Adam Rustman is one of those men who likes to wear a suit even without a special occasion. In our article, he explains why a suit doesn't have to be the prerogative of only managers or guests at a wedding or rehearsal.
"Where are you going?" "Why are you so dressed up?" "Are you going to a wedding? A funeral? A rehearsal?" Every single time I put on a suit, I get these questions. I'm tired of answering them all the time, so the most sensible thing to do is write an article with the answers. I'll then dictate the link to every men's fashion expert and they can read it there...
...how uncultured it actually is. Namely, for reasons that I have already indicated in the past, and which we will certainly discuss in more detail at some point, a man in a suit is considered something unusual, even festive. It is our specialty, perhaps it is similar in some other Slavic countries, but we must realize that in most of the developed world a man in a suit is basically such a pleasant standard. And not only among corporate pawns or high-ranking managers. Personally, I have no problem dressing up even on a regular day, but today let's look at how to find the right balance between an overly shiny look and torn jeans, even in a jacket and tie.
A suit in a medium-light color would be ideal for this, not too dark, because we associate those with business or a holiday, nor too light, because those are quite striking. In this case, it is much better to blend in a bit with the environment, medium gray would certainly not be a bad choice, but I found a jacket and trousers in this nice sand color at Alain Delon. I intentionally write jacket and trousers, because they are sold separately and have slightly different parameters than the suit. The jacket has less padded shoulders and is not lined at the back, which is great in warm weather, by the way. The trousers are so-called chinos. I just ironed the buttons on them, you can work without them and the fastening is with a visible button.
Look relaxed even in a shirt
I would avoid white for the shirt, any other color, or ideally even a pattern, will again look light, everyday, less festive. This one with red stripes goes great with a brown suit, but blue shades would also work. As for the tie, it is of course optional, although in my opinion, this is where the one who knows is separated from the one who is overly cautious. With the tie, this outfit looks complete, dandy, but still everyday. On the other hand, I think the pocket square is very important, even more so if you have omitted the tie. It is a good option to break up the whole outfit. I hope I don't have to repeat that you choose a different color than your tie.Shoes are the right point
Shoes are also quite important in this case. We want something less formal than classic lace-up oxfords or derby shoes. If you don't know what they are, stay tuned, we will also deal with that in one of the next articles. So loafers will be better, as I chose. In short, these are shoes without laces, but still quite elegant.
Done. We've put together an outfit that you can wear anytime. Whether it's to the Italian countryside, like me, or to work, to church, to a bar, to a funeral. Well, not there. Anyway, a suit is a great outfit for every day. Every stylish day. You just have to put aside your worries and have some funny answers ready for the questions from the introduction.
