Let’s face it: a well-fitted suit is the key to looking sharp at any wedding. Whether you're the groom, a groomsman, or a guest, the right suit fit makes all the difference. But how do you ensure that your suit fits like a glove? Here's your ultimate guide to nailing the fit for a wedding, with a little help from Conway’s Menswear!
1. Get Your Suit From a Shop With a Tailor
An off-the-rack suit is just the beginning — tailoring is what transforms it into a masterpiece! Shopping at a place that offers in-house tailoring ensures your suit is customized to your unique measurements and preferences. At Conway's Menswear, our expert in-house tailors ensure your suit is perfectly altered.
We understand the importance of every stitch and seam, guaranteeing a fit that complements your body and enhances your style. From adjusting sleeve lengths to refining the jacket fit, our tailors work magic to make you look flawless on the big day. You shouldn’t have to settle for a suit that’s “good enough” when we can tailor and make adjustments specifically for you.
2. Look for a Welcoming Environment
Shopping for a suit should be an enjoyable experience, not a stressful one. The right store will make you feel welcome and comfortable exploring different styles and making important decisions about your outfit. At Conway’s Menswear, we pride ourselves on creating this warm and inviting environment.
Our team is here to guide you every step of the way, from selecting fabrics to choosing accessories. Finding the perfect suit should be a fun and relaxed experience, not a rushed or overwhelming one. Take your time, feel good about your choices, and don’t hesitate to ask questions. Our friendly, knowledgeable staff is always here to help!
3. Find a Tailor You’re Comfortable With
The relationship between you and your tailor is crucial. You need to feel comfortable discussing your preferences and any concerns about your fit. Our team takes the time to get to know you, understand your style, and listen to your needs.
Whether it’s advice on the latest trends or simply wanting to stick with a classic look, our stylists are here to help you every step. Communication is key. Don’t be shy about sharing what you like or dislike. Trust your stylist’s expertise but make sure your voice is heard.
4. Pick a Suit Style That Suits Your Body
Not all suits are created equal and what looks great on one person might not be the best choice for another. Finding a suit style that flatters your body and shape is essential to looking your best. At Conway’s, we offer a range of styles to suit every body type.
Our stylists are trained to help you find the cut and fit that highlights your best features. From slim fit to classic cut, we’ve got you covered. Pay attention to details like jacket length, shoulder fit, and how the pants sit on your waist and thighs. Don’t be afraid to try on different styles — you might be surprised by what works best for you!
5. Get Properly Measured
Getting properly measured is the foundation of a well-fitted suit. Even the best suit can look sloppy if it’s not sized correctly. This is why we take measurements seriously. Our experienced staff will ensure that every aspect of your suit, from the chest and shoulders to the waist and inseam, is measured with precision.
This attention to detail guarantees that your suit will fit like it was made just for you — because it essentially is! Avoid measuring yourself and always have a professional do it. If your measurements change (weight loss, muscle gain, etc.), don’t hesitate to get remeasured before final alterations.
