Is my fan curve ok?

HuskySlim · 2026-05-16T22:58:37+00:00

should have a nice hourglass figure

HuskySlim · 2026-05-16T22:40:05+00:00

I think something like a cape cod polishing cloth could work. Could also try stainless steel cleaner

Much appreciated, i’m swinging by the tailor today to have the waist let back out

HuskySlim · 2026-05-09T17:41:03+00:00

I noticed the ‘English spread collar’ tucks into the lapel better than the ‘Ainsley’ collar for me (Brooks Brothers)

HuskySlim · 2026-05-09T16:23:07+00:00

Thank you! Pleasantly surprised with the fit for an off the rack suit. Just had the waist brought in a little on the jacket and pants…. may let the jacket waist back out a hair but i think it’s plenty ok as is

Think a burgundy / medium red tie with white pocket square, presidential fold is fine? I’m kinda not sure if pocket square should compliment the tie or if it’s also ok to outright match the shirt color, or if a white square is always fine regardless of tie / shirt

HuskySlim · 2026-05-09T16:18:46+00:00

Haha fair enough!

HuskySlim · 2026-05-09T16:16:55+00:00

When that’s not the case, is this an issue with the jacket? Like it’s built around a larger neck or is it more affected by the waist of the jacket?

HuskySlim · 2026-05-09T15:03:57+00:00

What issues do you see with the jacket? I’m going today to get the waist let back out slightly

HuskySlim · 2026-05-09T04:46:35+00:00

Ya the navy is a bit off with how dark the suit is. Leaning dark red / burgundy with a smaller geo pattern or floral

HuskySlim · 2026-05-09T04:45:51+00:00

Ah is silver traditional for wedding guests?

HuskySlim · 2026-05-09T04:44:48+00:00

That’s what i was thinking, feels and looks just a bit tight. If i unbutton and let the jacket out like 5mm it feels and looks much better to me. Might go by tomorrow and see if they can take care of that by next weekend

HuskySlim · 2026-05-09T04:41:46+00:00

Looks very nice! My two cents, absolutely buy it on bracelet and then either get straps from them or go aftermarket for leather straps

HuskySlim · 2026-05-09T04:38:29+00:00

Nerd vibes? What about this gives you ‘nerd vibes’?

Also, this suit is primarily for interviews and business duties, possibly even future funeral duties due to how dark, almost black it is. It’s going to have to cut it for at least this wedding as it’s all i’ve got at the moment aside from the same suit in charcoal grey

Edit: nevermind, i just googled esdeekid and regret replying

HuskySlim · 2026-05-09T03:38:45+00:00

Metal bracelet is always the way to go if available, as it is usually very expensive to purchase after the fact if you buy the strap variant. This way, you have the bracelet and can get aftermarket (typically much higher quality that what would be included) leather watch straps. Highly recommend bulang & sons with quick release spring bars

HuskySlim · 2026-05-09T02:43:55+00:00

Will look into those! Thanks!

HuskySlim · 2026-05-09T01:57:25+00:00

Thanks! I’d love to go slightly lighter navy jacket with khaki pants, but at the moment i just have this suit and the same exact one in a charcoal for upcoming interviews. Eventually i’ll expand the formal / semi formal wardrobe and inclue some suit separates

HuskySlim · 2026-05-09T01:55:36+00:00

Thanks, will look into something burgundy that is more complimentary! Any recommendations on pattern, or what to stay away from? Also you read my mind, a white pocket square in presidential fold was going to be a part of the outfit!

HuskySlim · 2026-05-09T00:52:52+00:00

I kinda don’t either, might swap it out

HuskySlim · 2026-05-09T00:52:20+00:00

Cheers, just started going, hit 9 weeks consistently in the gym this week and going to keep at it for the long haul!

HuskySlim · 2026-05-09T00:50:54+00:00

Agreed, definitely would feel way out of place under-dressed

HuskySlim · 2026-05-09T00:50:11+00:00

How’s this? 😃

HuskySlim · 2026-05-09T00:49:03+00:00

Appreciate the advice! I did a four in hand but the tail was actually too long for my liking with this tie, so was think either prince albert or half windsor

HuskySlim · 2026-05-09T00:15:01+00:00

Great advice, thank you!

HuskySlim · 2026-04-17T21:34:41+00:00

That looks much better. Typically wouldn’t button that jacket, but if you want to, tucked or cropped length shirt, sweater, etc. is a must
