Spider-Man: Brand New Day's Suit Teases Tobey Maguire & Andrew Garfield Connection
Spider-Man: Brand New Day's new suit has finally been revealed. Tom Holland appeared in the suit for the first time in a teaser shared by Sony, revealing the web-slinger's new costume for the upcoming sequel — and fans of Tobey Maguire and Andrew Garfield's take on the character will be pleased. Spider-Man 4's suit reveal comes amid a bunch of new reports related to the sequel, including the reveal of two major MCU returns. While these returns aren't Maguire or Garfield, the new suit certainly pays homage to the pair of previous Spider-Men. How Tom Holland's Spider-Man 4 suit could be linked to Tobey Maguire & Andrew Garfield The new suit design has a striking resemblance to the outfits worn by Tobey Maguire and Andrew Garfield in their Spider-Man movies. When the multiversal trio first joined forces in Spider-Man: No Way Home, Earth-616's Peter Parker had a much flashier suit than the other Spider-Men thanks to its Stark Industries technology. However, after Stark's death in Endgame and the public's memory of Spider-Man being erased in No Way Home, the hero's outfit has been stripped back. It's unclear whether this is the same suit Spider-Man was briefly shown wearing at the end of No Way Home, but it appears to be darker in color, more closely resembling the costumes worn by Maguire and Garfield. It also has a raised webbing design similar to those suits. Given that Earth-616 Spider-Man's suits were created by Tony Stark, Peter hasn't had much of a say in their design so far. This means that he may have taken his cues from Maguire and Garfield's suits, lifting his costume idea from his former crime-fighting partners in a homage to them. The suit creation scenes were always weird in previous Spider-Man movies. We know Peter Parker's very intelligent, but when did he become a fashion designer and seamster? But as Tom Holland's Spider-Man will have already seen the other Spider-Man costumes, and will know what materials are required after wearing Tony Stark's suits for so long, this design choice makes a ton of sense.

The best men's suits under £400: 14 favourites for every occasion (and how to style them)
Every man needs a suit. From weddings to funerals, job interviews to formal events – like it or not, sometimes it's the only appropriate thing to wear. The Guardian's journalism is independent. We will earn a commission if you buy something through an affiliate link. Learn more. There's one snag, though: a suit is a big-ticket item. It's not uncommon to spend a few hundred pounds on your chosen two-piece, and if you're after Savile Row-standard tailoring, that number can tip into thousands. But if you know where to look, a good-quality suit doesn't need to cost a fortune. Choose something timeless and you'll have it for years. I still wear a few suits I've held on to for almost a decade. The ones that ended up at the charity shop, meanwhile, typically strayed from the timeless rule, with a skinny leg, bold colours or an ill-fitting silhouette. Suits never really go out of style, but they're having a moment in fashion right now. Tailoring was prominent at the spring/summer 2025 menswear shows – look at Fendi, Gucci, Bottega Veneta, Saint Laurent and Dior for reference. And suits are enjoying a resurgence outside fashion week, too. Menswear influencers (namely @chico_lachowski, @reubenlarkin and @josefmiichael) are sporting suits beyond formal events, and their accounts provide some good styling inspiration – even if you choose to wear the trousers and blazers separately. Read on for my pick of the best suits around at the moment, and scroll below for a guide to how to pick the right suit for you. Hawes & Curtis navy double-breasted suit £349 at Hawes & Curtis The heritage British suit maker, founded in 1913, has four royal warrants under its belt. Today, it's still an expert in tailoring, from a wide range of shirts to silk accessories, as well as a good selection of suits themselves. This double-breasted navy design is an example of what the brand does best: a classic yet strong silhouette made with premium textiles for a suit that looks and feels expensive. Moss black double-breasted tuxedo £279 at Moss The British high-street store Moss Bros rebranded as Moss a couple of years ago – ever since, its menswear collections have gone from strength to strength. The suits now feel modern yet wearable, and more luxurious than most other budget-friendly options. My favourite is this tuxedo (which has some key differences from a plain black suit, namely the contrast satin lapels, satin-covered buttons and satin taping on the trouser seams). It's made using a wool-polyester blend that's crease- and stain-resistant and water-repellent. An added touch of elastane gives it a comfy stretch finish. Mango Amalfi linen suit Blazer £149.99 at MangoTrousers £79.99 at Mango At smart summer events, it's always the guys wearing cream linen who stand out – think Leonardo DiCaprio as Jay Gatsby. Aesthetics aside, pure linen is great for a few reasons. It's naturally breathable and antibacterial, so it'll keep you cool even when it's hot. It's also not a problem if it's a little creased. This Amalfi suit from Mango is a great option. H&M brown suitBlazer £64.99 at H&MTrousers £37.99 at H&M No one can argue with the fact that dark brown looks luxurious. If you don't believe me, the Row's autumn/winter 2025 collection should be enough to convince you. While a suit by the Olsen twins' hyped-up brand would cost upwards of £3,000, you can get a similar colour for much less if you shop around. Case in point: this suit by H&M. For just over £100, this looks stylish, fits nicely, and gives people the impression you just get menswear. Kin black linen-blend suit Blazer £91 at John LewisTrousers £48 at John Lewis Kin is John Lewis's in-house label, and its menswear collections feel more fashiony than the department store's main line, thanks to its modern silhouettes and fashion-forward fabrics. Although it's described as a slim fit, this suit is a little looser than a classic slim cut, making it feel more appropriate for 2025. The linen-viscose blend gives a louche, flowy finish that can be dressed up or down. Selected wool double-breasted suit Blazer £69 at John Lewis£161 at SelectedTrousers £94.50 at Selected Selected is a strong choice for affordable menswear. The online-only brand's collections feel both fashion-forward and premium, especially considering the price bracket. If you're into a roomy fit, this is just the suit for you. It has strong peak lapels, a slouchy shoulder and a double-breasted fit, and is constructed using a timeless neutral wool. Percival tailored seersucker suit Blazer £143.40 at PercivalTrousers £83.40 at Percival Percival is known for menswear classics with a twist. This suit, for example, has patch pockets instead of flaps. It's cut to a cool, laid-back fit. And rather than using a common woven twill or linen, it's made from an interesting seersucker that adds another layer of texture. Asos stone marl slim suit £120 at Asos You can always find a good suit by Asos Design. You may have to scroll past a few stretch-skinny or brightly coloured options, but you can always find something that feels far more expensive than its RRP. This season, this stone double-breasted suit tops the list thanks to its modern fit, tonal tortoiseshell buttons and subtly textured marl fabric.

It's best to avoid anything too light and lean towards darker shades, such as charcoal and slate. It's a colour that can easily look corporate, so avoid that by looking for more relaxed details such as a loose fit or patch pockets. This wool design by Scandi high-street hero Arket nails the brief. Jaeger tailored linen-wool blend suit £370 at M&S You can count on Marks & Spencer for a classic suit at a great price. This time, it's a black double-breasted number by the retailer's high-end line, Jaeger. A black suit may not scream summer, but monochrome fans will be pleased to hear this one's made from a lightweight linen-wool-silk blend to give you a good chance of staying cool in the heat, even in the worst colour for it. Asos Design oversized suit £100 at Asos Pinstripes are best when they're subtle – you want them to be your outfit's supporting character rather than the lead. The barely there stripes on this Asos suit are exactly what you're looking for. This suit will help you lean into the 'corpcore' aesthetic without looking like you're cosplaying an advertising director in the 60s. Double down by wearing it with a striped shirt beneath. Wax London rust linen suitBlazer £210 at Wax LondonTrousers £130 at Wax London Whether you've got a destination wedding (sincerest apologies to your bank account) or want a nice dinner 'fit for a holiday, Wax London's rust suit could be the answer. It's made from linen, the best fabric for the heat, and is designed with a roomy fit to give a laid-back look without feeling too casual. You could dress it down with a vest or up with a linen shirt – and if this orange shade isn't for you, there are five others to choose from. Charles Tyrwhitt navy twill suit £329 at Charles Tyrwhitt A single-breasted navy suit is the classic white T-shirt of the tailoring world. Wear it to any formal engagement, regardless of the time of year or tone of the event, and it will always look good. That's why it's good to invest in quality. Charles Tyrwhitt suits focus on luxe fabrics and good craftsmanship. This is a classic tailored fit made with a natural stretch twill. If you really want to treat yourself, check out the brand's collab with premium Italian fabrics company Reda, which takes things up another notch. Zara hounds tooth linen-blend suit Blazer £49.99 at ZaraTrousers £19.99 at Zara A hounds tooth has a lot to offer. The micropattern adds depth to give a finish more interesting than a plain weave. This suit comes in a versatile shade of green that sits somewhere between moss and sage. There are two key words to keep in mind when you're on the hunt for a suit: fit and fabric. You'll want the suit to be cut and constructed well, with an appropriate textile – linen for summer, wool for winter, or cotton or polyester if you're after an all-rounder. At the moment, double-breasted silhouettes a la Remington Steele (a young Pierce Brosnan smarming his way through a comedy-detective show in top-notch tailoring) are top on the fashion agenda, although a single-breasted style is more understated. The cuffs should always show a touch of your shirt and, as a general rule, the jacket's length should stop around the middle of your palm when your arms are hanging by your sides (an easy test is to see if you can grab the jacket hem with your hand). Trousers should generally have a straight leg with a slight break on the shoe – by which I mean the hem should sit lightly on the shoe, rather than hang above it. For longevity, it's best to stick to a classic colour. Every man should have a black suit to hand: it works for most formal events and it's essential for most funerals. After that, you've got some options. There's my personal favourite, navy, as well as dark brown, cream and the occasional breakout colour. You don't need the entire selection, but it's good to have a choice of a couple of shades so you can choose the best for the engagement at hand – something brighter for summer weddings and something navy for dressing up in the city, for instance. Checks, pinstripes and hounds tooth patterns are all a nice addition, but only as a supporting detail to add depth. That means you should avoid XL checks, bold stripes and loud colour combinations, and instead go for a subtle and understated finish such as a mini hounds tooth or tonal pinstripe. When you're buying off the rack, there are a few names to know. M&S, Zara and Mango are your best bet for affordable options, usually coming below £150. Reiss, Moss and Hawes & Curtis are all tailoring specialists and come with the price to match – costing upwards of £350 – while Percival and Arket are usually top of the list for more casual designs. It's hard to find any you'd consider cheap, but we've made sure every option in this list comes in at less than £400, so you don't need to remortgage your house to look sharp at your next formal function. Though the two-piece is obviously important, it's the accessories that make or break the outfit. A subpar tie or pair of shoes can make an acceptable suit look far less sophisticated. Some tried and tested advice on ties: in my experience, secondhand silk ones have always garnered the most compliments – and they're often much cheaper than brand new. Try a charity shop or thrift store and more often than not you'll find one that works. Or take a look at Rokit, which usually has a good selection. If you're wearing a pocket square too, it's best for it to complement your tie without being too matchy-matchy. And as for shoes, it depends on the occasion. If it's more casual, a pair of loafers or derbies will do, or potentially even smart trainers. A formal dress code usually calls for oxfords.

Did Zelensky Wear A Suit? Ukrainian President's NATO Outfit Leaves Crypto Bettors In Shambles
Benzinga and Yahoo Finance LLC may earn commission or revenue on some items through the links below. What is a suit? This seemingly simple question is at the center of a $53 million dispute on the popular cryptocurrency betting platform Polymarket. Specifically, cryptocurrency bettors are split on whether Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky's recent NATO summit attire was a suit. Zelensky's wardrobe decisions have become a hot-button topic since his ill-fated meeting with President Donald Trump at the White House in February. At that meeting, Zelensky's signature military-esque sweatshirt, donned as an act of solidarity with Ukrainian troops fighting Russia's invasion, attracted snide comments from Trump. 'You're all dressed up today,' Trump said, referring to Zelensky as he stepped out of his car. Don't Miss: — no wallets, just price speculation and free paper trading to practice different strategies. Grow your IRA or 401(k) with Crypto – . In recent months, this incident has inspired multiple betting markets on whether Zelensky will wear a suit on Polymarket. The most recent market, 'Will Zelensky wear a suit before July?' was supposed to resolve on Tuesday, but is still open on Thursday amid disputes over whether what he wore at the NATO summit at The Hague on June 24 was a suit. At the summit, Zelensky ditched his signature military-style sweatshirt for a black military-style black jacket, black shirt, and black pants, an outfit widely reported by several media outlets and an official Polymarket X account as a suit. While this reporting consensus should have typically led to the resolution of the market in favor of bets that Zelensky would wear a suit, the market is in dispute. Trending: New to crypto? on Coinbase. For one, some have taken issue with the unorthodox style of Zelensky's outfit. 'I dno [dunno] what kind of suit you wear but what the Z man worse [wore] is NOT a suit!' a user under the name 'Grinch' said on Polymarket's Discord. At the same time, others have pointed out that Zelensky wore a similar outfit in May, but the market resolved 'No,' suggesting it was not a suit. On the other hand, some have argued that individual opinions on whether or not it was a suit should not matter, citing the mass media coverage and the condition for resolution of the market. That condition reads, 'The resolution source will be a consensus of credible reporting.' Voices in this camp argue that the market only resolved "No" in May because there was no reporting far, two attempts to resolve the market in the affirmative on Universal Market Access have been blocked. UMA is a decentralized finance oracle and dispute resolution protocol partnered with Polymarket. The protocol allows token holders to vote on the truthfulness of assertions based on real-world data. The clarification from the second resolution attempt reads, 'At the time of this clarification, 09:33am ET July 01, a consensus of credible reporting has not confirmed that Zelenskyy has worn a suit.' This clarification has stoked manipulation claims. 'The June market must resolve Yes,' a user under the name 'vazelin' said on Discord. 'There is overwhelming consensus from global media, including Polymarket itself. If this resolves No like May, it damages trust.' The recent dispute raises questions about the fairness and reliability of prediction markets in nuanced situations. The dispute comes as Polymarket is reportedly close to announcing a $200 million raise that will see it achieve unicorn status. Polymarket has yet to return a Benzinga request for comment.
