Those who wear
improperly fitted suits may hear this insult: "Are you wearing that suit
or is the suit wearing you?" The secret to wearing a suit is buying the
right suit for you, which means getting the best suit you can afford,
then paying to have it tailored.
Method 1
Tailoring Your Suit
-
1Ensure that when you are standing in the jacket, a 1⁄4 inch (0.6 cm) of shirt collar is exposed above the suit collar. The jacket will ride up when you sit, and if the collar is too big, your shirt collar will disappear under it.
-
2Measure the jacket sleeves so a 1⁄2 inch (1.3 cm) of your shirt cuff is exposed.
-
3Look at the shoulder pads to make sure they are gently sloping downward. If you have big shoulders, you should have smaller shoulder pads than the average man.
-
4Raise your arms over your head while wearing the jacket. If it rises up enough that it looks comical, you need to have the armholes adjusted.
-
5Use a mirror to make sure that your jacket isn't too short. It should just cover the top of your rear end.
-
6Check your pants. They should sit at your waist, not your hips. They should not be roomy in the crotch, but they should not be snug either.
-
7Adjust the width of the pant legs so they hang without any bulges. Muscular men may need to have their pants specially made.
-
8Hem the pant legs so they rest on the tops of the shoes with a small break in the crease.
Method 2
Wearing Your Suit
-
1Never button the bottom button of your jacket. When you sit down, unbutton the jacket so it doesn't ride up.
-
2Wear your suit with a quality dress shirt, belt, shoe and watch. Wear good socks that match the pants in color. If you're feeling brave, wear patterned socks such as argyle, but only if the other parts of your suit are conservative in color and style.
-
3Tie your tie in a standard or Windsor knot and make sure it partially covers your belt buckle.
-
4Add a pocket square. Fold it so it fits snugly in the pocket and just peeks out of the top.Source : wikihow.com
