In respect to fashion, men’s trends do not change nearly as much as women’s trends do. It seems with men’s fashion that the classics will always rule. A prime example of this is seen men’s suits. Although the style of the suits are always not seasonal, the types of material change.
The new trends in men’s suits are a modern take on the classics. The suits are made of elements of the Victorian Era, 1930s and 1960s to make a modern silhouette.
In picking a suit right now one should look for a style that mimics a military officer. The three key elements would be broad shoulders, slim waist, and slim trousers. Many suits are also coming back with the double-breasted jacket. Originally in the 1980s this suit was designed to hide a plump figure but they have now lost their boxy cut and are designed to accent the well worked masculine body. A great way to show height and a slimmer waist is to get a Kent cut jacket. This is a double-breasted jacket that has a longer lapel line that extends into the waist.
While this is a perfect suit pattern for 2010, 2011 the individual pieces will be classic for years. You can always work components of men’s suiting in without wearing the entire suit.
