The Tall Slim Man


High but not so mighty. Suits for the tall slim man.

With fashions and styles changing on a daily basis it's very important that the tall slim man keeps up to date with the latest trends. Obviously it is also important that you feel relaxed and comfortable in the clothes that you wear.

Being relaxed and comfortable becomes more difficult if you are very tall and slim and is only possible if you wear a very well fitted suit. For a start, if you'll suit is ill fitting you will certainly not be relaxed because you will be so aware of how you look in your suit and self-conscious of it.

All tall slim men should wear clothes that don’t give you a fragile appearance, therefore it's even more important that you have a very good made to measure fitting. It would certainly be preferable to opt for heavyweight fabric which will give the appearance of adding to your frame. The best materials are the heavier wools or a tweed.

When the tall person chooses to buy his new men’s suit he should always opt for the lighter colors. Black and Navy blue will have a slimming effect whereas lights grays or even light blue will add weight to the wearer. Or so it will appear.

Certainly avoid any suit or other clothing for that matter with vertical stripes. Patterns are better and horizontal stripes the best, although it would probably be difficult to purchase a suit with bold horizontal stripes.

The precise fit is so important because if your clothes are too baggy the impression will be that there is very little body inside them. If your clothes are too tight a fit all you will succeed in doing is emphasizing that same point.

It is also vital to avoid at all costs any form of shoulder pads in your jacket. Any padding of any kind whatsoever in this area will give you the appearance of a gridiron quarterback without the physique.

If you are tall but not correctly dressed it is very easy to have an almost comical appearance. This would be fine if you wanted to look funny. Therefore be sure to follow the advice given above to assist in making the most of what you already have. There is now no excuse for the tall slim man to be mistaken for a tall skinny man.
