How to Get the Perfect Fit According to Your Body Shape

3 minutes read

When it comes to tailoring, achieving the perfect fit is about more than just comfort—it’s about balance, proportion, and confidence. As leading experts in men’s image consulting, we go beyond traditional tailoring. We design, curate, and style entire wardrobes, ensuring every piece works seamlessly together to enhance your personal style and lifestyle. Acting as your tailor, stylist, and image consultant, we guide you at every stage, from the initial design to styling your looks long after your bespoke pieces are crafted.

 

But the key to effortless elegance starts with understanding your body shape. Here’s how we tailor and style your capsule wardrobe to work with your unique proportions, ensuring you always look impeccable.

 

 

For the Broad-Shouldered Gentleman

If you have broad shoulders and a narrower waist, the goal is to create harmony while celebrating your athletic build.

  • Jackets: Opt for lightly structured shoulders to maintain definition without excess bulk. A subtly tapered waist refines your natural V-shape, ensuring a sleek silhouette.
  • Trousers: Straight-leg or subtly tapered trousers balance your proportions. Avoid overly slim cuts, as they may exaggerate your shoulders.
  • Shirts: A tailored slim fit works best, offering shape without restriction.

 

 

For the Tall and Lean Gentleman

If your frame is long and slender, we focus on structure and proportion to create a polished, refined aesthetic.

  • Jackets: Structured shoulders add presence. A double-breasted or slightly longer jacket provides balance.
  • Trousers: Flat-front styles with a tailored taper create a clean, sophisticated look without over-accentuating height.
  • Shirts: Ensuring the right sleeve and hem lengths is key. Layering with subtle patterns and textures adds depth.

 

 

For the Stocky or Muscular Gentleman

A strong, muscular build benefits from tailoring that provides definition without constraint.

  • Jackets: A single-breasted cut with a lower button stance elongates the torso. We refine the chest and shoulder fit while subtly tapering the waist.
  • Trousers: A clean, straight-leg cut ensures a balanced, flattering line.
  • Shirts: Darts at the back provide a tailored silhouette without pulling at the chest.

 

 

For the Shorter Gentleman

Height is all about proportion. Tailoring can subtly elongate your silhouette with the right cuts and details.

  • Jackets: A shorter jacket length accentuates your legs, while a higher button stance and refined lapels guide the eye upward.
  • Trousers: Mid-to-high rise with minimal break elongates the legs for a sharp, streamlined effect.
  • Shirts: The right hem length ensures balance, avoiding an overwhelming look.

 

 

For the Larger Gentleman

Tailoring offers the ultimate refinement, sculpting a confident and streamlined look.

  • Jackets: Structured shoulders create clean lines. A single vent ensures a comfortable yet polished fit.
  • Trousers: A mid-rise, straight-leg trouser offers effortless balance, avoiding extremes of too tight or too loose.
  • Shirts: A well-cut shirt with subtle tapering enhances the frame without excess fabric.

 

 

The Art of Proportions: Our Tailoring Philosophy

  1. Balance is Key – We ensure your wardrobe is a complete, cohesive collection. Broad shoulders? We refine the waist. Shorter frame? We elongate with strategic cuts.
  2. Fabric Matters – Heavier cloths add structure, while lighter materials flow elegantly. We guide you to the best options for your physique and lifestyle.
  3. Details Make the Difference – From button placement to lapel width, every detail is considered to flatter your frame.
  4. Optical Refinement – Clever pattern placement and precise seam positioning subtly shape and enhance your appearance.
  5. The Perfect Break – Your trousers should sit with precision—too long or too short disrupts the flow of your look.

 

 

Why It’s More Than Just Tailoring

We don’t just craft garments; we create a vision for your style, guiding you beyond tailoring to ensure your look is always impeccable.
