Posted: Jul 06, 2009 | Comments: 0 | Views: 117 | Bookmark and Share

In them, men just can not go wrong. Whether you are going for any special occasion like party, ceremony or a business meeting, the most preferred attire for men is 'a suit'. Read on to know about the various styles of suits to cast that everlasting impression. There are three major styles of suit, named for the countries in which they originated, though it is now quite common to find all three styles in any country, as well as fusions of elements from one or more different styles. The first is the English style, typified by soft, unpadded shoulders, a long, hourglass body with a high waist, either double or single breasted, with two or three buttons and side vents. The second is the Italian, or sometimes Continental style, epitomized by a lightweight construction, squared, high shoulders, a short, close-fitting, single-breasted body, with two buttons and no vent. Rounding out the group is the America nor sack suit, a natural-shoulder suit with a straight and somewhat roomier body, three-buttons and a back vent.

Double Breasted Suits comprised of two sets of buttons, Single Breasted ones hold the basic style of formal suits included of two or three buttons in a straight line. A single-breasted suit has the advantage of making you look slimmer in appearance as well. Blazers, available in a plethora of colours, styles and patterns provide that rich look and a soft touch. Suits with little embroidery are perfect for Indian weddings. Classic Dinner Jackets with deep cut chests and broad lapels are another hot favourite. Whites are the blacks of today. Even with suits be fearless and wear bright colours as they are in this season. Collarless Brown suits, a colour avoided by many men, can be easily matched with earth tones from yellow to gold to tan colours.

Depending on the tone of your brown, combinations with maroon, cream, or even navy blue can be achieved. Summer's hottest styles bring together lightweight fabrics, soft textures and sharp details with most popular colour choices- white, light brown, bright orange, green and ivory. Subsequently, silk and lightweight cotton, linen and the occasional lightweight cashmere pieces are also well-liked choices amongst the fabrics for the season.

For summer fashion line in suits, go for aristocratic brands like Versace, Armani for the elegant pieces, whereas DKNY is well known for its sleek and modern sophistication. Gucci for combining ivory, white and tans, Armani for blending green, grey and even mulberry, Dolce and Gabbana for sexy and cutting edge pieces. Ralph Lauren offers very traditional in style and colouring including pinstripes. Exclusive brands like Baroni, Gianni Manzoni, Hilton, S Cochen, Giorgio Valantini, Jack Victor, and more for your stylish closet.

Always look for balance while teaming it up. Choose clothes that de-emphasize your extremes. If you are short, look for strong vertical elements: pinstriped suits, two-button jackets. If you are thin, choose a jacket with wider shoulders to make you look broader. If you have a heavier build then wear darker colours and go monotone. Narrow trousers give you a leaner and more structured look, best with single breasted blazers, while saggy ones compliment the double breasted. Contrast your shirts to your jackets and experiment with ties. On the odd day, go matching- say black from head to toe.
