Buying Guide for Suits 

High-Quality Business Suit for a Professional Business Look

In the office, it’s generally advisable to wear suits in dark colors. These classic shades exude confidence and seriousness. As a nice alternative to black, you can opt for anthracite or dark blue, while lighter colors like light gray are more suitable for summer. The popular two-button blazer works well with a serious office look and leaves a positive impression on clients. Make sure the suit's fit isn’t too tight and allows for sufficient freedom of movement. Pair it with a white or light blue shirt or T-shirt and a subtly patterned tie in muted colors.

Suits for Weddings

For festive occasions, be mindful of the specified dress code. If there isn’t one, a suit is always a good choice. Dark suits combined with subtly pastel-colored shirts are suitable for formal events. For summer weddings, a light linen suit in beige or light gray is a great option. A matching pocket square and tie enhance the elegant look.

Depending on your body type, you may opt for a slim-cut, single-button blazer with a narrow lapel collar for a modern appearance at a wedding. Generally, you should match your outfit to the location. For an outdoor wedding, you can dress more casually, while in a ballroom, the suit should be more elegant. Here, you can also incorporate shiny details.

Exquisite Suits for a Glamorous Entrance at Opera or Theater Visits or Evening Events

At very glamorous events, a specific dress code like "Black Tie" is often required. If this look is needed, it’s recommended to wear a tuxedo. A tuxedo consists of a black, single-button blazer with a silk lapel. The suit pants usually have a black silk stripe along the side seam, giving the ensemble a refined appearance. A white tuxedo shirt with a concealed button placket and cufflinks should be worn under the blazer. This dress code also includes a black bow tie and a pocket square in black or white. For an even more glamorous look, a cummerbund should be added.

From Collar to Waistband: How Your Suit Should Fit

Collar: Ensure that the suit collar sits flush and without wrinkles. It should be tight enough not to stick out but not so tight as to cause discomfort.

Shoulders: The shoulder seams of the suit should align perfectly with your shoulders. Avoid excessive wrinkling or overly tight seams, as this affects the fit.

Sleeves: The suit sleeves should almost cover your wrists, leaving about a centimeter of shirt sleeve visible. This creates an elegant proportion and allows freedom of movement.

Chest: The suit should lie smoothly across the chest without fabric bunching or excess looseness. A slight stretching of the buttonholes when the blazer is closed is a sign of a good fit.

Waist: The waist area of the suit should be slightly tailored to accentuate your silhouette. Ensure there’s enough space for comfortable movement without the suit being too loose.

Waistband: The suit trousers should sit comfortably around your waist without pressing or sliding down. Use a belt or suspenders if necessary to ensure a perfect fit.

Trouser Length: The trousers should form a slight fold at the front over the shoe but not touch the ground at the back. Make sure the trousers aren’t too long or too short to achieve a polished look. The right trouser length ends about 2 to 4 cm above the shoe heel, depending on the width of the trousers.

Overall Fit – The Right Size: Your suit should allow for enough freedom of movement without being too wide or tight. Test various movements, like raising your arms or bending over, to ensure the suit fits comfortably and looks good.

By paying attention to these details, you can ensure your suit fits perfectly and gives you an elegant, professional appearance.

Detail-Oriented: Tips to Complete Your Look

Accessories: Choose appropriate accessories to add a unique touch to your look. A stylish wristwatch, a subtle tie, cufflinks, or an elegant briefcase can give your outfit a personal and appealing touch.

Shoes: Make sure your shoes are well-maintained and appropriate for the occasion. High-quality leather shoes in a classic color like black or brown give your look an elegant and professional finish. If a casual look is explicitly desired, you can pair your suit with sneakers.

Belt: A matching belt can harmoniously complete your look. Choose a belt that matches the color of your shoes and complements your outfit.

Pocket Square: A pocket square can add a touch of sophistication to your blazer or vest. Choose a pocket square in a matching color or with a subtle pattern, such as plaid, to give your look a refined edge.

Care: Ensure your entire outfit is well-maintained and fits properly. Iron your clothes carefully, check for clean seams, and remove loose threads. A neat and well-groomed appearance completes your look perfectly.
