Indeed, getting nominated for six awards itself is an achievement. So, why wouldn’t this singer fail to adorn himself in the most unique style possible? His metallic silver jacket and the matching skirt pants were truly exceptional. The button-up jacket was personalized with a high collar and the pants had layers of skirt over them. Together, the black buttons on the jacket, black shoes, a black dialed watch, and the jewelry made it a great ensemble.

Is there anything else that a man needs in the summer to accessorize other than a pair of sunglasses? Definitely, no. Sunglasses are essential when you go out on a sunny day. They protect your eyes from heavy winds, dust, pollution, and, most importantly, UV rays. Besides these functionalities, they also help enhance your overall look and feel.

Perhaps no one can forget this costume designer, who has won the Academy Awards for a maximum of eight years. So, when she says that dressing matters, she means it. The way you dress up and present yourself to others plays a major role in securing the opportunities you yearn for. So, if you’re still skeptical of how significant presentability is in terms of clothing and styling, reiterate her quote two or three times. You will get it!
You might think decoding suit terminologies is not necessary or out of the box. But if you’re to tailor your custom-made-to-measure suit at some point in your life, either for your wedding or for some important life event (personal or professional), knowing these terminologies will be of great use to you. Most importantly, these terminologies will change the way you look at suits or tuxedos and greatly influence your buying decisions.
Of course, we cannot cover all terminologies in one shot. So, in this short blog post, let’s explore only around ten important suit terms and their definitions in brief.
In simple words, this is the collar of suit jackets, coats, or blazers. These are formed by folding the front edge of the suit and sewing them at a particular angle. These folds are not functional; they are for aesthetic purposes.
These are button-like ornamental devices that help secure the shirt cuffs around the wrist for a perfect fit. They are made of wood or toned metal and pass through the button holes of the dress shirt. This is both a functional and aesthetic part.
It is the long piece of narrow cloth worn under the shirt collar that is tied at the front and extends up to the waist. Initially, it was used to cover the buttons of a button-down shirt. But now, the primary purpose has been redefined—to give a formal look and earn respect or self-confidence.
Also referred to as a tie-slide or tie-clasp, it is a rectangular-shaped functional part of the suit that holds together the necktie and the dress shirt. By clasping them together, men can avoid their neckties being flattered or flapped.
It is the vertical slit found on the rear end or backside of a suit jacket or coat. It extends from the bottom hem to a few inches in an upward direction. These vents help relax while in a sitting position without any restriction from the coat or the jacket.
A suiting canvas is a piece of cloth or material made of wool that helps give a proper structure or shape to the suit. It is loosely stitched to the jacket fabric and lies in between the outer jacket and the inner lining fabric.
Technically, this is the point where the trousers’ or pants’ silhouette breaks. Non-technically, this is the folded part that’s seen at the bottom hem of the trousers.
It is the position of the waist button on the suit jacket. Most standard-sized suits have a neutral button stance in which the button is positioned right at the waistline. While customizing the suit, it can go higher or lower.
As the name implies, the measurements of the suit are personalized for the wearer. However, the base of the suit remains the same. The advantage of these suits is their fitness.
Last but not least, it is one of the most important terminologies for fashion in general. Here, we will talk about the suit silhouette, which is nothing but the shape of the suit. It depends on the style, occasion, or theme of the event for which the suit is being tailored.

Love can get people crazy! But how about you? It is unnecessary that every groom has to find the best-in-the-world suits for their wedding and get dressed up like they never did before. It is also fine if the groom chooses a traditional black suit. After all, it is the smile that is going to impress your guests. In that case, wearing a three-piece suit in a black blazer, navy blue trousers, and a black waistcoat with a black bowtie and white pocket squares would do all the talking.
