Never Overlook the Importance of A Well-Tailored Waistcoat!

Waistcoats or suit vests are an important part of men’s formal wear. They can add a touch of class and sophistication to any outfit, making them a staple of traditional menswear. While waistcoats are typically worn with three-piece suits, suit vests can be worn with both two-piece and three-piece suits, as well as with more casual outfits. Whether you prefer the classic look of a waistcoat or the versatility of a suit vest, incorporating these garments into your formalwear repertoire can help you create a polished and stylish appearance that will leave a lasting impression.

Even if you’re not usually the type to wear anything other than the standard two-piece suits, you should still consider adding waist coats to your repertoire. Here are some reasons why you should never underestimate the importance of a well-tailored suit vest.

First, a waistcoat will complete your formal attire and enhance it. There’s a reason why the three-piece suit is considered the traditionally elegant choice for men. It’s sophisticated and sharp, perfect for various occasions, from weddings to business meetings. 

Waistcoats also let you layer up fashionably. This will certainly come in handy during those colder months when you need extra warmth. Similarly, you can just as easily shed the layers with a waistcoat. A man will look infinitely more handsome with a waistcoat, even when his suit jacket is off. 

Another reason why you should wear waistcoats is how it enhances your silhouette. A well-tailored mens suit vest will make your waist appear slimmer and shoulders broader. This effect gives you a stronger and more masculine appearance. 

Additionally, waistcoats give you the opportunity to simultaneously experiment with different styles. Just by adding a waistcoat, you can add depth, give a pop of color, or make a bold statement with your formal attire. A good waistcoat can help you showcase your personal style and make an otherwise boring outfit much more stylish.

Even though waistcoats were originally created as formal wear, they’re not strictly limited for formal events. In fact, they’re much more popular for daily wear than ever before. Wearing a waistcoat is a fantastic way to dress up your regular attire for drinks, dates, dinners, and meetings.

Different Types of Waistcoat

A men’s waistcoat is the ultimate piece in gentleman’s formal attire. But did you know that waistcoats come in many different styles? Wherever you’re headed, you’re guaranteed to find your match!

Single-Breasted Waistcoat

The single-breasted waistcoat is a classic. It comes with a single row of buttons at the center of the torso. Versatile and elegant, this style of suit vest is easy to style. It’s also easier to wear and seen as a more low-key, yet still sophisticated option. 

Double-Breasted Waistcoat

Unlike the single-breasted vest, a double-breasted waistcoat comes with two rows of buttons that line up on each side. Double-breasted vests are generally seen as more sharp and formal. It’s the perfect option if you’re looking to enhance your regular suit for an important occasion. 

Tuxedo Waistcoat

A tuxedo waistcoat is a suit vest with a low-cut neckline. It’s designed intentionally to show off the tie or the bib of a formal shirt. Traditionally, it’s called a tuxedo vest as it’s often worn as an evening style with a tuxedo suit. This style of waistcoat has become more popular lately. It’s now regarded as modern and stylish, especially by the fashion-conscious gentlemen.

Waistcoat with A Lapel

Any bespoke waistcoat or suit vest can come with a lapel. Though it’s rare, waistcoats with lapels are gaining more popularity in recent years. They’re considered to be smart, sophisticated, and fashion-forward. 

Sometimes, the lapel is even made using contrasting fabric, color, or pattern, just perfect for making a statement. This style of waistcoat looks charming at all times, even when you decide to wear it on its own or take off your suit jacket for the night. 

Understanding the Perfect Waistcoat Fit

When it comes to formalwear, there’s a very thin line between looking sophisticated and unseemly. How you look with your formalwear largely depends on how well the clothes were tailored to fit you.

This rule, of course, rings true for men’s waistcoats and suit vests as well. 

So, how should your waistcoat fit?

To begin, your waistcoat must not be too loose or too tight. There shouldn’t be any pulling or bunching of the fabric. Instead, your waistcoat should hug your torso snugly. If a waistcoat is too loose, the fabric would bunch up and make you appear bulky. If it’s too tight, it would restrict movement and feel uncomfortable

Pay attention to how your waistcoat sits on your body as well. It should sit as close as possible to your body without being too restrictive. You should be able to move freely without the waistcoat gaping away. 

As a rule of thumb, the vest straps should fit perfectly flat on your shoulders without lifting up when you move your arms.

As for the length, your vest should end where your trousers start. That way, the bottom of your shirt wouldn’t be exposed but the waistcoat wouldn’t be awkwardly long on your body. 

Follow these few rules, and your waistcoat will fit your frame perfectly. Let StudioSuits help you by providing you with the best-tailored, made-to-measure waistcoats!

FAQ

Is it necessary to wear a waistcoat when wearing a suit?

Unlike suit jackets, a waistcoat is not necessary for men’s formal wear. However, wearing a waistcoat can add depth and elegance to your formal attire. It’s a fantastic piece to smarten up your outfit instantly.

Furthermore, a waistcoat can make a man appear slimmer. A waistcoat will also make your attire appear more proper even when you decide to take off your suit jacket.

Should waistcoat match suit color?

Not necessarily. Traditionally, most men opt for matching three-piece suits, meaning the waistcoat or vest would be made using the same fabric as the suit. However, these days men are free to choose different-colored waistcoats to complete their attire.

That said, the color of your waistcoat should still flow cohesively with your suit jacket and trousers. For example, if you intend to wear a blue-colored suit then try wearing a navy waistcoat to add depth without making your outfit look awkward or unseemly. 

Should suit waistcoat be open or closed?

A men’s suit waistcoat is generally meant to be buttoned up or closed. This is because it’s supposed to highlight the man’s waist and enhance his silhouette. It also makes the attire appear sleek and smart

How to style a waistcoat?

To style a waistcoat, pair it with a crisp dress shirt, tailored trousers, and a matching suit jacket for a polished and sophisticated look. Add a polished dress shoes and a pocket square, to elevate your ensemble to the next level of sartorial refinement. Experimenting with different colors or patterns can add a touch of personality, but remember to keep the overall outfit cohesive and balanced.

Can a waistcoat be worn without a suit jacket?

Yes, a waistcoat can be worn without a suit jacket, especially in more relaxed or contemporary settings. This style choice allows the waistcoat to become a statement piece on its own, often paired with a dress shirt and trousers. However, it's important to ensure that the waistcoat is well-fitted and complements the overall aesthetic of the outfit to maintain a polished and put-together appearance.

Should waistcoat be loose or tight?

A men’s waistcoat should not be too loose or too tight. Instead, it should fit snugly across the wearer’s torso without any pulling or bunching on the fabric. This indicates that the suit vest or waistcoat is tailored perfectly to the wearer’s measurement. 

If a waistcoat is too loose, the fabric would bunch up and make the wearer’s silhouette appear bulky. If it’s too tight, it would restrict movement and feel uncomfortable. A well-fitted waistcoat should feel snug and still be comfortable to wear.
