Guide to your Perfect Suit

Designing the perfect suit can be a daunting process. Unique Threads has created a simple guide that walks you through the process from selection of the fabric color and material to choosing the right fit and design details. We will help you craft a custom-made suit from scratch for any occasion whether it be a client meeting or your next formal event.

The Fit

When it comes to the fit of your next suit/ tuxedo there are three main cuts available, each suited for different body types and various occasions:

Slim Fit

The more fashionable and trendy cut, it contours to the body and exudes style and confidence. It looks best on men with a slim build.

Regular Fit

It’s a hybrid cut that works well for men with a larger build. A modern cut that slightly tapers in across the chest.

Relaxed Fit

Conservative cut that works best for those men with larger frames. The relaxed fit is much more practical for those comfort-lovers.

The Color

There are endless colors to choose from, we have dissected the 4 most common suit colors below and highlighted which colors work best for the specific occasion:

Black

You can really express your style with our wide-selection of single and double-breasted button options. Make a bold statement with the double-breasted option or choose from the 1, 2 or 3 button single-breasted.

Gray

Dark gray is a great choice for everyday wear and is versatile enough for almost any color combination. The light gray suit is trendier and can be worn during any season and can be dressed with almost any shirt color.

Beige

Beige works best for the spring and summer months and looks amazing on a white dress shirt. Be the life of the party in your custom-fit beige suit at your next outdoor summer event.

Blue

Navy blue works well for the office while brighter blues are a little more playful. But the best part of a blue suit is that it’s both eye-catching and versatile. For a shirt, try white, light pink, or a colorful pattern.

The Details

The devil is in the details! Unique Threads offers an array of customizations to choose from to personalize your next suit/ tuxedo. Here are the options we have available:

Button

A huge favorite of consumers, cotton suits are versatile and can be worn to any occasion. Cotton fabric looks great on most body types and perfect for practically any season.

Lapel

Notch lapels are best for suits you would wear in the workplace. The shawl lapel is perfect for the nightlife and formal events like weddings. Peak lapels are a perfect hybrid.

Vent

Vents are less about fashion and more about comfort. Choose from the single, double and no vent. Men with larger frames are better suited selecting the double vent.

Trouser Options

Almost all trousers come with belt loops, why not separate yourself from everyone else and add tab adjusters to your next trousers. Tab adjusters are a unique addition, they eliminate the need for a belt.

The Materials

Not all fabrics are created equal, it’s important to consider the cloth and thread count when selecting your next fabric. Breathability and fabric softness are two factors that differentiate a lighter polyester fabric from a heavier wool fabric.

Cotton

A huge favorite of consumers, cotton suits are versatile and can be worn to any occasion. Cotton fabric looks great on most body types and perfect for practically any season.

Polyester

Most commonly blended with wool or cotton, it produces a more fabric shine compared to other fabrics. Polyester doesn’t breathe as well, so it’s for the fall and spring season, great for the office or formal events.

Linen

A huge favorite of consumers, cotton suits are versatile and can be worn to any occasion. Cotton fabric looks great on most body types and perfect for practically any season.

Wool

Best for the fall and winter season, it’s highly durable and wrinkle free, common wool types include tweed, worsted or a blend. Wool fabrics stand out and at the higher-end of the fabric spectrum. Great quality!

Velvet

Supreme quality, and very soft and luxurious. Velvet blazers should be reserved for special occasions such as dinner parties or the big day.
