You'll regret a shawl lapel

Just do a thin peak lapel and don't go overboard

OP won't regret medium width shawl lapel or peak lapel, you will probably regret thin shawl or peak or wide shawl. You'll regret notch no matter what.

Kinda regretting...
Purchase brooks brothers suit as I had a 50% off card.
Came out to about $550 tailored (still getting tailored)
Im a skinny 19 year old and scared that the pants will be too wide.
Can i get them slimmed a bit or will that look horrid?
Also what shoes would you guys recommend?

Pants will not be too wide. Skinny pants are going out of style and suit pants should be wider than casual pants anyway so the material can drape and create a straighter line.

>> No.11163095

even if youre skinny af/kinda tall?

>> No.11163136

>>11163095
Skinny and tall still needs the pants to be straight lines instead of crumply and skin-tight. The pants can be slimmer than on regular people, but they still shouldn't be so slim that they lose the lines or pull the front and back creases flat.

>> No.11163188

>>11161429
Because you're 18 years old and should buy a suit you can use professionally instead of some one-off nonsense you'll never wear again.

Get a good dark navy or charcoal suit that fits you well. Wear it to prom. Take it with you to college. Problem solved.

I bought a fillipa k one-button blazer for prom 2 days ago
plan on wearing it with a light-blue hawaiian shirt and acne "tracksuit" trousers.
For accesories I'm gonna wear a necklace with a palm tree. I'm also thinking of wearing a flower in my pocket, but I don't know if it'll be too much of a hassle, or if the flower will stain the jacket.
The thing I'm most unsure of, is the shoes. I really want to wear my slp chelseas because le heroin chic, but I know that I'm gonna get drunk af, and I don't want them to get ruined. My other option is my really beat up cp's, which actually would fit the kinda sleazy aesthetic pretty well, but it's still wearing sneakers to a formal event...
thoughts?

also pic related is the GOAT suit jacket

I'm pretty content with the fact that we don't have prom in where I live and instead we have a ball for those who ascend to the last year of their studies and thus become the eldest at the school. It was all white tie and pretty satisfying since the absolutely worst dressed guy was at least wearing a suit while the rest of us had morning dress or tail coats on.
