Men Jackets Alterations – STYLE ADVICE FOR MAN – JACKETS ALTERATIONS – TIPS TO DRESSING WELL

Know Your Body Type

Weighty Men:

Emphasize vertical lines. Select chalk and stripes herringbones over plaids and solids. Garments should be cut liberally. Shirt collars not rounded. Choose collars that lead away from the face at a small angle, but never a broaden collar.

Small / Short Men:

Jacket length is significant. If it is too short, it will slice the body in half. Too long will make the legs appear shorter than they are. Shoulders of the short man’s jacket can be squared, raising the eye farther from the floor. Pants must be tapered at the bottom a bit more than usual. Give your blessing to additional length on cuffed pants and hold off from excessive fullness.

Tall Men:

Horizontal lines should be emphasized to stress width. Fabrics should be unfinished worsteds, tweeds and other bulky materials. Jacket must be worn on the long side among a loose waist and additional width in the shoulders. Pants should be cuffed.

“Every man as an individual, cannot be satisfied with the garment that is not made uniquely for him!”
