While fashion is constantly changing, there are a few items every man should have in his wardrobe. Having these staple pieces makes it a lot easier to always have a go-to look available that will leave you feeling stylish and confident. Not only this, but you can pair these pieces with just about anything and they are guaranteed to look good. Life isn’t always about making a statement, but instead making sure you have items at the ready that will make you look fashionable and sophisticated.
As we reach the end of 2020 it’s a good time to reflect back on the year and get ready to start fresh. One thing a lot of people look to do is go through their wardrobe and think about what clothing we have worn this year and what we should really be getting rid of, as well as trying on some of our staple pieces and seeing what still fits. This year, instead of simply throwing out old clothing, it could be a good idea to instead think about what can be repurposed. With all of us being at home for a large majority of 2020, there are a lot of pieces that haven’t been worn as much as they could have. These items may still have a lot of life in them, so save yourself some money and help the environment by looking at how they can be reused.
The perfect pair of trousers can really up your fashion game, but how do we know what style to choose? Choosing the perfect pair of trousers for you can be a frustrating experience when you don’t know what you are looking for. You want something that is flattering for your body type, camouflages any areas you feel self conscious of, while also adding versatility and style to your wardrobe.
Now that autumn is here, we are seeing a shift in fashion trends. As the weather gets colder we have to change up the clothes we’re wearing. Just because it is getting colder doesn’t mean all fashion needs to go out the window! There are plenty of fashionable autumn trends that you can get involved in. You may even have some clothes from last year that you’d like to wear, which is where clothing alterations come in. Keep reading for the autumn 2019 fashion trends you need to know about.
Although many of you may have impeccable taste when it comes to outfit choice, many of you are not dressing to compliment your body type. There are plenty of different physiques and it can be hard to pick out which category your body fits into.

This could mean balancing your bodies proportions out or highlighting the more flattering areas of your body, regardless we are here to attend to your needs.

Re-visit that old coat
Coats are a diverse and fundamental lynchpin to many of our outfits. They can be worn to enhance many outfits all year around. But unfortunately the inevitable happens and we either end up forgetting about and throwing coats to the back of the wardrobe to never see the light of day as we outgrow them, or they pick up the general signs of wear and tear and are thrown away. Have no fear our master tailors are here to save your treasured coat, with a few Coat Alterations we can breathe new life into old coats, bringing them back into the modern day.

A well fitted outfit is a must have for any big day or event. It says something about the person, tailored clothing conveys class and elegance. A gentleman in well tailored clothes conveys importance.
Take a minute to look around you next time you’re out and about and you’ll soon see just how different all of our bodies really are. Even men who are of a similar height and weight can have dramatically different body shapes, with the length of your legs, torso and arms and the width of your shoulders, waist and thighs all having a big impact on the way that a suit looks and fits.
This can make it almost impossible to find clothes that fit perfectly. Unless they’ve been made for you, suits, jeans and jackets off the peg probably won’t look quit right when you put them on. Luckily there is a way to transform your wardrobe and make your clothes work for you: alterations. Quick and affordable, a little nip here and a tuck there will help your clothes to fit you perfectly and help you to look great every day.
