What to Wear for Your Body Type (A Gentleman's Fit Guide)
Not all bodies are created equal—and that's precisely why one-size-fits-all clothing doesn't work. The suit that looks exceptional on your colleague might look completely wrong on you, not because of quality, but because it doesn't account for your unique body proportions, frame, and build. The secret to looking exceptional isn't finding the "perfect suit"—it's finding the suit that's perfect for your body type. This is where bespoke tailoring transforms from luxury into necessity. When you understand your body type and dress strategically for it, you don't just look better—you look like the best version of yourself.
At A Hand Tailored Suit, we believe every gentleman deserves clothing that celebrates his unique physique rather than fighting against it. Whether you're tall and lean, broad-shouldered, shorter in stature, or carrying extra weight, there are strategic tailoring choices, fabric selections, and styling approaches that will make you look confident, powerful, and authentically yourself. Your body type isn't a limitation—it's the foundation for creating your signature look.
