So I tried a lot: Kenzo, Boss, Paul Smith, Olivier Strelli, Armani ... and then one day I discovered Smuggler. I knew because their garment factory is Limoges and then they asked us to redesign their website and so I had the opportunity to really understand how they work and learn about their products.They have a unique marketing and sales concept, excellent product quality and customer service at the top level. Of course I do not say here because they are customers in any bias ... I invite you to discover if you are looking for great costumes French manufacturing at very reasonable prices.
Returning customer experience.

First thing, Smuggler offers half-measure cheap custom suits, basically they take your measurements and adjust the cut to your body. Once we tried the half-measure one can not imagine ironing ready-to-wear. Yeah, everyone is a victim of a few anatomical disgrace, me for example, I have the longest or the left shoulder lower arms I know not but result with a traditional costume right arm two inches, my handle is too long on one side ...Second thing, you can fully customize your costume, choose the lining, the number of pockets, type of fly (very important), the type of buttonhole stitching or not ... So your costume is unique! Third, once your actions, no more endless fittings (and here it is for us men ...), you go to the store you choose your fabric and hop production is launched. The choice of fabric is limitless and they give you real advice.

The Vest and Suit


Three piece suit e as suas utilidadesThree piece suit and their utilities
First of all, a story: once the suit consisted of trousers, jacket and vest, all in the same pattern - color and fabric - hence the name suit (3 thingies standardized joints). Pants and jacket in the same fabric and color without vests were known as customs. One day the vest was abolished, but the name just revenge and getting even with only a duo, so suit today also goes for pants and jacket combo only.
Didatismos aside, let's get to it: the vest worn ground and sportingly and as part of a "suit" is still booming. And as you can see above it can be used with or without a tie (the latter more informal, stripped and always with his shirt open at the neck area), in a fabric that blend in but harmonizes with the pants and jacket and last but not least, gives even to use it with a good jeans (the "James Bond" can, why not you, duh?). And saw how he did? Used the contrast of the top super formal with informal totally in skin jeans and a tailpiece formal feet, only to not target too. A bolted ground. There is not a look that will work for everyone, but if you have what it takes ... why not? And of course weddings or formal events are not certain occasions to test this look, is not it? Think less and more modestly giving foot.
Another thing to say, use the vest as part of his bespoke suits can be a way to differentiate themselves from the caravan suits that surround it. And on one occasion that requires certain formality can give a charm and an air of sophistication extras. This look does not need to be used with ties skinnys and despite being classic walks with a modern face ... And it can even give you an opening to use your single-breasted jacket, open even in transit, showcasing the vest, but this properly buttoned (the last button up and down buttons do not, remember?). If it is a jacket (double-breasted) ... there does not not!
If pumping the point of using all pass and you're the type who likes to distort the looks of the moment and to be different from everyone, wait for him to return to the yard and use it fashion. Until then, go without her. But if you want to ride the wave and feel a Brad Pitt without Angelina ... use and abuse your good friend, the vest. And in several occasions.
Incidentally, fofoquinha: it seems that lately Mr. Pitt has used much the new "designer" Male wonderful Tom Ford. So no one will notice the Angelina ...

The Color of Socks

The Color of Socks

Should match what? In a modern way and the general rule of thumb is: socks should be seen as a continuation of his pants. Therefore, it should always be the exact shade of the pants, or sometimes may lean toward a darker tone up. With that you get a continuous visual line and elegant waist to your shoes, otherwise it stops at the ankle that is not an area that should be noticed, let it be.

As for the custom made suits she lets you coordinate with the half pants or the shoes or sneakers if you want. Or in some cases (sports always order), the white can be used to track your gym shoes or bermudinha / sports pants. Or, look at some supersports with sneakers (and jeans, for example), especially if the shoes in question have "something" in it white. There valley.

These above tips fit better in my book preference.

There is still a current fashionista allowing combined with half the shoe. So it is not wrong to assert this. For example, following the logic of this current, if your custom suits is dark gray or navy, you can coordinate the color of the half with the color of the shoe, which should be a black or brown.

But anyway, is up to you to choose the path, because all the options were correct, fashion wise.

On another hand, it is clear that there are exceptions to every rule and subversions that can go very right for example, echo the color of the tie in half. If the tie is maroon, can have a "note" in the middle of Burgundy. And there's also those with lozenges (having a background color of pants or shoes) that depending on your style might even make a good boss. But there is fashionable and advanced the type that works for everyone. Stay on 101 same fashion.

Suit and sneakers | Dress Paired with Social?

Suit and sneakers | Dress Paired with Social?

Many men have sought comfort and style in this mix custom suits with sneakers. We observed many celebrities opting for this style and it will comment below.
Bruno Mazzeo and its "customization". Via Gustavo Sarti
By tradition, we know that the use of the jacket and pants set featuring a tailored suit, falls in the category of Social Attire. Using Social Attire, as previously discussed in other posts, is properly suited for meetings, celebrations and special occasions which is required more formal tone of its participants. If the clothing was given this, it is necessary first of all to respect the request of the party's hosts and not dispense with the use of shoe that can be both social and pointy as rounded.

Logically, the use of tennis mischaracterizes automatically Dress Code, and what was once Attire Social, will be renamed Smart Casual. This new style, more informal and not usable on the same occasions as the previous combinations allow much broader in the category "Customization" costumes. Even with the use of tennis.
Since the notable differences between the two styles, it is correct to say that:

    
Social Attire is characterized by social and suit and shoe is a style adopted for special occasions.
    
If invited to an event in your invitation stating: "Evening Social" is essential to respect the Dress Code and use the costume above.
    
Smart Casual is characterized by a little more informality which, using Blazer, jeans and tennis shoes (or shoes of the very social) are released.
    
Dress appropriately with Smart Casual, who will go to: art exhibitions, more formal lunches, conferences, theater and events that start in the late afternoon.
To end this post reaffirm that the use of shoes not descaracterizará your user from the moment that this is in accordance with the standards cited by little. Otherwise the appearance of this production will be poor in harmony production and transmit the feeling that "something did not fit."


Everything you need to know to not make mistakes when choosing suit

Everything you need to know to not make mistakes when choosing suit

When it comes to custom made suits, elegance rules will have to be met exactly, both in formal events, as in casual.

At the time of choosing your suit, careful not to let the pants get too large so you do not appear to be the size that it is, and let cloth left over is never cool. The ideal length of the pants is 1 cm above the heel, and flat or folded in the Italian style. The color of the suit and pants must be the same, never mix two parts of different patterns. If in doubt when the choice of tie, choose the diagonal stripes with options that are stylish and targeted enforcement, the tie length must be knocking on the belt, which should always be the same color of the shoe. Already socks should match the color of the pants, not the shoe.

 


The jacket may favor their biotype if you choose the right way, paying attention to and buttoned lapels:

If you are quietly, may increase your silhouette by choosing a suit one button, which is kind of hard in the Brazilian market, therefore, adopt the 2 buttons that buttoned properly, will elongate your torso.

Skinny people can bet on double-breasted, our jacket, this style coming back into fashion, but I would not recommend it for first-timers, because it is difficult to keep buttoned with elegance.

For those who are overweight, 2 button suit, as the 1 button, helps lengthen and conceal excess at deep V that provides the lapel. A shirt with a lighter color than the jacket also slims.

  For the tall and strong, suit 3 button helps to disguise the silhouette because the divides in two, calling attention to the one button buttoned properly, the middle.

There are also rules time buttoning his suit: the jacket 1 button, this can be buttoned or unbuttoned when seated, now 2 buttons, the top one should be buttoned. The LOW, EVER.


 
 
 As for colors, for the job, the ideal are the gray suits, navy blue is also a good choice, in this case, the traditional lapels will do the trick. For an evening event, black is unbeatable, navy blue can also be used. When in doubt, leave the lightest to the darkest day and for night.

All of our suits are made using a couture muslin technique

The navy custom made suits pictured in this posting is a recent suit that we made for a local customer who had been unable to find a pant style that he liked at the shops.  He wanted a suit that was traditional, but not in the way that “traditional” suits tend to be.

He very graciously allowed me to snap a few pictures for our site.
The suit is made from a 10.5 oz gabardine that is extremely durable and perfect for travel.  With hand pick-stitching on the lapels and handmade buttonholes on the jacket and the waistcoat.

The grey flannel suit is another recent business suit project.  This piece was made from a gorgeous pinstripe flannel fabric.
All of our suits are made using a couture muslin technique.  For this process we make the suit first in a rough cotton muslin.

Every Bespoke Suit Carefully Hand Stitched Your Lapel

Seersucker – There is an old saying that “Only rich men can afford such a cheap fabric.” You can go traditional with a full-on seersucker suit or blazer like this Bonobos edition, or go modern with seersucker accessories.
2. Color – The bolder and brighter the better. There’s no wrong place for it: your shirt (think pastel!), pants, socks, bow tie, even your shoe laces.
3. Hats – Leave them for the ladies!
4. Be comfortable! The beauty of #DerbyStyle is you can dress up, and still be cool and comfortable. It’s all about breathable fabrics (seersucker, cotton, linen), whether in the Kentucky sun  or a sweaty NYC bar.

Now, if you just can’t get yourself to go all-in on this, and you’re looking to participate in a conservative way, perhaps you can go with a conservative, derby-themed accessory.  Here’s a favorite from our Collection:

The white square is acceptable for almost any ensemble but looks particularly good with dark, conservative suits where its crisp clean appearance is most pronounced.

Black Tie Men's Shirts


The dress shirt beneath a black tie jacket is always white; there is no room for negotiation here. Collars should ideally be turndown, with the collar points hidden behind the bowtie, but modern black tie (particularly in America) has come to accept the sharply-pointed wing collar as well. Traditionalists consider the wing collar too ostentatious for proper black tie, but it is still widely available; men are here, as with peaked lapels, encouraged to consider carefully how much they want to draw attention specifically to their outfits.

The white square is acceptable for almost any ensemble but looks particularly good with dark, conservative suits where its crisp clean appearance is most pronounced.
Silk Handkerchiefs
Silk squares are what a gentleman is most likely to encounter in the department store; many have dozens of options on display. These handkerchiefs come in nearly every color and pattern imaginable, and offer far more opportunity to make a bold and distinctive statement. By the same token, these are also the handkerchiefs that produce much of the stress associated with wearing a square, as the variety of colors and patterns presents what can seem a daunting choice. One particular detail to note when choosing a silk square are hand-rolled edges; these are a sign of quality and attention to detail and should be present on a well-made square.

Remember when selecting the type of fabric for a dress handkerchief, the fabric of the jacket and tie should be considered. Mix silk squares with heavier tie fabrics, and more textured handkerchiefs with smooth ties is an excellent way to add contrast, while silk squares against a rough jacket like tweed is particularly distinctive. Wool suits, the most common option, are equally at home with linen or silk, as are silk ties – indeed, the variety of patterns available in silk may require a silk square for some ensembles.

Black Tie Men's Shirts


The dress shirt beneath a black tie jacket is always white; there is no room for negotiation here. Collars should ideally be turndown, with the collar points hidden behind the bowtie, but modern black tie (particularly in America) has come to accept the sharply-pointed wing collar as well. Traditionalists consider the wing collar too ostentatious for proper black tie, but it is still widely available; men are here, as with peaked lapels, encouraged to consider carefully how much they want to draw attention specifically to their outfits.
Well-made dress shirts should always have a doubled-over "bib" of fabric up the front of the garment, usually decorated with narrow, closely-spaced pleats. The shirt fastens with studs, not buttons, which should always match the cufflinks and are generally restricted to black, gold, or mother-of-pearl, with black being the most common. 

The most formal option in men's business wear is a plain white shirt with a well-pressed, non-button-down collar. It's always a safe option for an interview, though hardly the only appropriate one -- use it as your baseline rather than your absolute standard. Bright colors or bold patterns would be inappropriate for an interview, but some subtle elements in either area help make a conservative outfit more unique without appearing frivolous.
If you opt for a white shirt, consider a subtle texturing to make it more eye-catching. A herringbone weave in plain white is much more interesting to the eye than untextured monochrome. Modest patterning is also appropriate, especially on a primarily white base; small, regularly-sized checks in light blue -- with their visual nod to graph and drafting paper -- are particularly worthwhile for engineers.
In an interesting reversal of the usual business preferences, engineers may find employers more willing to accept button-down collars and less inclined to look favorably on French cuffs. The former have both a practicality and a traditional association with manual labor that go over well in most engineering firms, while the latter are a purely fashionable gesture that can get in the way of work with the hands.

Importance of Owning a Light Gray Suit

 Importance of Owning a Light Gray Suit
At the end of the day, light gray isn't a bespoke suit that every man needs -- but it's a color than nearly any man can look good in if he wants to. Adding a light gray suit to the closet gives you a powerful tool for social occasions and a unique chance to stand out in a crowd.

What Man Needs A Light Gray Suit?
Light gray suits are ideal for men who wear suits by choice or have all of the foundation suits covered.
Men who wear suits out of business necessity will want to opt for darker colors and more conservative choices; men who want to look sharp when they go out socially can wear light grays with confidence. The color will stand out as a consciously-thought choice rather than a default style.
Men in hot, humid climates will also want to think about investing in a light gray suit - especially one that is unlined and made from a lightweight fabric. Dress codes in general tend to relax as the thermometer climbs, meaning that a light gray suit might be a more useful piece of business wear than it would be for a man in a temperate climate. And the color will certainly be more comfortable to wear on social occasions than most other options.

If you're on the go a lot, your jacket can be a virtual bat-belt, holding papers, pens, phone, PDA, keys, cigarettes, wallet, and loose cash all secure and readily accessible. Almost all sport coats have the standard two inside pockets; many have additional ones for pens or cash. A custom made coat can have whatever pocket configuration its wearer desires, such as special pockets for a security badge, pocket watch, or cigar. Men have even had their jackets made with an iPod pocket, complete with a port for the headphone wire. While some claim that putting anything in a jacket's outside pockets throws its drape askew and should be avoided, this can usually be remedied by load-balancing: keys on the right, phone on the left, etc. The inside pockets can hold significant weight without affecting how the fabric hangs, but whatever you put in them will be right against your chest with the jacket closed, so it's not the best place for a bulky key-chain.

The sport coat is a remarkably versatile garment. It is the working man's custom made suits and the thinking man's pullover. In this twenty-first century, it guarantees its wearer a sharp, handsome look wherever he goes.
