MC STYLE TIP #15 | Poise

MC STYLE TIP #15: Suits are often best when cut to flatter. Proper fit should be snug, not loose/soft to keep you poised and looking smart.

The coat should gently hug or pinch a tiny bit at the underarm and shoulder. The length of the coat and sleeves is up to you. A more modern look opts for something especially slim and trim...avoiding especially long and full sleeves. Tradition asks that your entire suit adequately conform to your entire body and mask the aspects you're wanting to conceal and showcase the ones you're most proud of! Rules are great and are often worth following, but break them with care!
