Can I wear traditionally tailored three piece suits with braces and a high rise to a business setting while still being socially acceptable? If not, would a suit without the waistcoat but with the high rise look out of place? Is there any way I could make that work?

>> No.15105635

If you're handsome, probably.
If you're not, it's tryhard.

nothing wrong with a three peice suit, but it depends on how formal your company is. Make sure there's no pleats though. and I'd watch the rise to an extent.

A fat person looks fat no matter what he wears (although with that example he could conceal it better). I don't see how that would be different with a skinny person. I'm talking about tailored clothing here; it would naturally match the silhouette of the wearer.

Jesus, are you dense? You asked why verbody thinks only fat people like that stay and explain yourself that those are the people profiting the most from high rise.

Again, you can not wear high rise in any business envoirement and when you don't need a suit for work it will always look silly if you still wear one, especially vintage cuts.

Why do you say that only fat people benefit from high rise? I never said that. You came to that conclusion on your own. High rises look better on the vast majority of body types. It elongates the legs, and makes the waist look smaller in comparison with the shoulders. How does making an argument about the benefits of a higher rise on fat people disprove the benefits of a higher rise on leaner people. You are the one that can't follow an argument, not me. Work on your spelling. I can identify you as a poster by your consistent spelling and grammatical mistakes.

Yes, all people look better in it, but that's also why malformed will go out of their way to wear vintage to hide their bestiality. Are you a manlet trying to look taller? Not gonna work, you will be lil' caponne at best. Why do you want that suit? Surely not because you work in a suit envoirement, because that would disolve the whole reason for suits: to look alike.

Do you wanna larp because your life is shit? Go on, be my guest.

Do you just like the vintage style? Inplement it softer. Get high rise jeans instead of a suit and pair with a nice belt. Wala.

Anon was correct I'm not OP but I also have interest in vintage clothing. Why? Because it's simply much better made and with much better materials.
I'm a classical musician and mostly mix Yohji and vintage. Also a lot into old military clothing.

IMO the suit in the coming years will be worn much more because people WANT to wear it instead of because they have to. That's a due to as you have noted, the suit is barely required for professional fields these days.

Wearing suits for style is brainlet tier for men. You dress to the occasion. Wearing a tree piece with tie and cloth for fun is like playing pretend. You like the look becaue of what it's signalied, similarly how men wear lumberjack shirts. People without true life perspectives seek to fullfill their dreams in copying perceived positive realities from others ("How do I copy Drivers look?").

I sew many of my own cloths and actual vintage/ antique material isn't better, it's worse. It's only better if you compare it to fast fashion bullshit. Get a suit made out of natural fibers by a tailors hand and you will get even better quality, fit and style.

Also saying that it's barely requiered today is only once again showing that you never worked in any professional field to begin with. Just because you tendie dealer doesn't wear an armani suit, doesn't mean it's irrelevant. Just like being able to differenciate a desert knife of a menu one or being able to eat with a fish fork, wearing matching suits is a class divider and show off os social standing. Those only adapting it, will be clearly standing out while those knowing the subtle features will naturally line in. Such things will never become suitable for the masses, because the nature of the masses never changes. They only adapt pleb tier copies.

Man I don't know what you're on about.
Firstly the suit is getting more and more irrelevant and that's common knowledge. Why would you deny a fact? JP Morgan and Goldman Sachs already left it out.

Nowhere did I say wearing it for fun. I said many people recently start to wear a suit not because they need to but because they want to. If you think a suit is only for business than you are retarded.

>I sew many of my own cloths and actual vintage/ antique material isn't better, it's worse. It's only better if you compare it to fast fashion bullshit. Get a suit made out of natural fibers by a tailors hand and you will get even better quality, fit and style.
I don't care what you shit you sew but you obviously don't know what you're talking about.
Yes really high end coths are really good and super fine but in the low to medium- medium high the cloths and materials are simply too lightweight. Again there is no point in denying this. Almost every tailor acknowledges this.
There's a reason the 30s are universally refered to as the golden age of tailoring.

Nigger, vintage and antique cloths which survived that long and didn't have been orn out have been high end in their time. Common folk made their cloths out of fucking potato sacks, which later got made into apron, handkerchiefs and what not, leaving to no surviving medium range cloths. Confirmation bias.

And I am not talking about fucking plus high end either. A suit for 500€ isn't even that expansive, yet you can get it bespoken to your needs.
That's how much any good suit will cost or has been paid for in real value.

retard we are talking about suits not peasant clothing.
Also It will be long to explain but I also mean that fabrics in the 20s 30s had much more going to them. Much more experimentation, diffrend patterns and weaves. Pic related

A suit 500 euro is going to get you a fused 2 dimensional construction and will be shit. It's obvious it's you who doesn't get shit.
That is what my point is.
In the 30s everybody was wearing suits and there were no cheap ways to make something look "ok". You mostly paid for what you get. Also no artificial fabrics and cheap work arounds.
And because men's clothing was 99 % suits you could get good stuff not that expensive.

You absolute kek. That's the starting price for a linen summer suit, which doesn't take much. It wholly handsen not glued together like from the rack suits. Nice cope. A normal heavy cotton and silk suit will be at 700€ without any extras and antique ones weren't even lined in most cases, in soft fabrics, if at all.

Your 30s suit of the middle class was extraordinarily easy patterned and second hand from a richer guy as it was expansive. Most guys had one single suit, mended beyond recollection. YOu would know if you would have wathed some old crime photos. Buttons mssing, waists to tight, pants to short etc. The working class (the majority never had enought money for a new suit) Even the middle class had little and at best a sunday suit. What you are talking about are upper clas suits which so rarely got worn thatthey didn't get torn or which family didn't sew them into a womens two piece during the war due to fabric rationing. You are looking at aristocraic heirlooms, tard, no their time H&M suits.

A professional tailor will give you an even better suit, as he doesn't use workarounds and still gets better fabric and techniques.

>>15107475
They are only plain, because that's what is mostly worn. YOu still can get whatever fabric you like. Daily reminder, that those fancy vintage suits only can be looked upon as they have been soo rarely worn back in the day, that they still survived. Most of regular fashion didn't for a reason. Again confirmation bias.

Pic related are all patterns you can get in C&A on a regular basis for cheap.
