Men Suit To Fit Your Body Type

Being too tall, short or too bulky doesn't mean that all suits would look awkward on you. That only happens when you do not really know what exactly you need to look for when shopping for a new men suit. Here are some tips and advices, some Do's and some Don'ts you should pay an attention to, when buying your next suit. With our advice you will look much smarter and more sophisticated than in any suit you bought before.

Tall men:

If you are quite a tall guy, then there is a definite NO to pinstriped men suits. Choose checks or windowpanes. If you are a fan of vertical stripes and don't want to change it, then try to look for the suits with a wider stripes.

Better to choose heavier fabrics, such as flannel or tweed.

Never ever wear your jacket unbuttoned. That will not look good on you. Sometimes it is much better to take it off completely, rather than leave it unbuttoned. That visually makes your body look even longer than it actually is.

Pay attention to jacket lapels. Look for a wider ones, although make sure that lapels are not too wide, to avoid your shoulders look very broad.

It is strongly recommended to wear cuffed suit pants. Also the cuffs should be at least one inch and a half.

Short men:

Here is a completely opposite situation to tall men. No horizontal lines on a jacket. Opt for vertical, like a pinstriped suit pattern.

Go for a lightweight fabric. Otherwise, heavy fabric would look like it is pressing you to the ground. So try to avoid flannels and tweeds.

To look a bit thinner and taller, you are advised to go for darker color men suits. Light colors suit tall men better, to visually make them shorter. Single-breasted suit jackets is a green light for you, avoid double-breasted jackets.

No cuffed pants. Or at least try to make those cuffs as narrow as possible.

Bulky men:

If you are considering yourself heavy or bulky, then you most certainly know how difficult it is to find a suit that fit really well.

Here are some tips...

When it comes to the suit pants, you should always remember to wear them at your waistline or a bit higher than that. Never wear pants lower than your actual waistline, as that makes your legs look shorter.

Suit fabric should be light and the pattern should be either plain or with vertical lines. Horizontal lines would make you look wider. So better to stay away from them. Go for dark colored single-breasted men suits. Say a massive NO to double-breasted jackets. That will never compliment the bulky figure.

Hopefully, knowing all those small but helpful tips, choosing your next suit will be much easier. And the suit you choose will compliment all the good parts of your body and hide the ones you would like to stay in a shadow. Good luck to you!
