7. Match Suit Colors With Occasion

Your suit color says a lot about the occasion and your personal style:

Navy: Versatile, works for both work and weddings

Charcoal: Professional and mature

Black: Formal events or eveningwear

Light Grey/Tan: Casual or summer events

Pro Tip: First-time buyers should start with navy or charcoal—timeless and easy to style.

8. Avoid Common Tailoring Mistakes

Here are some blunders men make while tailoring:

Over-tailoring: Looks tight and uncomfortable

Short jackets: Trendy, but unflattering for many body types

Neglecting posture: Tailor with your natural stance, not stiff poses

Always do a final fitting session before your event to check comfort and movement.

Your shirt, tie, and shoes must complement the suit and your body proportions:

Shirt collar should fit snug but not tight

Tie width = Lapel width = Shoulder width (roughly)

Avoid bulky shoes with slim-fit suits

Not all suits can be saved by tailoring. If you’re:

Struggling to get the right fit off-the-rack

Wanting something truly unique

Dressing for a once-in-a-lifetime event

Then it’s time to go bespoke.

Bespoke vs Made-to-Measure:

While bespoke is pricier, the result is unmatched personalization and fit.
