6 details when wearing a suit that make you look much older
By Paloma González
The details of a suit are what make all the difference, they can make it look more expensive, cheaper, perfect or unkempt, and it's also what makes you look young, hip, and hip, or like a much older man who's stuck in time (and maybe doesn't have mirrors in his house).
The advantage of suits is that there are classic styles that don't go out of style, don't change and look good without much effort, but just because something is classic doesn't mean it doesn't need a few updates and you don't have to pay attention to all those elements that make it perfect or ruin it.
And there are two types of men with suits, those who seem to have found the secret so that everything always looks good (like David Beckham, Paul Rudd, Keanu Reeves, etc…) or those who always look a little out of place, disheveled and aged (or like waiters who have had to repeat the same uniform over and over again because they were only given one).
To look young, your clothes play a huge role, things like color and fit can make a big difference (for better or worse), and when wearing a suit there are a few details that are essential.
Details in a suit that make you look old:
Fabric that shines
Suits, even the most expensive ones, have a lifespan, and if you overdo the washing and ironing, then the fabric (especially the more synthetic ones) can wear off. return shiny, this shows that it has been used a lot and that you have not replaced it in a long time, in addition to being a sign of carelessness in appearance and that you did not give essential care to each garment.
Pairing with a thick tie
The style of your tie is very important (of course the suit can be worn without a tie and with other clothes instead of a shirt, but there are cases in which the tie is very important) and there too many mistakes can be made.
Very long or very short sleeves and legs
Do you want it to look like your older brother lent you the suit or that it no longer fits? When something is too long or too short, you look careless, disheveled and with a bad silhouette, and that not only makes you look bad, but it can also add years, which is why having a trusted tailor is very important. Slightly shorter pants are currently in trend, so long pants can also make you look dated.
It fits you wide
The fit or adjustment of the clothes is very important, it is what gives you a cleaner and more stylized silhouette and creates the illusion that everything was created for you. When clothes are too baggy and baggy on you, it seems that you have no shape or structure, and that is also a point that makes you less attractive. Your clothes also look old and unkempt, and that reflects on yourself and the way others perceive you.
The shoulder pads
To wear shoulder pads or not? You can use them to make your shoulders look more structured, but there are shoulder pads to shoulder pads. Small and subtle ones can take you a long way, bigger or overdone ones make you look like you stepped out of an 80s video and add to your age, especially since you seem unaware of how people dress nowadays And what are the trends?
Outdated trends
Finally, there are trends that mark a moment in life or a decade, but that disappear over time, and when they return they do so in a different way and adapted to the context.
Wearing a clearly old trend (without adding current elements to bring it up to date) isn't like wearing vintage clothing, rather it helps the world to place you in the past, thereby adding many more years to it and making it look like it's gone. You haven't refreshed your closet in a long time.
