Buy What Suit Color FIRST? (Hint: NOT Black)

About this video

Centeno advises men building their first suit wardrobe on which colors to prioritize. He argues that navy suits are the best starting point for most men due to their versatility and universal acceptance in business settings. He recommends avoiding black suits as too formal and overpowering, while suggesting charcoal gray as an alternative for men with lighter complexions or graying hair.

Key takeaways

• Centeno recommends navy as the go-to first suit color because it works with most shirts, can be dressed up or down, and is universally accepted in business environments
• Centeno argues against black suits for beginners, contending the color is too formal and creates excessive contrast that can overpower lighter complexions
• Centeno suggests charcoal gray as an alternative for men with lighter skin tones, graying hair, or red hair, as lighter shades won’t overwhelm their appearance
