How To Wear A Suit Made Easy
Knowing how to wear a suit will immediately give a man an edge over his competitors. This can include job interviews, sales presentations, and even getting a date.
Shoulder slope is the first area a man should look at when considering his suit. Shoulders should have a gentle slope which enhances your figure. Men with larger shoulders should use less padding and men with narrow shoulders should have more padding.
Another area men need to pay careful attention to is the fit of the jacket at both the waist and the chest. A properly fitting jacket should allow for about two inches at the chest and should make the stomach look trim.
The next next that should be considered is the actual style of the jacket. Men that are in great shape should wear suits that accentuate this and men who are in poor shape should wear suits that hide this fact. A good rule of thumb is that if you are fit, less is more.
Pants seem to be easier to choose than the jacket, but there are a few rules a man should follow. Firstly the pants should fit around the waist without the need for a belt or pair of suspenders. The waist of a pair of suit pants can be easily taken out or in by a good tailor; never settle for anything less than perfection in this area.
Next a man’s pants should not be too snug or too baggy at the legs. Stand in front of a mirror and make sure the pants drape correctly from your hips to your ankles. When walking around your pants should feel comfortable. If the pants bunch at the knees when you are walking, the pants are too tight. When the pants make a swishing sound as you walk, the pants are too loose.
Mens pants should end with a slight break at the shoes. This means that the pants should touch the shoes but should not go more than an inch or two beyond that point.
