Let's make it really easy. If we had to build a suit collection from the beginning the first one would be a navy blue suit which could be used in almost any occasion. The next one should be a dark grey suit. So, what two suits should a man own? No doubt, navy blue suit and dark grey suit. Those are the most professional colours but they can be worn in any event including most of the weddings.
Having these 2 basic suits on your wardrobe, it is time to decide based on your likings: pinstriped and checkered patterns, or continue with plain patterns but choosing lighter shades. Ask our fashion experts on our chat for a piece of personalized advice.
Based on its composition and its internal structure, a suit requires additional care. Can you machine wash a suit? No, it needs to be taken to laundry professionals so they can apply dry washing techniques. Can I iron my suit? Yes, you can. However, the most recommended way to take care of your suit is hanging it so it naturally loses the wrinkles, you can also press your suit at home. But be careful, it needs that you know how to do it. Always with a piece of cloth in the middle, flipping it inside out or using different temperatures depending on the fabric type, among others. How often should you replace suits? A made to measure suit is thought to last. If you take care of them, depending on the usage, and your weight does not change too much, it will be a garment that you should own for many years.
This is a question that will be automatically answered once you try on your first custom suit. But there are 2 main explanations: no off the rack suit will fit you like a custom made suit and your suit will be unique in terms of measurements, but also on its design. Nobody fits perfectly on a premade sizes, every( )body is different. And sometimes it can feel boring that the brands decide what is better for you: what kind of lapel, the limited amount of fabrics, the premade details. Take control of your style and find the perfect fitting at the same time. Choose a custom suit online.
