If you believe that skinny men look good in almost anything…well, you are wrong! Ask them to sport a suit in lighter fabrics and see for yourself how it appears to be hanging from their lean frames. Heavier fabrics like wools, tweed, worsted wools, etc are more ideal for you if you are tall and ‘lanky’. Also lighter colors add volume to your appearance and do avoid vertical stripes as they will only add the illusion of height.

Invest in a good jacket with three buttons as this is ideal for men who are tall, more so those with ‘longer’ torsos. You can either choose to opt out of “vents” in your jackets or play safe with a single vent. You need to look fuller than you are and it does not create a good impression if your clothes when worn by you, look as if they have been hung from a clothes-hanger.

For men with longer legs which look like they would go on and on….go for pants with longer rise. This implies that the distance between the waistband of your pants and the crotch should be more than normal. This will give you a fairly proportionate look. As for accessories, do not go for shoes that make you look taller. Your shirts should also be in lighter hues and do not ignore the fact that striped shirt will make you look leaner than you already are.

A fitted suit has no substitute and shorter hems as well as sharp lines are ‘in’. So, do invest in a power suit which makes you look your part in this game of power dressing!

Men who are on the bulky side are always wary when they want to try out something new, especially so when it comes to corporate apparels or work wear. It is a wrong notion that suits add volume to your frame. If you choose the fabric and cut wisely, it can in fact help you to camouflage your flaws.

The adage that “less is more” applies in the realm of men’s business suits and work suits also. Yes, go for the fitted suits which not only help you streamline your appearance, they make you look sleek and suave. Today’s trend is towards a fit which is slimmer, more so near the shoulders, and also hemlines which are shorter.

Vertical stripes go a long way to make you look trimmer by creating an illusion of height. If stripes are not your thing then just go for simple solids. Darker, more solid colors work wonders to make you look lighter! Opt for the classic black or dark navy if you are confused. With these colors, you can never go wrong.

When it comes to the right jacket, go for the one with two buttons as this can suit any body type. Also, single vents allow the necessary movement without attracting any undue attention to the bulky backside. You can opt for a continental or Italian suit which is vent-less at the back as it will have a further slimming effect. A three button blazer will also make you look visibly taller, if you keep the top button undone. British suits also never go out of style and are good for a broader frame.

With the pants or trousers, avoid the pleats as it draws attention to the bulky belly or pelvic region. Plain fronts work for all body types and more so with those who do not want to look bulkier than what they already are.

Use these simple tips which will never let you go wrong with business suits and your corporate work wear.
