Top 10 Rules for being sharply suited

I read an article a few months ago about the unspoken suit rules every man should know. So that they don't remain unspoken, I thought it would be beneficial to bring you my own top 10 of those rules.

Employing these top 10 rules will help you to remain sharp, sophisticated and down right trendy when wearing suits.

10:
When buying a suit off-the-rack, the most important thing is to ensure that the shoulders fit. Ill fitting suit jackets that sag below the top line of the shoulder is not going to look great nor sharp. Shoulders are the hardest to tailor, so mark sure they don't stick out or stick up.

The gap between the collar of your shirt and the jacket's lapels is a giveaway that you have an ill-fitting jacket.



9. Charcoal or Grey suits are more sharp than black. This is because greys and charcoals are more versatile and will look better with more colours. Not all men suit black either.

8. When wearing a 3 piece suit or just the waist coat with trousers, keep the bottom button of your waist coat unbuttoned. This provides a slightly more sharper look and fit and prevents bunching at the bottom.

7. Cuffs should be showing at least half an inch from the jacket sleeve. Not only will this show off your  masculine jewellery you have such as cufflinks and watches, it provides a more balanced look by matching the amount of collar visible at the back of the neck.

6. Make sure your tie is darker than your dress shirt. This allows a balanced contrast and draws the eye in the V shape at the centre of your chest giving a slimmer sharper look.



5. The hem of your trouser should touch right at the top of your shoe. This provides a fashion forward, sharp look. If you are looking for a more conservative look, the trouser hem should cover the top of the shoe and parts of the laces.

4. For a classic or vintage look, wear a matching waist coat and trouser with a slimmer tie. A brown tweet option would provide even more of a vintage look.

3. Always go for a classic windsor knot for your tie. Use the size of your head to determine whether you should go half or full windsor.

2. Matching the right coloured shoes with your suit provides a sharp and sophisticated look. This includes being the same colour as your belt. A simple guide for matching shoes and suits is outlined below.

1. For a particularly modern sharp look, choose a slim fit suit. Make sure that the back of the suit jacket has a double vent flap.
