Mecky Posted November 21, 2012 Posted November 21, 2012 Rule number 1. Never try to be like anyone else. Why try to fit in when you can stand out?
gnvqsos Posted November 21, 2012 Posted November 21, 2012 I usually buy new Paul Smith every two years with a continental brand in the other years,something like a Louis Ferraud or Paul Simone
aelfheah Posted November 21, 2012 Author Posted November 21, 2012 Navy blue suit with light grey/pale blue shirt and brown tie is quite popular at the moment. Avoid wide pin stripes, not really in. Cant go wrong with a classic charcoal grey suit and white shirt. Can wear most kinds of tie without a colour clash. I always think double cuff shirts with classy not tacky cuff links look smart. Thanks guys for the advice- I always am myself, but am clueless about which suits are 'laughed at' these days generally, especially as in my new job I'd be hoping to make a 'good impression'?
regatta Posted November 21, 2012 Posted November 21, 2012 Barney Goodmans was the place to get a suit, nowadays people must go to Barney Rubbles the way they look.
WeX Posted November 21, 2012 Posted November 21, 2012 Think Rat Pack - style is temporary, class is permanent. what he says!!! dont buy a trendy suit, otherwise within a few months you will look like a work experience kid. buy something classic, they never go out of fashion.
S10mainly Posted November 21, 2012 Posted November 21, 2012 What he says twice over!! It would be cheaper to get a decent bespoke suit rather than trying to keep up with fashion - A bespoke one might look like it fits too
neepsendlane Posted November 21, 2012 Posted November 21, 2012 Barney Goodmans was the place to get a suit, nowadays people must go to Barney Rubbles the way they look. Still wearing mine and as good as new.
regatta Posted November 21, 2012 Posted November 21, 2012 Still wearing mine and as good as new. Made to measure, pick your own material, that's the way to do it. Plus if looked after they last. Off the peg suits buttons come off straight away and the suit falls apart in no time because the manufactures use nylon stitching.
