Quality. When I was buying, I tended to like Italian and American styling.
I spent responsibly, but with purpose. I wanted to be wearing the best suit in the room.
I am still wearing them today–10-15 years later. (Three inch lapels, 1 1/2 cuffs)
It made its impression as I expected.

I never, ever see men of any age–certainly the age of consent–wearing such ridiculous suits and their sizing ‘el errors’. The illustrations of Paul have it right. Take your cues from him.

It wont matter how slim you are, you will look like you are wearing a suit you cant afford to replace.
No offense Alternative Lifestyle Designers, just making the obvious point that the suit your Great Aunt bought you @ 14 to make your first impression with her friends at the local IHOP breakfast, six years ago, needs to be upsized to fit you today.

As I can read in this new article you write again about tuxedos for wedings. I think that’s an habitude only applied in America, because as I wrote in your former article, in Europe tuxedos aren’t proper for ceremonies, just for parties. Well, a matter of habitudes. In this part of the world always suits or white tie, never tuxedos, but in Colombia or Venezuela their national suit, the liki-liki is perfect for a wedding. A country, a use. Things are like that…

Best regards.

I would like to add that being able to dance is a great way to meet people. I mean the classics like foxtrot, waltz and box step. If you want to learn an easy all purpose dance, may I recommend salsa? New York style where the step is not front to back. This dance step will go with any music, just change your tempo.

I have attended wedding receptions where people at other wedding parties came to the door just to see that tall guy dance the foxtrot with that girl he just met.

Learning to dance will complete the image of class and taste that is heralded by the outfit one is in. And It’s a great way to impress a lady .
