Why You Look Terrible In Your Suit

About this video

Centeno teaches six key factors for wearing suits well: ensuring proper fit in critical areas like shoulders and chest, understanding suit construction quality and fabric drape, choosing classic styles over trendy ones, selecting versatile colors and patterns, coordinating accessories at appropriate price levels, and wearing suits regularly to build confidence and familiarity.

Key takeaways

• Centeno argues shoulder fit is the most critical measurement and nearly impossible to alter, while chest and waist can be adjusted by a tailor by up to 1.5 inches in either direction
• Centeno recommends classic styles like two-button suits with notch lapels in navy or charcoal gray, as they withstand time better than trendy cuts with skinny or overly wide lapels
• Centeno emphasizes that higher-end suits use floating canvas construction and fine worsted wool that drapes well, while cheaper suits with synthetic materials and fused canvas may bubble after dry cleaning
• Centeno advises that accessories should match the quality level of the suit—a premium suit paired with cheap shoes or watches will undermine the entire look
• Centeno suggests wearing suits regularly to build confidence and familiarity rather than treating them as costumes worn only for occasional formal events
