  1. Off The Rack Suit guidelines

  2. How to Buy One? There are more than a few things that need attention when you are out to purchase an off-the-rack suit. Let’s take a look. Fabric When it comes to suits, always remember – fabric comes before the design. Therefore, this is the first element that you need to decide, when planning to order a bespoke suit. Many people prefer pure wool, as the fabric is warm and completely natural. Moreover, it is wrinkle-resistant, lasts long, and contrary to popular notion, can be worn throughout the year, owing to its moisture-absorbing ability. Worsted wool is a suitable option if you are choosing the material for your first suit. Famed ones like the Super 100 or Loro Piana super 130s four seasons made of wool have many more twists than the 60-80 twist wools. Thus, going for these is a sure way to attain pure elegance.

  3. Single or Double Breast The main difference between double- and single-breasted suits is that a double one folds over itself at the front, which is not the case in a single-breasted design. Double-breasted suitsgive a more formal look; however, that does not restrict you from wearing these over a pair of jeans. At the end, it is your discretion, and the ease with which you can carry the pairing.

  4. Sleeves and Arms For starters, the length of sleeves should neither cover your shirt entirely nor reveal it too much. The sleeve should expose half to one inch of your shirt’s cuff. This gives you a classy look for sure. In addition, the arms of the suit should be loose enough to not restrict your movement.

  5. Collar, Waist and Buttons Collar is as important as any other part of your suit. It should touch your neck just the right way – without buckling or fighting with your shirt. The waist should nicely fit across the stomach. As far as waistcoat is concerned, it is better to go for a 2-button jacket as it usually suits all occasions, though 1-button jackets also look good on those with a lean body.

  6. Pants – Waist, Pleats, Cuffs and Rise A comfortable waistline allows you to put two fingers in it while you have the trousers on. Pleats may be a personal preference; however, lean people should avoid them, as pleats look good on people with large tummies. Cuff less pants are better for short people as they make them look taller. As far as the rise of your pant is concerned, it should neither be too high nor too low.

  7. Last Words The definition of a perfect suit may vary from person to person – depending on the choice of fabric, design, buttons and other elements. Regardless, in all cases, your suit should complement your persona, besides being in line with quality and style benchmarks.
