Perfect Fit – What Is That?

Blazer

The jacket is the hardest part of the suit to adjust afterwards, so it's important that it fits correctly from the start.

Fit guide
CHEST: The jacket should provide enough room without causing creases on the lapels. If the fabric pulls tight, you need a larger size.

SHOULDERS: The shoulder seam should end exactly at the outermost point of your shoulder and fall straight down. If the fabric bulges out, it is too small; if the shoulders appear sunken, it is too large.

WAIST: The jacket should follow your silhouette without being too tight. You should be able to pinch about 10-20 cm of fabric at the stomach without it feeling restrictive.
Fit guide
SLEEVE LENGTH: About 1 cm of the shirt cuff should be visible at the wrist. The shirt should end at the base of the thumb.

LENGTH: When standing relaxed with your arms at your sides, the jacket should end around the knuckles.

Trousers

A well-fitted pair of trousers should be comfortable and create a harmonious line with the jacket.

WAIST:The trousers should stay up without a belt but not be so tight that they feel uncomfortable. Depending on the model and personal style, the waist can sit at different heights, but it should always feel natural.
Trouser guide
LENGTH: The trousers should just touch the shoe without creating excessive fabric folds. If they have turn-ups, the same principle applies. The crease should remain straight and neat.

WIDTH: The trousers should have enough width to maintain the shape of the crease while still allowing for comfortable movement.
