Look FLAWLESS In Suits | The Ultimate Guide To Buying Your First Suit
About this video
Centeno provides a comprehensive guide to purchasing a first suit, teaching viewers to prioritize fit, function, and fabric as the foundation of suit selection. He details specific measurements and specifications for jackets and trousers, explains conservative color and style choices, and covers complementary pieces including dress shirts, neckties, shoes, pocket squares, and socks.
Key takeaways
- Centeno argues that suit fit—especially in the shoulders and torso—is non-negotiable; alterations beyond two inches in the torso or one and a half inches in the waist will distort proportions and should be avoided
- Centeno recommends navy or charcoal gray as the best first suit colors due to their versatility and ability to pair with various shirts and accessories, with charcoal gray making the wearer look more mature and navy making them look younger
- Centeno advises against patterned suits, peak lapels, ticket pockets, and light-colored or heavily decorated dress shoes for a first suit, recommending instead classic details like notch lapels, double vents, and closed-lacing shoes in black or dark brown
