Slim Fit Suits vs. Traditional Fit

We have reached a new era in men’s dress, the ability to choose between slim fit suits and traditional. Slim fit suits have rapidly gained traction in menswear. This is a good thing since this now gives us more choices. But where do you find yourself in this process? On one hand for the very thin man, this is nothing short of a godsend. But, for middle weight to the Regal Fit man, this may not be the best choice. I say this because there are larger men who like the look, but it is not the best fit for them. Some things come into fashion which are not necessarily the best fit for everyone.

Slim fits suits can also be a great idea for the athletic body proportions not seen in the traditional fit suits. There are various variations of body styles and types, too numerous for this blog. But, there are different ways of fitting the individual so he can achieve his best look at an affordable price.

I would also add there are suits made for the Regal Fit. This style allows more waist room in the pant and crotch. However, there is a nice fit in the jacket.

If you have concerns or questions about this topic or other clothing topics, please contact me.
Thank you and I look forward to hearing from you.

Why Do I Need a Personal Shopper/Image Consultant?

I bet there are many of you who feel an image consultant/personal shopper is for other people, not you. A personal shopper/image consultant is for anyone who wants to look great and wants to make sure they get their look just right.

But, what about the price? Aren’t they expensive? The price varies and depends on the job. Have you ever asked the doctor how much would it cost before deciding to visit when ill? Dressing well is not the same as being ill, but can you afford to not get the right information from someone who’s specifically trained in making you look good, feel confident and the perfect person for the job?.

My name is Eric. I am a Personal Shopper/Image Consultant with Noble Image and apparel. I have over thirty years of experience in making men feel comfortable and look great.

4 Timeless Fashion Tips for Men

As any fashion consultant would tell you, you don’t need to be flashy to make a statement with your clothing. As a man, classic fashion trends will still make you stand out in a good way. Here are 4 timeless men’s fashion tips to keep in mind when selecting your wardrobe.

You Get What You Pay For

When it comes to clothing, quality is definitely better than quantity. Especially with items like suits and sport coats, you want to get the best quality that you can afford so they will last for a long time. The best part about timeless pieces is that going for the best quality will pay off since you can wear them for years to come!

A good suit will never go out of style, so invest in one that you will still want to wear years from now. If it’s high-quality, you won’t have to keep replacing it anyway.

Less Is More

If you buy high-quality items, there’s no need for a seemingly endless wardrobe. Focus on pieces that can be worn interchangeably. If you have a great sport coat or blazer that matches with jeans and dressier pants, you can get twice the use out of it and your budget will thank you for it!

A Good Fit Is Essential

A suit may be timeless, but you won’t look your best unless it fits you properly. This is true with all other clothing items as well. A good fit will flatter your body without having to put any extra effort into it. Learn to walk away from clothing that you love but doesn’t fit you properly—fit matters more than you think.

Trends Will Fade

Buying an occasional piece that you like right now but you know won’t still be “in style” next year isn’t always a waste. Clothing that is trendy can add a fun twist to your wardrobe, but know that you won’t have to worry about looking out of place with classic, timeless pieces.

What Is Involved in Makeovers for Men?

Generally when people think about makeovers, they picture women getting new makeup and haircuts. What many do not realize is that with the help of a good image consultant, men can benefit greatly from makeovers as well. A good meeting with an image consultant can lead to a man getting a new hairstyle, a better wardrobe, facials and manicures, and ideas on how to improve personal presence and confidence.

New Hairstyle

Women aren’t the only ones who can be transformed with a new way to arrange their locks. The right hairstyle on a man can be incredibly appealing and could possibly change the way people look at and think about him. A good image consultant can help a man find the best hairstyle.

Better Wardrobe

It truly is what is on the inside that counts, but what a man wears on the outside can send a strong message about what can be found within. Someone who specializes in makeovers for men will be able to guide their client to the right clothing to help spread the message he wants the world to know about him.

Facials and Manicures

Yes, these are available for men as well. Gentle products can be used to moisturize, exfoliate, and minimize pores. Those who think this would be bereft of manliness should know that men who take care of their skin in this manner are able to grow thicker beards, and will take longer to show the signs of aging.

Tips for Personal Image

A lot of personal image will come from the way a man carries himself. A good image consultant can show a man the proper way to stand and walk to bring a certain authoritative presence with him. Men who enlist in these services will also be shown how to speak in order to breed confidence and show their skills and abilities. Impressive first impressions are made much easier to come by with this kind of instruction.

 

Fall Fashion Tips for Men

As the weather turns a bit crisper, the stylish man turns his thoughts to adding some up-to-date pieces to his wardrobe. A current wardrobe helps any man look put-together, professional, and stylish.

For more tips, a men’s image consultation can give helpful tips for a particular body type or coloring.

Off the Cuff – Reflections of an Image Consultant

While it may not feel like it’s spring, spring is here. What does that mean? It is time for men to get their spring and summer looks together and talk about men’s fashions.

When I was at Men’s New York Fashion Week, I noticed a return to the preppy look: printed jackets, pants and even polo shirts. The look is short in the body and fitted around the waist. By the way, take it from this fashion consultant, don’t over do it! If you wear a printed shirt, wear solid pants and visa versa. Also make sure your garments fit correctly so it doesn’t’ look like you’re wearing pajamas.   Always look your best.

I also noticed wearing white is making a huge resurgence.   But the trick to wearing white is to make sure textures contrast as to keep your look from appearing tacky or overstated.

At Noble Image and Apparel, we believe in keeping looks simple and streamlined. When getting ready to start your day, get a nice shirt; choose a pair of pants, select a pair of boat shoes or sneakers and go for it!

When looking at all the new colors and fashion trends, one thing to keep in mind is there is nothing worse than buying trends that don’t make it through one season. Stick to the classics, the garments that are going to be around for a while and you are sure to get your money’s worth out them. However, that doesn’t mean you can’t make your look your own and modernize your look by possibly adding a splash of color.
