Look your Best in Men's Suits made for You and Your Needs

(George Pettit). Submitted on Mon, 19 Jul 2010

The fashion world of mens suits can be very confusing to you if this is your first time buying one, and yes, every man should own one good quality suit, if for only weddings, funerals, and other important occasions. On the other hand, if dressing up is necessary for your new job, it's important to choose durable fabric and a look that is in agreement with the reputation of your company. Since no one gets a second chance to make that first impression and also since this is going to cost you some money, choosing the best fitting, most appropriate, all-season suit that will last through extended wear is important.



When it comes to fabric, men's suits can be found in linen, cotton, polyester, polyester/rayon blends, wool, and wool blends. The advantages to linen and cotton are that these suits are lightweight and great for hot climates. The problem is that they tend to wrinkle easily and don't travel very well. Choose dark colors because staining is also an issue, and expect to use your dry cleaning services more frequently. While polyester, microfiber, and other synthetics are not really fashionable at this time, they can be very useful in a blend. Wool and wool/silk/polyester/rayon combinations seem to offer the most durability and comfort. As a natural product, wool "breathes" making it comfortable in most temperatures. While it is possible to buy tweed or flannel wool suits, these are very warm and not necessarily for heavy-set men. Worsted wool, such as gabardine, is considered mid-weight, very durable, and stylish as well, a great choice for your only suit or for one that will see a lot of daily wear.

For an entirely appropriate look in mens suits, how they fit you is really important, as are your accessories. Single-breasted, 2-3 button styles can be worn by any man. Just remember to leave that bottom button undone. Double-breasted suits are more for the slim and trim crowd, as are ventless backs. American standard cut suits fit the average man; full cut suits have more room at waist and give a slightly more classic look; European cut suits taper at the waist for a slim trim look, assuming you already have that build. Stick with a solid blue or white shirt, a nice conservative, striped silk tie, and you will be presentable anywhere.
