For many, dressing like a man who looks like he just walked out of a “Mad Men” set can very well be the definition of a gentleman. But, looking dapper in a bespoke suit doesn’t always equate to being a gentleman, as we also need to see chivalry, good behaviour and principles. However, people don’t instantly know who you are in seconds – so it’s what you’re wearing that gives the first impression. And believe me, you do want to create a perfect first impression because, as you may already know, society can be highly judgemental. So why not play along with this game and impress your boss, clients and the ladies?
Looking stylish and elegant doesn’t have to cost you a fortune. But hey – as we know, nothing good comes easy. Or cheap. So we will point out the things that you need to invest in. Some things may seem way too expensive at first but if they are good quality, they will last and earn their price.
The first thing we will say is that investing in a finely tailored suit is always a good idea. Made to measure will always fit you better than the ones in a department store. Even the most high end ones won’t be that well fitted for you – unless you have the body of a mannequin, which in real life doesn’t happen that often. If the suit is too tight or too loose you will end up looking and feeling awkward, but if the suit is fitted according to your body measurements, you’ll feel much more confident. A professional tailor pays a lot of attention to every aspect of the process – from trimming, detailing and cutting, to the relationship between him and his client. It’s remarkable, so if you’re looking for a sartorial elegance that is simple yet stylish, make an appointment:
www.lgfgfashionhouse.comAlthough we are a fashion business and want our clients to dress impeccably, we much admit, it’s not only the suit that makes a man. If you’ve got that perfect suit, you’ll need to compliment it with equally high-quality accessories to complete your look. More particularly – you will need good cufflinks, tie (neck tie or bow tie), pocket square (preferably 100% silk) and nice socks that won’t take down the style points of your look. And about the leather products: yes, these also need to be impeccable! Whether they are good or bad, your shoes really are the first thing people will notice (LGFG Fashion House also provides excellent quality hand-crafted footwear), so investing in a good pair of shoes is a must. The same goes for belt and briefcase if you need one. Good quality leather products will cost more but they don’t necessarily have to be world-known designer names. If you are not after the names then it’s possible to find ones at quite affordable prices.
One more accessory you’ll need is a watch. Let’s face it, a timepiece commands prestige and power to the man who is wearing one. A watch is no longer about telling time since most of us have our smartphones for that. In the watch department, it’s a bit more difficult because designer names are a big deal in the world of quality watches. However, they too have very different price ranges so we suggest you do a bit of research about the brands that are in your price range. A watch is probably one of the most stylish jewellery pieces for men to wear without being pretentious. If diamonds are a girl’s best friends, then a watch is a man’s.
Now, time for the final touch. Well, actually this could be the first thing after all as it won’t cost you that much- invest in yourself! Find a great hairstylist. You surely don’t want to wear fine clothes with hair that looks like as though you’ve just gone through a bad storm. The popularity of cool and stylish barber shops is growing all around the world, so you just may want to check into it. Another thing to invest in is a sports club membership. I know, we all have busy life but nothing beats being healthy and confident in your own body. Yes, after you look like the fine and dapper gentleman that you want to be, remember that one last ingredient needed to charm anyone you meet: Confidence!
