Tips On Choosing A Suit Designer

Determining which suit designer is best for you is a necessary skill in this day and age. The media tells us what to eat, what to drink, and even what to wear. However, sometimes we need to take a step back and do what is right for us.

I wrote this article to teach you everything you need to know about the basics of buying a designer suit. Use the knowledge contained below to make your next suit buying purchase more satisfying than ever.

Suit Designers always start their designs at the lapels and shoulders. They will add large width lapels to vintage suits, medium width to contemporary, and narrow width to newer designs.

The man with a medium build has more choices than the thinner and larger builds. The only word of caution is to get a suit jacket with a shoulder that has a natural looking padding to it. Suits to consider are Mantoni, Zanetti, and Coppley.

Large men need to look into getting broader lapels and lightly padded shoulders. Suits to consider are Haggar, Bill Blass, and Perry Ellis. These designers provide a nice lineup for the over sized man.

Slim men need to look into a more urban look with streamlined shoulders and lapels. Designers that provide this look include: Michael Kors, Kenneth Cole, Jones of New York, and Sean John. Wear these suits to enhance your overall appeal and give you a more aggressive look.

The styles of suit pants usually vary dramatically from designer to designer. Wide lapels usually go with double pleats while medium sized variations go with single pleats. Thinner lapels usually have no pleats at all and remain flat fronted.

The thin man should always wear a pair of pants with a flat front and no cuffs. This will show off his legs rather than hide them behind pleats. Pockets should be slit pockets with no button flaps.

Medium sized men have a choice between going with pleats or flat fronted pants. The best tip is to choose a pant style that matches nicely with the jacket.

The big man needs to wear something that draws more attention to the suit than the leg inside. Pleats and double pleats are perfect for covering up larger than normal legs.
