What the Lutyens is
The suit you will actually wear on a Tuesday.
The Lutyens is SALVE's two-piece suit in Terry Rayon, cut single-breasted with natural shoulders, a notch lapel and a lightly shaped waist, on straight-leg trousers that keep one clean line from jacket to shoe. It is the least ceremonial thing we make and the one most clients wear most.

Where to wear it
The Lutyens is cut for these occasions. Each one links to everything else we make for it.
The details
- Single-breasted, two buttons.
- Natural shoulder, no padding.
- Notch lapel.
- Lightly shaped waist.
- Straight-leg trousers.
- Smooth Terry Rayon.
- Three cloths: Navy, Black and Charcoal Grey.
The best way to wear it
- Navy with a white or blue shirt. It will never be wrong.
- Charcoal grey when you already own a navy suit.
- Black for formal evenings, not for the office.
- With The Monroe, collar open, when the day relaxes.
- The shoulder is the one thing that cannot be altered later. We get it right at the fitting.
- One soft break at the shoe, no more.
- A suit jacket worn alone always reads as half a suit. Buy a jacket if you want a jacket.
- Charcoal grey photographs better than navy under office light.

Everything else, in detail
Questions, answered
The Regent is the occasion suit: double-breasted, fine wool, cut sharp for receptions and evenings at ₹37,500. The Lutyens is the working suit, single-breasted and easier, at ₹24,500. If you are buying one suit, buy this one.
Navy if it is your first suit. Charcoal grey if it is your second, because it does something navy does not and it photographs better under office light.
You can, and many clients do, but a suit jacket worn alone always reads as half a suit. If you want a jacket for its own sake, look at The Viraj or The Dumas.
A smooth blended cloth with good drape. It holds a line through a long day and is comfortable through most of the Gurugram year, which is more than can be said for heavy worsted.
No. It is a black suit, correct for formal evenings and funerals. If the invitation says black tie you want The Vesper or The Nocturne.
What you are risking: an hour.
One hour at your table. Two weeks to wear it.
