What Does Your Suit Say About You?
No matter where you live in the world, there is always an eternal battle as to who has the best taste in suits. It’s a crowded market of relaxed fits, slim cuts and casual linens. A tailored suit is a statement of taste and affluence and those different styles can say so much about you, before you’ve even uttered a sound.
Humans are judgmental characters – we all know that. We say what we like about not judging, but snap judgements happen, so you want to make a point of projecting the right image at all times.
If you have ever wondered what your suits say about you, let’s take a look at how your colour choices make a difference!
Navy or Black Suits
Almost every man buys a navy blue or a black suit at some point or another. They’re solid suit options as they work for every occasion, from the business boardroom to the dinner date. They also work as power colours that convey authority. When people walk in with a black suit on, they command immediate respect. In business, people take you seriously in a dark suit. In personal situations, they resonate confidence. The only downside is that they can make you blend in with the crowd, so while they command power, they don’t say anything about your shining bright personality!
Grey or Brown Suits
You can always find a dependable man in a grey or brown suit. Solid, uniform and unassuming, brown and grey convey trust and warmth. They are a popular option for weddings as much as they are business suits, as the colours are natural and work neutrally. While the solid navy and black suits are a great option, grey and brown are a little quiet but suitable no matter the circumstances. You look reliable and approachable in softer coloured suits, although the older you are, the more you may seem old-fashioned to the younger ones around!
Three-Piece Suits
Sometimes, the waistcoat dramatically transforms the way that a suit looks. The tailoring is something you may only think of for a formal occasion, but then there are those who wear waistcoats in the workplace, too. You are the perfectionist, and if you wear a waistcoat, you come across as exactly that. A waistcoat is a great way to revitalise the London look.
Pinstripe
Oh, the City boy look. Pinstripes make you look slick, like one of the executive big wigs who rule the company. Pinstripes will encourage the right sort of assumptions that you’re rich or on your way to rich, that you are driven and that you are from an affluent background. It’s a good choice if you want to look the part – even if you are faking it until you make it!
A gentleman of refinement will choose a suit that suits his personality and flair. He will wear the suit with confidence, and this confidence will show in everything he does.
