The Cobalt Mohair Suit: Blue, But Better - Gresham Blake Online

The Case for Blue

Blue is the suit colour that never lets you down. It looks proper at weddings, sharp at work, and it’s easy to wear again and again without anyone clocking it as a repeat performance.

And for those blessed with blue eyes, blue suits are your not so secret weapon. They don't fight your colouring. They back it up beautifully. Subtle, yes. Effective, very.


The Cobalt Blue Mohair Suit: A Bit Special, Actually

If you want blue with a glint in its eye, a touch of swagger, and impeccable posture, allow us, gently but enthusiastically, to introduce the Cobalt Blue Mohair Suit.

Navy is the sensible sibling. Reliable. Trustworthy. Always on time.
Cobalt, on the other hand, has energy. It is brighter, cleaner, and slightly mischievous. Think navy after a very good espresso.

Mohair is what you choose when you want presence. A Cobalt Blue Mohair Suit has a gentle, refined sheen that catches the light in a thoroughly flattering way. Crisp in daylight, rich under evening lights, and dangerously photogenic. Wedding photographers approve. They always do.

It also behaves impeccably. Mohair holds its shape like it is personally offended by wrinkles. Lapels stay sharp, trousers keep their line, and the suit still looks fresh long after lesser fabrics have slumped into quiet disappointment.

Why Mohair Is Brilliant

Mohair comes from the Angora goat, an animal that clearly takes resilience very seriously. In tailoring terms, this is excellent news for you.

It holds a crease like it has sworn an oath - Your trousers stay sharp all day, even after sitting, standing, striding purposefully, or loitering near the bar.

It breathes - Comfortable even in warm rooms, crowded weddings, and long days that require stamina and charm in equal measure.

It has a natural glow - Not shiny. Not flashy. More quietly impressive. The sort of thing people notice without being able to explain why.

It is tough - Mohair wears extremely well. Ideal if you want a suit that earns its keep rather than spending its life in a garment bag like a museum piece.

Weddings: Blue, But With a Bit of Joy

For weddings, blue gives you options. Navy is handsome and traditional. Cobalt adds a celebratory lift. More champagne than boardroom.

It looks excellent with crisp white shirts, works beautifully with florals and summer light, and transitions easily from tie and polish to open collar and pocket square confidence.

If you are the groom, cobalt says “special” without tipping into “theatrical”.
If you are a guest, it is respectful, sharp, and interesting enough to show you have made an effort, which is always appreciated.


Business Wear: Confident, Not Corporate Costume

In business settings, blue reads as capable, trustworthy, and composed. It is lighter than black, more flexible than grey, and far more likeable than either.

Cobalt, in particular, feels modern. It suggests you care about detail, but you did not stay up all night agonising over it.

Pair it with a pale blue shirt for a clean tonal look, or crisp white for contrast. A dark knit tie keeps things weekday appropriate. A patterned silk adds just enough personality when the mood allows.


What Goes With Blue? Thankfully, Almost Everything

Blue is very sociable. It gets on with most of your wardrobe and does not start arguments.

Shirts: White is timeless. Pale blue is smooth. Soft pink works surprisingly well for weddings or summer. Subtle stripes, absolutely.

Ties: Burgundy is rich and reassuring. Navy is a classic tonal move. Knitted or silk jacquard ties both pair beautifully with mohair.

Shoes: Dark brown is a perennial favourite. Black keeps things formal. Mid brown shines at weddings and in warmer months.

Accessories: A white pocket square keeps things clean. A patterned one adds personality. And if you want the cloth to do the talking, keep everything else understated and let the mohair shine.


Why Bespoke Is Best

A good suit doesn’t feel like armour. It feels like you, but improved. Bespoke means the suit is built around your body, your posture, and the way you actually move, not an imaginary mannequin with perfect proportions.

A fit that’s properly yours: Not “close enough”, actually right.

Clean balance and proportion: Correct shoulders, a shaped waist, trousers that fall properly. All the things people notice without knowing they’re noticing them.

Personal touches: Choose from hundreds of linings, buttons, lapel shapes, pocket styles, subtle monograms, the details that turn a suit into your suit. Sensible on the outside, delightfully cheeky on the inside if you wish.

Bespoke isn’t about looking dressed up. It’s about looking comfortable, confident, and entirely at ease, because everything sits exactly where it should.
