Men's vest: how to wear it

Are you looking for a 'must have' garment that is elegant but sober and perfect for the season autumn? One of our advice is definitely the Gilet, an unmissable garment for those who always want maintain a casual but never banal style.
Its main function is to cover the braces, for those who still use them. Some wear it with the belt but it is a combination that Fimelato does not recommend, since their combination could make the overall waist is more cumbersome: the waistcoat could also rise continuously which would become unsightly making the wearer very clumsy, and we don't want such an effect? Especially for those who are always attentive to details, certainly the vest moves better with other garments!
The use of a bow tie is also not recommended because it does not suit a three-piece suit.
The combination that makes the suit with the vest always at the top is, rather, the one with the tie! Do you want to know how?

The tie is a male accessory that never goes out of fashion: it makes every suit elegant and suitable for any more formal occasion, with an always impeccable style. What better use of the tie in this case than to combine it with the vest? It makes the whole garment classic and always flawless.
Those who prefer a more dandy style could omit it and opt for the open shirt collar, but certainly for more informal occasions.
We also recommend always wearing the vest with the shirt collar buttoned. Also for this reason we suggest the use of a tie, in order to emphasize the formal cut of the suit.
Yes, therefore, to this splendid combination!

As seen, the best way to wear the vest is together with a collared shirt buttoned and under a single-breasted jacket.
Furthermore, a tip is to keep the jacket slightly open, so as to let you glimpse the waistcoat. Don't worry, it won't look sloppy, but in this way you will be able to show every detail of the suit!
As for the length, this must adapt perfectly to the body: it must cover the entire front part of the torso, usually remaining slightly shorter at the sides.
That is why it is advisable to always rely on a tailor-made vest, because in this way it will always be adapted to the physicality of the subject.
