As a fashion designer I always get this question a lot. How should a suit fit?

If you want to look sharp, smart and put-together then you need to pay attention to the finer details of suit wearing.

 But don’t you worry! Read our ultimate suit wearing tips below so that you can dress to impress and walk into a room allowing your presence to be felt.

I’ll help you get it right.

1. Shoulders

Remember that the seam of your shoulder should end where your shoulder ends, and any padding or rigid structure that adds so much as a millimeter of unnecessary shape will throw the whole thing off balance.

2. Waist

The guys wearing pants that sit a few inches below a pronounced beer belly? They're not fooling anyone—in fact, they're only drawing attention to the extra pounds. The waist of your pants should always sit about two inches below your navel.

3. Sleeve

Make sure that there is nothing billowy about how the jacket frames your biceps—the best jackets today follow the natural contours of your upper arm, and if you've got chicken wings, a tailor can likely take in the fabric. The sleeves should stop where the arm ends and the thumb begins.

4. Legs

Slightly roomier in the thigh and slightly tapered below the knee.

5. Jacket Length

Try to wear your jacket should stop at your knuckles or around the bottom of your zipper.

6. Trouser Length

Are those your ankles we see? No? Good. Always wear your trouser below your ankles or may cover your ankles. Make sure that your socks are long enough that there’s no exposed leg when sitting down

7. Belt:


Your belt should be fairly thin and the same color as your shoes.
