant and professional appearance with structured jacket
  • Durable construction with fully lined jacket and quality details

Cons

  • Polyester material may not be as breathable as natural fibers in very warm climates
  • Wide straight-leg trousers might require length alteration for some individuals
  • Single button closure on jacket may not suit all body types or style preferences
  • Specific black color may limit options for certain events requiring lighter hues

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup & Fitting

Upon receiving your Paulo Due Trouser Suit, try on both pieces to ensure the fit is as expected. The trousers feature a high waist and a wide straight leg. The inside leg measures 31.5" (80cm), so consider if this length is suitable for your preferred footwear or if minor alterations are needed for a perfect fit. The jacket is designed with structured shoulders and a single button closure. Ensure shoulder pads sit correctly on your shoulders for the intended silhouette. Check arm length and overall drape.

Compatibility & Styling

This black trouser suit is highly versatile. It pairs well with a variety of tops, from crisp button-down shirts for a formal business look to silk blouses or elegant camisoles for evening events. For footwear, heels or smart flats complement the wide-leg trousers. Accessories like belts (the trousers have belt loops), scarves, and jewelry can further customize your outfit for different occasions.

Product Care

The most significant advantage of this suit is its ease of care.

  • Washing: The suit is fully machine washable. Use a gentle cycle with cold water and a mild detergent. To maintain the fabric's integrity and color, wash with similar dark colors.
  • Drying: Air dry by hanging the jacket and trousers on appropriate hangers to help maintain their shape and prevent wrinkles. Avoid tumble drying, as high heat can damage the fabric and alter the fit.
  • Ironing: If necessary, iron on a low heat setting, preferably inside out or with a pressing cloth to protect the fabric's finish. The stretch fabric generally resists heavy wrinkling.
  • Storage: Store both pieces on broad hangers in a cool, dry place to prevent creasing and maintain their structure.
