Men wear suits, but a CLASSY MAN knows his suit, and the right accessories to go with it. In this style class, we'll be discussing the proper way to suit up ;).
A suit comprises of a jacket, a waistcoat (for a three piece suit) and trousers. It is usually worn with a shirt, a tie (bow or straight), cuff links, boutonnieres or pocket squares. Let us define them:
1. THE JACKET: The suit jacket is the most important part of the suit and it has to FIT. a man should endeavor to know (and wear) his suit size otherwise the outfit becomes a joke.
Guess who? He's now a classy man by the way.
2. THE TROUSERS: Your trousers must fit too (fitness is key) and the colours you decide to use go a long way in how classy you look.
3. THE SHIRT: The shirt determines the colour of jacket that goes on it, sometimes reverse is the case. The shirt is sometimes replaced with a vest, a sweater or skipped totally. ;)
4. THE WAIST COAT: This is not necessary, it's rarely worn by Naija men due to our hot weather. It can be worn as a jacket or with a jacket as a 3 piece.
Hint: The classy man knows the importance of little and big details when he is 'suiting up'. The colours must not be more than 3/4, they must compliment each other and your skin colour. The suit must not be bulky in any part, little accessories like the boutonniere or pocket squares make you stand out.
