There are several barometers that indicate whether or not a suit is up-to-date: the shape and length of the jacket, the width of the lapels, the jacket’s button stance and back vents, the pleats in the trousers. Although change in men’s clothing is evolutionary rather than revolutionary, after a few years your old suits will start to look dated. For example, the length of a suit coat today is three to four centimeters shorter than it was just three years ago. (Our...

They’re a checklist that Andrew Davis has developed for its clients. Why is it worth reviewing this list? Because there really are unwritten rules and conventions, and there is a downside to not knowing them. Consider, for instance, the plight of the man who shows up for the day-long off-site conference in his business suit when everyone else is corporate casual. He might as well wear a sign that says, “Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer.” Conversely, there’s the guy who wears khakis and a golf shirt with logo (Aiiiieeee!!!!) to a presentation...

Well, let me tell you, just because you don’t care about your appearance, doesn’t mean your boss / exclusive restaurant host / girlfriend /colleagues don’t.  No...

A regular clean does more than just stop the piece smelling: it also brings up the fibres, brings back colour and, perhaps unexpectedly, helps with pilling. A new sweater should be worn two or three times, and then washed. This will help settle the fibres and decrease the amount it will pill. Doing so regularly in the future will also reduce pilling over time. The finer a cashmere is, the longer the fibres, so it can be more susceptible...

Edward Armah took his first humble steps into the world of fashion about ten years ago. While managing a fashion segment, In Style, at a local radio station in his native country Ghana, he developed an intense passion for the fashion industry. In 1998, Armah went to London, United Kingdom, to learn more about fashion. He worked in a custom shop, where he concentrated on fashion design and he sketched clothing styles for leisure. Soon, he realized that London could not quench his escalating thirst for fashion. Meet...

First and foremost, socks and underwear are the foundation of your wardrobe.  YOU should care because when you wear a great pair of socks and underwear, you feel great and by choosing a bold colour you get a quick mood enhancer.  Don’t believe it, try a pair of red socks and see how you feel.  After...
