With a global network of retailers offering some of the best shoes and sneakers for men, buying a pair of shoes in Australia from overseas has never been easier. However, to convert a US shoe size to AUS, for example, isn’t always as simple as you’d think.
While in most cases you’ll just want to size down from US shoe sizes to AU shoe sizes, some brands don’t always conform. To help you convert international shoe size to AUS, use the calculator below.
To use the shoe size conversion tool, select whether you want to convert an adult or a child’s shoe size, enter the size of the shoe you’re looking at in the field next to its respective country – for example, if you’re looking a US 12 men’s shoe size, enter ’12’ in the US/CA men field.
You’ll then be shown what the equivalent shoe size is in all other destinations around the world, making it easy to find your shoe size in AUS.
How are shoe sizes calculated?
Without a shoe size conversion tool like the one above, determining your shoe size can be tricky. This is both because of differences in manufacturing between brands, and the method of measurements used around the world.

Australia & United Kingdom
In the United Kingdom, Ireland, India, Pakistan and South Africa, for example, shoe size is determined by the length of the last used in the production of the shoes. A last can be thought of like a mould, that shoe manufacturers use when making their shoes.
These lasts are measured in barleycorns (a former English unit of measurement) which is equal to 1/3 inch. Australian shoe sizes tend to follow this form of measurement, so a UK 11 should equal an AU 11.
United States
In the United States and Canada, a similar form of measurement is used to the UK, but men’s shoe sizes are one size longer than their UK equivalent, i.e. a UK 11 would be a US 12. This is because US men’s shoe sizes start at size 1, whereas in the UK, they start at 0.
Continental Europe
Continental Europe measures men’s shoe sizes slightly differently, using the Paris points system. One Paris point is equivalent to 2/3 cm, or 6.67mm. This system is used in Australia, Belgium, Denmark, France, Germany, Italy, Luxembourg, the Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland and the majority of other continental European countries.
This shoe size measurement system results in a different number to what you’ll find in Australia, the UK and the US, which can make converting men’s shoe sizes even tricker.
For reference, a UK and AU 11 is an EU 45.
Are men’s shoe size conversions always the same?
Not necessarily.

One brand we’re aware of that doesn’t strictly follow the shoe size conversion methods mentioned above is Converse. If you’re after a pair of Converse Chuck Taylors, you’ll find a men’s US 11 is the same as an AU/UK 11.
So, while the Australian men’s shoe size conversion calculator above is a good indicator, it’s still always best to check the manufacturer’s shoe size conversion chart before you make a purchase.

Men’s bracelets and blokes. It’s a complex mix. But over the past few years, bracelets for men have taken off as a major trend. Especially, among those style aficionados. From leather bands to braided cord, to wooden beads and metallic cuffs, the world’s fashion icons and film stars are flexing their wrist-game (beyond the foolproof watch) and adopting the bracelet.
But not without some rules, of course. The trick is finding bracelets that don’t look like you just raided your lady’s jewellery box. You want pieces that are stylish and masculine, made from interesting materials and in colours that are conducive to the mix-and-match stacked effect.
Not only will this kind of arm candy boost your style cred, it’s easier – and far less stressful – than relying on a hot date to raise your aesthetic profile. Here’s our guide to the best men’s bracelets. Sweeten that wrist.
In This Story…
Metal Chains & Cuffs

Metal men’s bracelets, steeped in military tradition, are historically the most popular due to their simplicity and ruggedness. Getting specific, ID bracelets are key, rating high on the masculinity spectrum due to their bulkiness and silver tone colour. Feature pieces on their own, wear metallic bracelets on your right hand wrist, opposite the watch and play with matching the tone of the metal to your watch for a cleaner look to your accessories style.
As for metal cuffs, be careful not to buy one resembles a bangle. Burnished metal or oxidised styles make the cuff appear more masculine. Pairing a leather cuff with a metal variety injects some toughness into the wrist. Plus, it’s a great way to add texture and layering.
Leather Band Bracelets

Like metal, men’s leather bracelets are masculine and its formalities can be played around with. Wider cuffs are seen as more casual while finer, thinner bracelet types are more chic. Leather bracelets can be woven or simply a crafted, single piece of leather that wraps once or even twice around the wrist, then tied or closed with a press stud or clasp fastening. And, unlike metallic bracelets, leather contrasts well against watch dials, complementing the wrist nicely, as you stack your bracelet and timepiece together on the same arm.
Fabric Woven Bracelets

The fabric woven, like its leather brother mentioned above, is quite popular. But its cotton or poly material mix makes it much cheaper than animal hide. Plus, colour and pattern is where the fabric woven shines, opting for a colour that matches your pocket square or tie when wearing a suit or your cotton shorts when lazing by the pool. Woven men’s bracelets are designed to be stacked with a watch or complement a ring, and look great paired with a leather and metal bracelet, covering all your bracelet basics.
Hybrid Charm Bracelets

Special mention is order for this type hybrid variety. This type varies depending on the brand and occasion for wearing, but generally consists on a plain bracelet band in leather or fabric and a bold metal feature – the clasp itself or a metal tone charm attached the men’s bracelet. The hybrid design – material and metal – makes it flashier than most, especially if the bracelet itself is brightly coloured edge with a bling-ed metal charm or glitzy clasp, designed in a bold motif (think an anchor, insect or flower).
Bead Bracelets

In recent seasons, the beaded bracelet has earned top spot as the most popular arm accessory for men. And their popularity lies in their vast selection. From wooden varieties – for something ethnic-inspired – to luxury crystal, bone and glass versions, as well as more affordable and old plastic styles, you can find a bead to best match your mood, style and dress code.
They look great stacked, mixing bead patterns, sizing, material and colour for a combo that is oh so you. With a formal suit, go monochrome and minimal, while summer events – like the races or weddings require colour and texture, drawing on colours from your outfit to make the men’s bracelet pop.
Men’s Bracelets FAQ
How to wear a men's cuff bracelet?
To pull off a cuff bracelet, make sure you keep it as simple as possible. Metal and leather cuffs are both acceptable, but aim for something that is wide, as opposed to on the thinner side. Also, make sure it matches or complements your watch (if you wear one). Silver is the safest bet, before moving onto gold and leather.
How to wear a men's bracelet with a watch?
The general style rule here is to wear a bracelet on the opposite wrist to your watch. However, some guys find they like to wear a lot of bracelets (a combination of braided cord and leather), which can be worn on the same wrist as your watch, if they complement the colour of your watch or the materials used.

Black sneakers are quite possibly the best footwear investment a man can make. How so? Black sneakers can be paired with pretty much anything, they lend themselves to the colder seasons of the year (far better than their white sneakers counterpart) and are perfect for pairing with evening wear such as black jeans or chinos when hitting the town.
Black sneakers are the perfect accessory for luxe streetwear outfits too or anything that involves a leather jacket, and because they’re so dark, you could even get away with wearing them to more formal occasions (just don’t come blaming us if you’re caught out and ejected).
So where do you start in the game of black sneakers? Figuring out the occasion. Skate style black sneakers are best paired with casual gear like t-shirts, jeans and shorts. Black sneakers of the leather variety are best suited to more smart-casual looks which employ trousers, chinos and fitted shorts. Black running shoes meanwhile play best in the streetwear space, or naturally, at the gym.
If you know the occasion you’re buying for, then we’re happy to let you loose into the world of black sneaker shopping. But to give you a helping hand, we’ve put together this list of some of the best pairs of men’s black sneakers currently available, covering a variety of materials, styles and budgets.

Jon Hamm has revealed he wasn’t paid for his role in the critically acclaimed and wickedly funny film, Bridesmaids.
Remember the 2011 film, Bridesmaids? Starring Kristen Wiig as Annie, a down-on-her-luck pastry chef whose life completely falls apart after her best friend gets engaged, Bridesmaids will go down as one of the funniest movies of all time.
If it’s been a while since you’ve watched Bridesmaids, you’ve probably forgotten that Jon Hamm – the man, the myth, the legend who plays Don Draper in Mad Men – appeared in Bridesmaids as Annie’s loathsome lover, Ted.
But the Emmy-winning actor, who most recently starred in Top Gun: Maverick, didn’t get paid a single dime for his role in Bridesmaids; in fact, he wasn’t even listed in the film’s credits. Hamm recently appeared as a guest on Pop Culture Spotlight with Jessica Shaw and revealed he did the film as a favour to Wiig as the two are good friends.
“I was uncredited in Bridesmaids, you know, because like, yeah it’s my friend, of course, I’ll do that… I did that movie before there was a part, before there was a script; I said ‘yes’ to it. And [my] agents went, ‘Oh, well, shit. How do we, you know, ask for money?’ And I was like, ‘Don’t worry about it.’ It just, let me let go have fun with friends.”
Jon Hamm
WATCH: Jon Hamm discusses his uncredited and unpaid role in ‘Bridesmaids’…
“[Wiig and I] were in a couple [of Saturday Night Live] sketches together and got along like a house on fire, and she said, ‘Will you please be in my movie? Please be in my movie.’ You know, nobody knew it was gonna be the global success that it was. But I knew it would be funny. And especially with that cast, you know, I was like, ‘Sure, of course. Are you kidding me? Thank you for asking. Of course, I’ll do that.’”
Hamm also said earlier in the interview, that he regularly says yes to various gigs before checking with his agents; much to their dismay.
“Mostly I drive [my agents] crazy because I say yes to everything, you know? I’m always showing up for people’s podcasts or what have you. But that’s what I like doing.”
Jon Hamm
“You know, I like engaging with the people that I work with, you know, and I’ve had some tremendous, fun experiences doing that. And things like that turn into other things. And, you know, those are the kinds of things you can’t measure.”
Some wise words there from Hamm, who’s ironically most famous for playing a narcissistic character who couldn’t care less about enjoyable, meaningful moments with other people. Hamm really did earn his Emmy for playing Draper, didn’t he?

Men are wary of wearing a whole lot of white. It’s not really a go-to colour in winter. And, in summer, white (too often) attracts a brass-buttoned blazer in navy and breton stripe tee (not to mention boat shoes). And suddenly we’re all a bunch of cloned southern Frenchmen on a yacht. Ahoy, sailor!
Meanwhile, white is a disaster to keep clean. Red wine stains, food stains, dirt-from-our-hands stains, you know the drill. So, why are we dedicating a whole feature to wearing white? Well, white – when done right – looks fantastic and a real style accent for 2016. From the runway to the street, read on for 5 simple and stylish ways on how to wear white.
In This Story…
#1 It’s A White-Wash
All-white looks dominated the runway in Europe this season, even for the winter shows. It’s menswear’s way of brightening up the cooler months, and bringing a little light-heartedness to it all – rain, hail, or snow. All-over, tonal white has some style rules, however.
To avoid looking like a medic, play with different shades of white – from crisp and stark white, to ivory or off-white and even beige and cream. Then, add more depth to the head-to-toe white, wearing varied textures with different materials, the matte rubber of a raincoat over a the furriness of a sweater and the ridge-like stripes of a cord trouser. See what we did there?
#2 Tailored Back
Tailoring need not be stuffy and heavy, thanks to light, white jackets and pants. A cotton or linen blazer with well-cut chinos is tailoring-reworked, with denim shirting and western-style push tabs under the white. Meanwhile, white shirting, slightly ruffled at the neck and sleeves, goes well with pleated trousers in light cotton – sans belt. Beige separates take away any hint cheesy, nautical vibes, which are too predictable where white pants are concerned.
Add some interest to white separates with silver jewellery – bracelets, rings and leather cuffs – and some beads for an injection of colour. Finally, metal wire frames are huge this season. As are vintage leather belts – worn a little messily, in stark contrast to the purity of the white trouser.
#3 Better With Leather
A pristine white shirt looks better with leather. A key style item this season, the romanticism of rock-n-roll (all that velvet, long hair and floral silk) is reworked with dapper, crisp white shirting. There are two simple ways to approach the look.
The first involves a cropped biker jacket – with minimal hardware, over skinny jeans – belted, and that all-important white shirt, its straight-point collar buttoned fully to the neck with a front placket adding a touch of formal. Elsewhere, opt for a smaller-collared shirt, left untucked, over more trouser-ish denim or pants and a slouchier, longer fit leather jacket, the coolness oozing down to the footwear – Chelsea boots or sneakers, depending on the occasion.
#4 (Not So) Sharp Shirting
In an act of sacrilege, street wear hooligans have kidnapped the religiously, fancy white shirt, and done what they want with it. This looks like short-sleeve, long-line shirt cuts with mandarin collars for the more style adventurous, rocking the half-tuck over another shirt – with longer sleeves for a double-up layered look.
Elsewhere, a crisp white dinner shirt need not be reserved for a formal affair. Layer it under a casual jacket – think camo print parka, denim shirt jacket or velvet bomber – and keep the cuffs open and sprawled. It’s against all the rules, but formalities are designed to be played with in the street.
#5 Weekend Prep
The weekend is here and your Sunday driving outfit – car top down and shades on – is ready for you, in white. The signature preppy chino in white gets a reworking with the season’s favourite suede bomber – changing up the colour to an emerald green instead of typical brown. Add a timepiece (something metallic and ostentatious, but in a good way) and pop that collar, for a bit of style nonchalance, just like the Italians do it.
The white polo is a no-brainer addition to classy casual wear, matched with a windowpane check trousers, and tassel loafer (suede, again), this time with a denim overshirt for an edgier prep look: something reverently Nineties collegiate, that’s anything but jock. More cool-guy punk.
#6 Street Chic
Kept stark white and crisp, a basic t-shirt is the perfect layering piece – under a military bomber in sporty nylon, and slim-fit jeans, cuffed at the ankle. Low-cut leather sneakers – in white, base-out the minimalism. Be sure to keep your kicks super-clean, never diminishing their bright power.
For a day-to-night, wintry outfit, try chinos and a leather derby under a waffle knit and a round-shouldered blazer – both in white. Just add an off-white roll-neck – under the sweater instead of scarf, and a beanie for more warmth. Plus, the ensemble is a clash of Euro-meets-New York, with tailoring and urban touches. Simply loose the beanie, when indoors. But beware the beanie-hair.
Now go forth and experience how to wear white the right way.

Distressed and ripped denim first made its debut back in the early 2000’s when Tsubi (now Ksubi) famously painted, ripped and chopped men’s jeans for the masses. Pretty soon everyone was doing it including several high-profile American menswear brands. The ripped jeans trend dropped off in the early 2010’s only to be revived towards the turn of the decade. Today the likes of Scott Disick, Kanye West, Justin Theroux and other Hollywood celebrities make ripped denim jeans part of their every day casual attire.
The shredded look is still on trend and this guide should help you style and wear your ripped jeans with the upmost class… if there can be such a thing.
In This Story…
Choose A Distressed Denim Style That Suits You
Remember to choose jeans based on your body type, style, shape and occasion. Ripped denim will limit occasion but the information below should help you step out in style.
Vintage Distressed

If you have the time, then vintage denim is the best. It’s been well loved, worn and repaired multiple times. Take the APC Butler Program for example. APC will buy your old jeans, repair them and sell them to someone who wants to love them agin.
Lightly Distressed

You can buy a factory made pair of ripped jeans by most brands these days. The trick here to select a pair that’s well produced with rips and cuts that improve the look of the jeans. Brands like Saint Laurent, John Elliot and DSquared2 are known for their expertise in this area.
Shredded / Eurotrash

The eurotrash denim trend has been in full swing for a number of years thanks to the likes of Amiri and DSquared2. Shredded denim is often over the top, embelished and paint splattered. Be warned these are cool but they won’t be in style forever and often cost a lot of money (i.e. over $1,000).
Less is more with ripped jeans. Choose brands who know how to create natural wear and rips.
Luc Wiesman, Founder, DMARGE
Buying The Right Ripped Jeans
- Saint Laurent, Dsquared2, Amiri and John Elliot are three brands who are leading the way when it comes to distressed denim.
- Choose your rips & tears carefully. Too much tends to look a bit whack.
- Paint splatters are also popular.
- Ripped jeans are not smart casual or office appropriate
- ASOS and Topman are your go-to for affordable ripped denim
- Learn to put your ripped jeans on carefully as wayward feet will tear the rips even further beyond repair

Distressed Jeans & The Right Footwear

Sneakers
If you’re more inclined to choose relaxed or slim legged ripped jeans then sneakers can often be the best choice. The drape of the jeans work with low sneakers, however, if your jeans are longer then high tops look even better.

Work Boots & Chukkas
The work boot or chukka is a good choice for men who would like to take their ripped denim out of sneaker land. Think of this as a level up in dress code when sneakers just won’t cut it.

Chelsea & Dress Boots
Finally, the Chelsea boot or dress boot and ripped denim combination is great for dressing up. Perfect for a night out bar hopping or a casual dinner with friends, maybe even casual Friday. The Chelsea boot works best with slim and skinny jeans.
Distressed Jeans & A Blazer



The ripped jeans and blazer combination works with t-shirts, dress shirts and can be paired with high-end sneakers in perhaps white or black, otherwise, a simple brown Chelsea boot will also work nicely. The blazer/jacket and ripped jeans combination is perfect for a night out, concert hopping or drinks at an upmarket establishment. Hell, even do it for date night.
RELATED: How To Wear A Basic T-Shirt
We recommend a classic black blazer more than any other colour. If you’re more daring then burgundy or perhaps a green tuxedo jacket will work too. Maybe match your blazer with your shoes. Yes, both suit and tuxedo jackets are acceptable. Just ensure the jacket is well fitted.
Distressed Jeans & A Leather Jacket



Think of Justin Theroux hitting the town for an evening of awesomeness and frivolity in NYC. That’s when it’s time to bust out your leather or suede jacket to wear with your ripped denim.
The standard style would be a biker jacket… we would avoid anything hooded or too long (in leather only). The Kooples, Saint Laurent and even AllSaints should be suitable for leather jackets to wear with your ripped jeans.
In terms of colours, black tends to work with all denim colours, however, brown suede or leather works better with darker denim.
Distressed Jeans & A Shirt



For dressier occasions like dates and maybe a store opening or fashion week after-party, you may want to combine your ripped jeans with a casual shirt.
Denim (blue or black) shirts, plain button-down shirts and even printed shirts all can compliment the right pair of ripped jeans. Combine with a belt and opt for either partially tucked or completely untucked.
Distressed Jeans & A T-Shirt



When the weather is warm or you’re simply out of fresh ideas then a t-shirt is your saviour. Plain coloured t-shirts are your staple, then consider some branded luxury t-shirts if the budget allows.
Paul Smith sells a great white and black two-pack of t-shirts, otherwise, Topman is a personal recommendation for cheap basic t-shirts. The Gucci and Balmain logo t-shirts will set you back about $500 so go easy there.
Ensure the fit is right and length is enough to cover your midriff… any shorter is a no no.
Distressed Jeans & An Bomber Jacket



For the cooler Spring and Autumn evenings we would recommend pairing your denim with a bomber jacket.
Here you can afford to play with colours, patterns and prints. Reiss, COS, The Kooples and even Zara have some great bomber jackets that won’t break the bank.
Distressed Jeans & An Overcoat



When Winter hits it’s time to layer up. You may be thinking, ‘then why am I wearing jeans with holes’, to which we agree but it’s fashion. So suck it up.
The black denim and camel overcoat is a solid option as too is the blue denim and black overcoat. Acne is making some great overcoats in different hues to suit all shapes.
Layer up with a t-shirt and sweatshirt or think knit from the likes of Uniqlo. Keep the colours basic and let your overcoat do all the talking.
Choose your boots wisely too. Be prepared for rain, hail and shine.

Things are better in three’s, aren’t they? Just take the Musketeers, the Bee Gees and the Marx brothers. So, the same goes for tailoring. It’s time to reconsider the three-piece suit this season, as it finds its way from Pitti Uomo peacocks and the Milanese style cognoscenti, and into the everyday man’s style arsenal.
However, as with all suiting, there are key points to get right before deciding on a three-piece suit. And fabric, cut and colour are only the beginning.
Acting on the advice of Melbourne-based tailor, Jack Liang, co-founder of Trunk Tailors and Rhodes & Beckett in-house suit designer, Christina Exie, there’s more to the three-piece suit than the addition of a classy waistcoat. It’s time to get the trio — jacket, pant, waistcoat — just right.
In This Story…
Focus On Fabric

For summer, it is all about staying fabrics that are comfortable, breathable and versatile enough to help you combat the heat – sans sweat. So, think fresco.
“Fresco is crisp, cool and crease resistant. It is designed with a high twist yarn and is perfect for Australian climate,” says Liang. “I recommend J&J Minnis’ Fresco II book.”
For winter, it is all about textures and adding a bit of character to the usual dull winter. “I definitely recommend flannel,” says Liang. But keep it light. “Fox Brothers’ new book Queen’s award flannel is only 250 grams in weight and was awarded the Queens Award for Industry in 2006. Their new lightweight flannels are perfect for a three-piece.”
Find The Right Fit

Due to the three-piece suit’s formal nature, it looks better cut in a tailored fit: the shoulders of your suit ending at your shoulder edge and a flat hand easily slipping in under the lapels once you’ve fastened the jacket. But not too slim. A normal three piece jacket should be cut roomy enough to button it up comfortably when the waistcoat is worn, says Liang.
“We’ve seen a lot of three-piece suits where the waistcoat fits fine, but the wearer is unable to button their jacket as their tailor didn’t account for the extra room needed.”
Down below, the pant should have a half break to no break at all, and cropped for a contemporary finish. “And with a cuffed hem,” says Exie.
Embrace Colour

Unlike the two-piece, which enjoys a plethora colours and patterns, particularly in summer, the three-piece is retired to neutrals and muted colours.
“Three piece suits tend to be dressier than a regular two-piece,” says Liang. “Therefore, we normally recommend navy, charcoal or light grey as a starting point for a three-piece commission.”
Patterns aren’t off-limits, either. “For a bolder look opt for a prince of wales check in a mid-grey tone,” says Exie. “Or a more subtle black in patterned fabric construction such as the shadow check.”
Mix ‘N’ Match Your Three Piece Suit

And should you wish to throw in a waistcoat in a different colour or pattern, it’s possible — provided you take heed. “It is slightly harder to mix and match different parts of a three-piece,” warns Liang.
A traditionalist at heart, Exie also believes a three-piece suit should always be worn as a full suit – not split. “If you mix and match a three-piece suit, it is no longer a suit. Instead, it becomes an outfit made up of item pieces.”
For dressing down purposes, rather than split, ditch an item. “If you’re after a more casual approach, wear the waistcoat and pants without a jacket and styled with a crisp white shirt, sleeves rolled up and a tie,” adds Exie.
Another mix and match tip is replacing the waistcoat altogether, slipping in knits and or a vest as the ‘meat piece’ in your suit sandwich, says Liang.
“Try a contrast colour cardigan in cashmere or wool, or a nice olive army gilet with a cotton outfit. Lately, the more sporty gilet from brands such as Brunello Cucinelli is the perfect mix-and-match piece. Again, wear it between a suit as a vest substitute.”
Three Piece Suit Waistcoat Rules

As the waistcoat is worn very close to the body, it should be cut with comfort in mind. The length of the waistcoat should cover the belt area of your pant.
“There should be no gap between the waistcoat and the trousers,” says Jack. “This also means no shirt showing in the waist area as it ruins the harmony of the suit.”
The improve the fit, it can also be adjusted with the rear cinch and the waistcoat should always be buttoned up – well, almost. “All the buttons should be secured except for the last button,” says Exie. “Ensure your jacket top button is also secured with the second button left undone.”
Wear It Best

The classic three-piece suit- jacket, trouser and matching waistcoat – is the ultimate black tie number, sitting a notch above the two-piece and on par with the tuxedo.
“The more formal the occasion, the easier it is find an excuse to rock one well,” adds Liang. The three-piece suit is also appropriate to wear at very social settings, such as “the spring races and weddings,” says Exie.
“Style with a light toned block coloured oxford or twill shirt in a soft pink, blue or grey. For a slightly bolder look opt for a vivid tone in a luxurious twill stripe or micro woven pattern,” add Exie.
Simply lighten the colour and fabric, and you’re day party ready. “A cotton three-piece is perfect for a garden party paired with a knit tie. One person that does this extremely well is Alessandro Squarzi,” says Liang.
The dapper suit, however, is a little OTT for the workplace and difficult to pull off in the office. “Unless you’ve earned your stripes,” quips Liang.
Styling Do’s & Don’ts
- Don’t wear a belt to give the suit a contemporary, clean, no fuss finish. But do, if it’s a formal event.
- Don’t wear bold pattern or coloured shirts. “Avoid bold florals and gingham checks,” says Exie.
- Do choose a tie that matches the base-colour of your suit, or the highlight tone of your shirt. “For example, if your suit is charcoal and your shirt highlight tone is purple, then wear a purple block coloured tie,” says Exie.
- Do opt for a higher waisted pants, to “keep the entire outfit in proportion,” says Liang. “There should be no gap between the trousers and the vest, the jacket should be able to be buttoned comfortably without pulling or stretching.”
- Do go for a wider lapel, “to bring the contrast between the sculpted waist and the width of the shoulder on the suit jacket,” says Liang.
- Do play around with personalisation, suggests Exie, thanks to accessories — pocket squares and timepieces — and items that riff on the traditional. “Why not try wearing a pocket watch, instead of wristwatch, with your waistcoat to create an elegant look?”
Three Piece Suit FAQ
Choose your suit material depending on the season. For summer, fabrics that are breathable and crease resistant, such as linen, are your best bet. For winter, opt for textured fabrics like flannel and tweed. Your three piece suit should be cut with enough room for the waistcoat underneath. For the pants, a half break or no break at all is best. Waistcoats should be worn very close to your body, covering your belt area and leaving no gap between it and your trousers. Always keep your waistcoat buttoned up.Which fabric is best for a three piece suit?

Caps are the perfect way to capture an effortlessly cool off-duty look. Whether you’re pairing this staple accessory with jeans, sneakers, a hoodie, or even a camel coat, it’s an easy way to upgrade your casual wear instantly. But you can only do so if you own a cap that’s good-quality and cool.
It’s hard to believe that the very first cap or ‘baseball cap’ was made of straw, worn by the New York Knicks. However, within a few years, the legendary team ditched the straw and began wearing caps cut from fine merino wool. Soon after, everyone was fashioning this hat, and since then the cap has become an omnipresent accessory in American and Western culture.
