Style isn’t about standing out — it’s about standing with purpose.
Once your jacket fits and your trousers fall just right, the true art of dressing begins in the details.
These finishing touches are what separate “a suit” from your suit.
Dare to Add a Waistcoat
Confidence is quiet — and nothing says it better than a three-piece suit.
A waistcoat adds depth, shape, and intention to your look.
It should sit just above your belt line (or slightly longer), laying flat without gaps or loose fabric at the sides.
Keep it buttoned up, leaving only the bottom button open — it gives structure while allowing comfort.
Think of it as the bridge between sharp and effortless.
Lose the Tailor’s Thread
Those loose stitches and temporary tacks? They’re meant to go.
Remove any extra stitching on your suit’s vents, labels, and pockets (except for the pockets you plan to keep sealed).
Leaving outer pockets stitched helps the fabric stay flat and refined, avoiding unwanted bulk.
A clean suit is a sharp suit — no extras needed.
Refine the Tie Game
The modern tie is sleek, not screaming.
Opt for slim silk ties in timeless tones — black, navy, or charcoal — with minimal patterns for a clean, confident finish.
Keep it neat: the tip of your tie should hit right at the waistband, never below it.
If you’re feeling bold, a tie pin adds a hint of personality — just make sure it’s no wider than your tie itself.
Carry Less, Move Better
A true gentleman doesn’t carry everything — just what matters.
Keep your essentials in your inner jacket pocket or a small card holder.
Leave bulk behind; let your jacket move freely.
If you need more, use a briefcase or slim backpack — practicality can still look polished.
Coordinate Your Leather
Your accessories should speak the same language.
Shoes, belt, and bag don’t need to match perfectly, but they should align in tone and texture.
For classic elegance, black leather remains king. For a relaxed edge, pair your tailoring with minimal white sneakers — clean, logo-free, and confident.
Because true style isn’t about excess — it’s about consistency.
