A suit is a set of garments made from the same cloth, usually consisting of at least a jacket and trousers. Lounge suits, which originated in Britain as country wear, are the most common style of Western suit, according to Wikipedia.
A wedding suit is tailor made for men on their big day. Like the wedding dresses, it comes in different styles and colours too.
Here are a few rules you can follow if you want to look like the perfect prince charming on your wedding.
1. Fitting
No matter how expensive a suit is, it won’t look good if it’s hanging off your shoulders. Ensure you get a good fit. Short sleeves and high leg trousers are not allowed.
2. Let Your Suit Speak Passion And Life
Confidence is a thing but refrain from looking boring as much as you can. Make a statemen with your suit. Glen plaid pattern is not a bad idea.
3. The Waistcoat Is Your Friend
The waistcoat is spot on for the stylish groom. Cut close to the body and hemmed to the belt line – just perfect!
4. Sit With Care
It is important to unfasten your jackets when you sit.
5. Double Breasted Jacket
Do not fasten the bottom button of a double-breasted jacket except it has only a single row of buttons.
6. Be Careful With Accessories
Floral buttonhole, pocket square handkerchief and cufflinks is just it. Leave your big, bulky watch and rings at home.
7. Fabric is King
The fabric you choose should be dictated by the time of year and expected temperatures.
8. Don’t Miss Out On The Fit Test
Your jacket should be able to fit a fist between the cloth and your chest. Of course, you want to breathe easy on your big day.
9. Lining Depicts Quality
A good suit jacket will feature a fully-lined interior, and this is an easy way to add a flash of colour or reveal a little of your personality. Statement stripes, vibrant hues and on-trend patterns are also in line.
10. Detail is Key
A flower loop, hand stitched sleeve lining, hand finished interior pocket, vented pleat and a hidden pocket – the perfect storing place for those wedding bands.
These details are equally important on your suit. If you obey most of these ‘Wedding Suit Rules’ you are sure to look eccentric on your wedding.
