The galactic guide for young professionals: braces

In approaching bespoke tailoring it is important not to neglect the attention to detail, which can make the difference in the look and create that extra touch of refinement. Today we are talking about suspenders, an accessory that has the advantage of slimming the figure of the man as opposed to the belt and with which interesting combinations can be created in combination with different types of clothes.

First of all, it is good to know that the straps can be structured in a Y or X shape. In the first case the rear part of the braces joins and continues with a single arm, while in the second case the two braces cross on the back. In addition, the final part of the suspenders can be fastened to the trousers via a clip or button. To wear the suspenders it is always advisable to attach them to the trousers before wearing them, leaving them quite wide, and then go on to adjust them afterwards. Remember that the suspenders must not pull or be a constriction: their function is to support the trousers, but always delicately and without becoming uncomfortable.

Suspenders can add a touch of originality and class to your looks: here are some tips for different occasions.
At work, for example, you could wear a blue pinstripe suit. In this case, combine a red suspender to give a twist of color and panache. If you want to be daring, you can also choose a checkered pattern in shades of red to give more movement.
For a more elegant occasion, combine it with the classic tuxedo with white suspenders, perhaps in silk if you want to be a real lord. This look will be perfect for a theater outing, a ceremony or a cocktail party.
Finally, if you feel you have a dandy soul, you can dare with a red dress combined with paisley patterned suspenders. A particular look with character, which you can wear on many different occasions, from an aperitif to an informal party.
