If you work in a larger city, let's say New York or Chicago, then you'll see these more often, but usually it's going to be in the banking, in the finance, people that deal with money – I don't know what the exact association is. Let's say you've got a profession and the professions that usually lean towards pinstripes are going to be in the finance industry. Pinstripe Suit #2: Professions and Pinstripes

And then you can go with the pinstripe.īecause of versatility. Let's just say that you've got those, you've got the four solids, you've got the black tie, and this will be your sixth suit. And even ahead of that, I may even say a Prince of Wales jacket or I've got some other ones that I would recommend. So already we've got five suits and even if you threw one out the window, that would come in at number five, the pinstripe. And if you're owning that many suits and you're wearing suits every day, then I would say that you're going to have the opportunity to wear a black tie at least once or twice a year, so it should be considered in there. And after that, you want to maybe look at a light gray, a medium gray, or a tuxedo.Īnd why would you want to have black tie?

So navy and charcoal solid suits, those should be in every man's wardrobe. Those suits don't necessarily draw attention to themselves because they're very simple, they're very classic, and many people aren't going to notice if one day you're wearing a navy, one day you're wearing a charcoal, one day you're wearing a medium grey, so those three. The great thing with the solid navy, the solid charcoal, the solid medium grey, the solid light grey is that you could wear those almost every day and change out your shirt, change out your tie, change your pocket square, perhaps even sometimes change your shoe style and you're going to find that people are not going to notice.
