Written by admin on July 31, 2010 – 11:53 am -

Gentlemen, a wedding invitation arrives from someone important - perhaps from your boss, a favorite cousin, or worst of all, an old flame. You've got to go, and you've got to look good. There's no need to panic, say local style experts. Here are their top tips. Read the invitation. It provides important clues to planning your attire. Note the location and time of day.

Things to Consider When Buying a Summer Suit

Written by admin on June 22, 2010 – 7:01 pm -

Construction Same deal as with cars and watches: It's what's inside your suit jacket that counts the most, and for summer you want to avoid any padding or lining that might prevent your body from breathing. For maximum comfort, go completely unlined with the likes of this Zilli suit. Cloth Look for lightweight wools or some blended variation thereof — e.g., the wool-and-silk weave of this Brioni suit. Wool is usually weighed in ounces, and weaves in the seven-to-ten-ounce range (with seven being lighter and thinner) hit the summer sweet spot. You should also pay attention to the so-called super number (e.g., this suit's super 150 designation), with a higher number indicating finer, lighter-weight cloth Color If your job entails going from... more

How To Wear A Double-Breasted Suit

Written by admin on March 12, 2010 – 11:49 pm -

By Michael A. Lubarsky The cookie-cutter two- and three-button suits are great for everyday wear, but there is no comparison to the swagger of a double-breasted suit. The glamour and heritage of the overlapping suit jacket is the quintessential gentleman’s style. Yet, the double-breasted suit is disappearing from many stores, in another sign that menswear trends have moved too far toward the casual and pedestrian. This may be partly because so few men actually know how to wear the double-breasted suit. This is a shame, because a simple two-button sack suit is far less comfortable.

Fashion Tips For Tall Men

Written by admin on March 12, 2010 – 11:44 pm -

By Maggie Kalogeropoulos Sure, tall men might be good at reaching the top shelf or making that slam dunk, but when it comes to style those with plenty of height to spare face a different set of fashion challenges than others.

And what better place to turn to for fashion tips for tall men than the NBA? Former NBA players and uber-tall fashion experts Jalen Rose and Allan Houston, gave us the lowdown on how to dress your bigger build. What... more
