How To Wear A Mens Suit
Wearing a suit correctly is a very important skill for every man. It is a fairly easy task once you know what you´re doing. Below we will instruct you on everything you need to know about wearing a suit.
- Collar - Collars should fit so that a quarter inch of your dress shirt is showing while standing. This will ensure that your dress shirt is not engulfed when you sit down.
- Shoulder Pads - The shoulder pads should have your shoulders gently sloping down in a natural way. Men with large shoulders will need less padding than men with narrow shoulders.
- Armholes - The armholes on the jacket should be high enough that you can raise your arms over your head without having the jacket dramatically ride up on your face.
- Sleeves - Your Sleeves should be short to the point that a half inch of your dress shirt sleeves are showing, but not more.
- Buttons - The bottom button should never be buttoned - even when standing. Leaving this button fastened will lead to it ripping off when you sit down.
- Slacks - Slacks should sit at the waist rather than the hips and should fit nicely at the crotch without too much extra room.
- Pant Legs - Pant legs should flow smoothly down the legs without any bulges. Thin men may have to get the legs taken in while larger athletic men may have to have pants specially made.
- Cuff - The bottom of the pant legs should rest gently at the top of the dress shoes with a break of your choosing
