how do i pull off the collared shirt under sweater? whenever i try it i just look fucked up

[Anonymous No.11568269]

I often wonder this too. I've only barely gotten to work. It seems especially hard if you actually want the sweater to fit and not be really loose.

The only thing I cant think is that you have to get form-fitting shirts and slightly looser sweaters. Still, I feel like it's easy to end up with weird lumps of shirt under the sweater as soon as you raise your arms. None of my clothes fit that well though, so I guess I need to get measured by a professional and get new shirts.

It works better with casual shirts than with dress shirts. Also the sweater should be pretty tight. Other than that I don't know what can go wrong when trying to pull this look off. Can you post a picture of you wearing it?

High rise pants and shirts that both fit well, are properly constructed and of good quality materials.

You can see in your pic how the shirt looks extremely cheap due to how stiff and ugly the collar looks. Doesn't help that the sweater is the only thing that fits well and looks good in that pic either.

Should the sweat be tighter than the shirt or looser?

Looser, but really, it just comes down to both fitting well - not being overly slim nor baggy.

Very simple, should be one of the easier fits to pull off and more important ones if you are a young professional imo.

Close fitting, thin sweater, especially gray or any neutral color, jeans, and shirts without huge collars. Jeans and brown shoes/belt is a classic combo.

Another example. Don't recommend bright, colorful sweaters unless you are black or a fag.

[Anonymous No.11568625]

Another example, thicker sweater.

You can see how tight, cheap and ill-fitting everything on the first three images when you compare them to something that actually looks good and where everything seems to fit well.

As long as the shirt and sweater both fit nice, and the sweater fits a bit looser than the shirt you should be fine. If you still look like shit it's probably your body

If the collar is smaller and naturally sits above the neckline of your sweater it's going to look sloppy more easily

a spread collar or one that's slightly longer (at least not one of those really small ones) will work better

ok, so... HOW do you get shit to fit right?

afaik, you buy the shirt for the shoulders and sleeve holes, then tailor chest, waist, and sleeves. or get lucky af with some brand that fits you like magic.
pants, you buy for... the crotch? I've been buying them by the waist, and then hemmed them, but the right process is probably to buy the crotch and raise, and have the waist taken in, isn't it?

1. Be lucky and have RTW items from certain brands fit you perfectly. For me, when it comes to trousers that have a high waist and are made for tucking in your shirt, I buy PT01. Fits perfectly right from the go.

2. Find something that fits well, that just needs a few alterations. Like you say, for shirts shoulders are the most important part. For pants, your waist is the most important part that needs to fit well. Also recommend buying trousers that come in raw length, makes it easier to hem them without them looking like shit aftwards.

3. Go MTM/bespoke. Luxire is a good alternative to more traditional places, as the prices are quite low.

I'd personally try to avoid alterations as much as possible. When you alter a lot, it can start to look like shit, and I've ruined several pairs of pants before I learned my lesson.

If you take off the sweater it should be easier to remove
