1. Never, ever, never, use the outside pockets of a jacket. You will destroy the shape of the jacket by doing this. WON'T SOMEONE PLEASE THINK OF THE JACKET?!

But what about your pocketwatch? (or, more contemporarily, a slip of paper, or whatver?)

Didn't think of the deforming factor. Still frustrating, though!

internal pockets =P

seremify007 summed it up; the internal pockets are for using. but you still shouldn't put anything to bulky in them.

 

[seremify007]

Put phone in your internal pocket, and maybe a pen.

Wallet in pants.

Gun in shoe.

 

[seremify007]

Never go to a job interview with a loaded gun.

You never know if there are gonna be hot chicks around =] jkjk

Wow! I'm impressed. Where from? -- or does PC have their own stores...? (Shows how down with suits I am; warning about buying ones with fake pockets, then asking about where they sell them... ) (BTW the fake-pocketed ones were from Roger David for $150. Avoid.)

Well Myer had 25% off all suits at the time, so that brought the price down from $800 to $600.

And there is nothing wrong with pinstripes. Not only are they actually very much in fashion at the moment, but subtle pinstripes on a decent suit look very sharp. Of course, use your judgment --



Good, subtle pinstripes:

Too bold pinstripes:

Shocking pinstripes:

 

[seremify007]

Haha yeh for a low-level job don't wanna bring out the super bold pinstripes- I've seen even more subtle pinstripes than that- as in they are barely noticable... but anyway, make sure you pick a suitable tie as well to wear with it.

 

[MoonlightSonata]

Mr Shore and Mr Crane were not wearing bold pinstripes....

 

[RIZAL]

..... wear a light pastel colour maybe blue?

 

[05er]

Isn't wearing a black suit a bit flamboyant? It just reminds me of my formal.

I think a dark grey, navy suit would be best.

 

[ND]

Don't wear brown unless you're a long term investor.

 

[datAsianGuy]

yeah... go dark grey with a subtle pin stripe....black is so... yeah.... blah... Dark grey is proffessional

 

[loquasagacious]

It's a first suit so black is better as its more universal.

BTW Moonlight hit the nail on the head with the just right pinstripes. Especially good is the first shot where a blue shirt/tie is also used. Notice how very modern, sophisticated, powerful and even tall it makes him look.

As a note though a bold person can get away with the 'too bold pinstripes'.

 

[seremify007]

What kindof job are you being interviewed for may I ask?

 

[RIZAL]

Don't wear brown unless you're a long term investor.

hahahahahahaha.

 

[seremify007]

Btw if you're from a priv shool you could wear your school uniform + blazer (if it looks really good).

 

[sikeveo]

i just got my suit, black with subtle pin stripes (pretty faint).

 

[seremify007]

Good stuff... I think it's more important for a suit to fit well than for it to be flashy/nice design. Hope yours fits well! People have often complimented my suit because it fits well- but they do not know it was a cheapo <$200 suit.

 

[Atticus.]

personally i think its the colour of the tie and shirt that can make or break a suit
