Clothing Tips for Tall - Thin - Skinny Men - Menswear Advice Video for a Man 6 Foot or Taller

About this video

Centeno provides styling guidance specifically for tall, thin men, addressing the challenge of finding well-fitting clothing. He explains how tailors can help adjust garments, recommends specific brands and services for different clothing categories, and emphasizes the importance of proper proportions and fit to create a balanced appearance.

Key takeaways

  • Centeno argues that tall, thin men should prioritize finding clothing that is close to proper fit before tailoring, as extreme alterations can disrupt proportions and garment lines
  • Centeno recommends avoiding trousers with excessively long rises, as this shortens the leg line; he suggests looking for brands like AG Jeans that cater to taller frames
  • Centeno recommends wearing well-fitted jackets as essential for tall, thin men because they build out the shoulders and create visual proportion, potentially making a significant difference in overall appearance
  • Centeno suggests considering custom shirts, longer ties (62 inches or more at 3.75 inches wide), and services like Hendricks Park for personalized shopping assistance as solutions for hard-to-fit body types
