The feeling it elicits:
- Traditional
- Elegant
How to wear it for your body type:
Short: You will look fantastic in a slim cut vertical pinstripe suit. Keep the colors dark on the suit and pair the look with a brighter shirt underneath and classic styled tie.
Tall: Choose a pair of worsted slacks in a dark muted color like a charcoal, pair this with a slim cut plaid shirt.
Average: Try a dark wool belted waist coat. Pair this with slim cut worsted wool slacks.
Athletic: Wear a pair of slim cut slacks with a sweater in a natural wool fabric. Be sure the sweaters pattern remains conservative and traditional like the Fair Isle sweater featured above.
Heavy: Take advantage of all the vertical stripes featured in this look. Be sure to get a dark suit with very fine vertical stripes, (large stripes will make you look bigger). Pair this with a dark shirt underneath and a dark slim tie. This season we can do dark on dark on dark.
Thin: Wear a highly textured sweater (cable knit) in a dark color under a light wool coat. Pair this with some worsted wool slacks.
Additional Notes:
- Make use of dark muted colors
- Pin collars - a strong collar is very important in this look
- Tweeds
- Waist coats are rather prevalent in this look
- Tailored structure is very important - make sure the suit fits well
