How To Get Your Suit To Suit You: The Kings-men way

Ever heard of the Nigerian joke that describes a suit as a coat? This is usually when a suit has no fitting on a guy. Many events -- even religious settings -- demand the unspoken rule of wearing suits, and it would be a minus for a man not to know the basics of choosing a suit.
      There is a very slim line between classy and trashy when it comes to suits for men. Two things to bear in mind when you decide to join the evergreen generation are QUALITY and FIT.

Quality

When it comes to suits, there are no allowances for leniency with your pocket. You either go for something in the range of the best in quality or just let the thought of getting the suit relegate to your subconscious at best.

       

     Quality in this sense doesn't have to come with breaking the bank. Quality also takes note the color -- know the colors that work with your skin tone - as well as the fabric used for the suit. Ensure the fabric is of the best quality and not one that will look as old as time after a single wash. Always seek the services of an expert designer. if you have a friend whose suit choices are also impressive, seek his opinion.

Fit

This is the most important thing to keep in mind. You can spend your entire life savings on a suit, and that effort won't be worth a dime if the fit is the teeniest bit out of place. For fit, first, you have to decide what kind of suit you are going for, the number of buttons you are looking to work with and how much activity you are going to be involved in where you going.

   The Fit is finding a place that is not too tight or too loose. Here, keep in mind that you are working with something close to perfection. Your arms, chest, shoulders, torso are what you should be working strictly with when deciding on the suit that suits you best.

     The pants are also important as the jacket when choosing the right fit. Here, the length should be just right -- no hanging beyond the start of your shoes. Also, unless you are at a celebrity event, where there is more or less no formal dress code, figure-hugging pants for a suit is a no-no. Formal Nigeria is not there yet.
