Style Tips,Fashion Tips & DRESSING TIPS

Thinking about “What to wear” & worried about tie knots?, Read these fashion tips & style tips to make an impression.

Shirt:

Your dress shirt should complement the suit and not just in terms of color. The narrow lapels of the jacket demand a narrow-collared shirt. If wide lapels are your style then wear a bold spread collar that can stand up to them.



Tie:

Tie Knots are very important.Your ties should always be perfectly knotted, with a single notch or dimple and with the point hitting the middle of your belt buckle. Pay attention to your tie knots.



Jacket:

If the lapels bow or the jacket creases when you button up, then your suit jacket is too small. It should lie flat against your chest. The back of the collar must be smooth with no visible rolls or creases, and should not bunch up. You should be able to cup your fingers around the bottom of the jacket.



Sleeves of the Suit:

Your suit sleeves should reach the crease of your wrist. The cuffs should show a quarter inch to a half inch past jacket sleeve.



Shoulders:

The suit’s shoulders should hug yours. The shoulder pads should not protrude beyond your own shoulders.
