“Style is very personal. It has nothing to do with fashion.” —Ralph Lauren

#MotivationalMondays

The author is pretty clear that style relates to every person in a unique way. And it has no association with fashion, as it can fade away quickly. Whereas style cannot fade away; it stays with the person forever. 

Well, we agree with him! As a leading men’s couture in the state, we envision creating unique styles for every man we meet with. If interested, reach out to us!

Classic vs modern: which suit style suits you best?

Choosing one suit style that best suits a man is quite impossible. A man can look stunning and feel comfortable in different suit styles depending upon the occasion, style choices, venue, weather conditions, and a lot more stuff. However, in this short blog post, we would like to educate you about classic and modern suit styles, including the best time or occasion to wear them.         

Classic Suit Style for Men

Classic suits are traditional suits but not outdated fashion. It is a timeless suit style that most men prefer for comfort and simplicity. These are mostly single-breasted suits in two or three pieces. The fit is regular with enough looseness and lengthy blazers and trousers. Be it formal or informal occasions, these suits are common.  

When it comes to specifications, the colors are mostly subtle (gray, navy, blue, black, and white); the designs are checks or stripes; and the materials are cotton, linen, silk, and velvet. 

So, men who want to style in the most minimalistic style can choose these classic suits and play a safe game in front of the crowd.  

Modern Suit Style for Men

In contrast to classic suits, modern suits demonstrate a chic and fitted style. The chest is closely fitted, the blazer length is just right, the trousers are tapered, the breasts are double predominantly, and the waistlines are made to measure. Altogether, they give a perfect silhouette. But this doesn’t mean they are tight or uncomfortable to wear. These suits are structured and still cozy. 

Another differentiating feature of modern suits is that the blazers or jackets can match any pair of trousers, unlike in traditional suits wherein the blazers and trousers are always matching. Also, the colors are bold and stylish to go with the latest trending color palettes (pastel and vibrant); the designs are unique (florals, houndstooth, tartan, plaid, abstract, basket weave, dots, paisley, etc.); and the materials are exceptional (fresco, flannel, tweed, denim, mohair, cashmere, chambray, etc.). 

Therefore, men who are more interested in aesthetics and sophistication and want to grab the attention of the audiences can style with these modern suits, along with unique accessories.   

Which style do you choose?

Well, both the suits are special in their ways. And often, men find it difficult to choose between classic and modern suit styles. Thus, we’re here to help you with a checklist that every man has to go through before choosing a suit style:

  1. What is the occasion?

In the case of weddings, a velvet or silk-based modern-fit suit would work. In the case of formal events, a business-color double-breasted suit would work. 

  1. How about the venue?

Check if it is indoor or outdoor and choose light or heavy fabrics with two or three layers. 

  1. Are you a guest or a host? 

Of course, neither the groom, groomsman, or father of the groom nor the bride can style in a minimalistic way. They need to be special and hence specially tailored suits are recommended with minute details and adorable specifications. 

  1. Last but important—what are YOUR style preferences? 

Go with traditional suits if you like the looseness in them or prefer modern suits if you like to be presented chic.

Conclusion

The suit you wear is a reflection of your confidence and personality. So, choose wise suit styles, tailor them to your measurements, and flaunt them with a smile on your face!

Let’s know about men’s mirrored sunglasses.

#TeachingsTuesdays

These sunglasses are characterized by one-side mirroring through a thin film of reflective coating. This coating reduces the amount of light passing through the glasses and blocks the entry of harmful radiation, like UV from the sun. As a result, the wearer will not feel any glare. Also, it helps prevent eye infections or conditions. On the other hand, they look extremely stylish and smart.

“I’m not interested in making clothes that end up in some dusty museum.” —Marc Jacobs

#MotivationalMondays

Fashion designers strive hard to make clothes. So, unless a customer buys and wears them, the purpose and the efforts go wasted or unfulfilled.  As Jacobs says, the whole purpose of designing clothes is to wear and adore. If they are not convincing and balanced enough, there wouldn’t be anyone to buy and wear them. It will remain on the shelves forever. Well, kudos to the confidence in his designer clothes!
