/tip/ is full of LARPing faggots trying to dress like grandpas. They purposely wear boxy ill-fitting suits in ugly colors because they're LARPing as early 20th century people.
They freak out and bitch and moan when you post anything with color in a slimmer, tailored fit.
/tip/ is the worst thread on /fa/ and all of their advice is either retarded or super outdated.

I've relatively recently starting wearing them pretty much on the daily for work.

I got this one here which I'd be happy to recommend:

https://jonas-et-cie.fr/

I got another from SuitSupply. The fabrics and construction are nice, but you'll tend to run into other guys with the exact same suit, and the fit runs overly skinny.

[Anonymous No.15079715]

>>15079614
Which model suitsupply? Lazio or napoli? I also hate how short the jackets are

[Anonymous No.15079776]

>>15079715

Lazio-- though I find the jacket length fine honestly. For reference I'm (5'10/178) wearing R.

I just get the sense that it's cut tight like a shorter jacket, which leaves it draping not quite right. No harm in trying one on in-store if you live near one, but I'd be wary about ordering online.

Yeah the napoli is supposed to be a little more relaxed with wider shoulders - which is what I like. But I'm 6'1" so I'm worried I'm between a R and a L.

[Anonymous No.15079808]

An eye for detail here. This is an old photo; believe I'd tied it inattentively since I was trying stuff on.

[Anonymous No.15079829]

>>15079799

Looks like they give you roughly an extra two inches on jacket length for an L. Between about 31 and 32 inches from bottom of collar to bottom of the jacket depending on your size.

If you have a jacket with a length you like you can just measure it to compare.

Why do all trousers have belt loops? Belts look so awful, trousers are much nicer with side adjusters. Wish suitsupply gave you the option to choose side adjusters. I hate whoever brought this meme trend.

>>15080586
Navy or charcoal gray

[Anonymous No.15080728]

>>15080586
Navy or charcoal are really the only acceptable choices. ABSOLUTELY do NOT wear a black suit, basically ever, but not to an interview.
Don't wear those retarded slim shit suits and don't wear a suit that is too big, you'll look like a mess. Just get a suit that fits well. If your suit is RTW make sure it's adjusted to you and take it to a tailor if not. No collar gap, please, that looks so shitty and amateurish.
Notch lapels are pretty much obligatory, save peak lapels for another time. If you are wearing a belt (you shouldn't wear a belt with a suit, but if you do) make sure the leather color matches the shoes. Shoes with navy or charcoal can be brown, but preferably not a super light color or brown. Really light browns tend to look very causal. Black can be worn with both but tend to look better with charcoal, brown goes very nicely with navy.
Iron your fucking shirt, even if you're wearing a jacket over it, iron your fucking shirt. We can tell if you're wearing an unironed shirt. Shine your shoes, it really does make a difference and looks better.

Why the FUCK would you wear a linen shirt to an interview? You might as well not even go the interview since it's obvious you don't care. What country?
Wear a fucking cotton shirt you retard. Poplin or twill. Damn, even an oxford shirt would look better than showing up to an interview with a linen shirt.

[Anonymous No.15080763]

>>15079391
What's wrong with the shirt? There is absolutely nothing wrong with that shirt as it fits into that outfit. He's wearing a green suit, trust me, he's not trying to blend in.
I'll agree the break of the pants is too long in my opinion, but break is a taste kind of thing and not everyone wants to show off their ankles. But personally, I'd have them hemmed if it was me. Really, it's not the break that is the issue, it's the rise. He's wearing those pants really low which was kind of the trend at the time (a trend I'm happy is dying). If he wore his pants higher then the break would be higher.
Also, he should have worn socks. No socks really only looks appropriate with loafers. If you're wearing oxfords or derbies, you should wear socks. It looks sloppy without them.
I also think this fit would look a lot better if he ditched the belt. Belts just don't look that good with suits.
Overall though, I like this fit and think it's aged well. It just needs a few tweaks.

-If you're wearing a tie, button your shirt up all the way unless you've been wearing your suit all day and it's 4am at the bar

They aren't necessarily, because like the other anon said, you can choose a weight that suits your use case. That said, a three piece is going to be warmer than a two piece, and if you want a "heavier" fabric, you may run into issues with heat.

Jeans, depends on the color. A tie, not at all, frankly. Its a far better decision to just buy trousers or slacks and casual dress shoes.
