Few outfits provide the same level of gravitas and confidence as a quality charcoal suit. It’s the suit colour most strongly associated with power, wealth, and wisdom, and you’ll often see high-flying businessmen, public speakers, and corporate creatives rocking this particular look. Less formal than black, yet more business-like and serious than lighter grey, blue, or brown, it’s a deeply reliable suit colour, and one which rarely lets the wearer down. From our point of view, it’s also a colour which works brilliantly with a wide range of Robertto’s pocket squares, which are the ideal suit accessories for when you want to add some real sense of personality to your charcoal suit!
