When it comes to weddings, grooms may not realise it, but they tend to have the upper hand in the fashion stakes. Not only does throwing on a suit give a guy instant 007 appeal but it’s also insanely easy to look trim in a suit. Here are a few ways that wearing a wedding suit can make you look slim.
Posture
When you are being measured for your suit, make sure you keep your normal posture. Men often have a habit of puffing out their chest when being fitted, but it won’t reflect how you actually normally carry yourself on the big day.
Jacket
If you’re short, ask for slanted pockets in your jacket. This will elongate your frame and give the illusion that you are taller and slimmer than you actually are.
Alterations
Check if your tailor includes last minute alterations. In the last few weeks leading up to the ceremony, it’s hard to tell what will happen. You may gain wait from fun stag dos or lose weight from all the work that is involved in wedding planning.
