The acquisition of a new suit does not start in the store, but in your head. Is it a work suit? For a date night? For your friend's wedding? Write the three things? If you know these things you will make the right choices, starting with the color.

Colour 

- Gray: If you buy the first suit, this will be your starting point. A charcoal gray, very simple, combined with anything and you can take it anywhere. It is the standard suit. In general, it is impossible to go wrong with it.

- Blue: The pedrigrí is dark blue, but can also be a shade of blue a little brighter, a little more intense. And indeed it is what to do with anything that combine: will bring a little more intensity.

- Brown: The brown color is an element of surprise. A brown suit is excellent to complement a collection of costumes and shapely.

- Black: It is not as foolproof as believe. You may think you look like a member of The Strokes when in fact you seem security guard, unless you you integrate certain elements unmistakably rock-star.

Define your attitude

You have two options. With the flap open , classical notch , no room for errors , you know what to expect. Peak lapel is more formal and more striking: it is projected outward and upward , pointing toward your shoulder.

Make sure you set this thing as it should

When you buy a dress in a store, find the perfect outfit is actually a myth. However , you can come close to this ideal if you know what to adjust and point out where the fitting room mirror , so that the tailor can fix it.

- Arms : Must wrap your legs and allow about 1.2 cm cuff sneaks . But not obsess , because any tailor will immediately detect the correct length and if the arms of the bag are too wide .

- Waist : About 2.5 cm below your navel.

- Hems: Most of the costumes are bought in stores have just basted hem, so you can not buy a suit premiere today and tomorrow. Ask the tailor to the adjustment to the legs just rub the top of your shoe. Moreover, he asks if the store offers this service for free.

- Flaps: With the buttoned jacket, the collar should lie on your chest. If bulge or a space between the jacket and the collar is formed, perhaps ... need another size or brand.

- Shoulders: The tailor can not fix a prominent shoulder, so make sure the shoulder seam where it ends just get your own shoulder. Most people overestimate their size bag. If you think you are size 42, try on the 40th.
