2 things about this video: 1- my turtleneck is too thick for this suit. I grabbed the wrong one to shoot the talking part of this video. That makes my jacket look too small for me. SUIT MISTAKE! 2- not being political with the thumbnail. President Trump’s ties are just always too long :)
So Alex There are a few things wrong with this suit : First off, the shoulders are not the right size, the sleeves should be a centimeter or two lower, the bottom of the jacket should also be fairly lower. I work with menswear ,tailoring specifically and overall this looks more like a Zara fit than a classic and timeless suit. Do consider going a size up on the jacket
This is a problem with wearing a suit unless if you go to suit supply before recording the video. If you work out, a week of exercise may change the way a suit fits you.
I bought my first ever new custom fitted suit from indochino. I don't know any fabric material or mix and match style cues, but they helped me with everything and it's awesome! 🔥 🔥 🔥 I'm still learning how to present myself better
i am not a big fan of his turtle neck. Turtle necks and suits look bad to me. thats probably the one thing i disagreed with but thats just my opinion of course.
Thank you for this! I am entering a competition where I need to make a futuristic formal wear and my model is a guy so I wanted to make a suit... the only problem is that I don't wear suits. So this helped me get a bit more of a grasp on what to stay away from while designing it!
@@Jacoz_Official Due to the pandemic, this event was canceled so sadly I only got to designing it. I do still have the design so I might modify it to be something more frilly and just have it to wear
I think the fit conforms to the latest styles. Everything looks a size too small. Jackets too tight and too short. Pants so tight you need stretchy material and too short like we're expecting a flood. Hard to find a comfortable relaxed fit. I hate the look and it's not a new look. This look was tried in the sixties and gave way to the funky seventies.
Hahaha I was just about to comment. He’s secretly in love with the style of a billion rings and bracelets on one hand and doesn’t want anyone else doing it. We caught u bruh stop exposing yourself
Yeah but you should also take notice that he is also wearing casual shoes with the suit and not wearing a tie so in my opinion its not so much of a formal attire with that in mind I think all those rings don't look that bad
Good advice. It was refreshing to hear someone address how accessories impact. I would not opt for a DW watch though. In the same price ballpark it should be possible to pick up a Hamilton, an Orient or a Timex.
One more suit mistake that he didn't mention: man-made material All suits should be made of NATURAL FABRIC (i.e. wool, linen, silk, cotton, etc.)! Nothing says cheap like polyester, rayon/viscose, etc.
1) A lot of investment bankers, ala Goldman Sachs, wear digital/Timex watch with their suits; 2) Wear suit that fit your body; 3) Although people go for tieless look, Hermes/Ferragamo tie help to define the look.
the suit at 3:05 needs to be retouched, at least 2cm, on your back (neck area) as well as on your right shoulder. I think the suit jacket should be a bit longer as it doesn't hide your :"+ correctly.
@@ryanhoman4234 Not sure, never bought anything from them. I use a different company for my suits. I know one where you can get a MTM suit for about $200 or an off the rack suit for less than $50(not including shipping)
An they were all desperate for husbands, you looked like a likely meal. The lionesses scooped you out. Sized you up. Thought for a moment Buddy... Back away slowly, don't christ don't run Good luck mate
Perfect advice. The "little black dress," is a requirement for women, but men wearing black should be headed for a funeral. Every man looks good in navy blue.
Black suits are not practical unless you’re going to a funeral. The three must have suits are Charcoal, Navy and Cambridge grey. Very versatile for business casual and after 5.
Alex Costa Hey Alex I need a new wallet (mine is a little worn out) I am looking for something slim and something that will last. Got any recommendations?
Oh come on, you guys are so picky. Alex puts himself out there to express an opinion which are valid and people start shooting him down. He has style, he has good points and you don't have to follow him to a T. Yes the suit does look a little small, but HE EXPLAINED THAT!
I am a classic dresser and I beg to differ on many points in this video. Point 1: A smart watch is perfectly fine. The important thing is the shirt needs to be made with a custom cuff to fit the watch underneath so it is only visible when it is used. Point 2: Leave stitching in pockets that you don’t use is fine. Point 3: Watch at 1:45 is way too big to be worn with the style of suit in the video. Point 4: Suit is TOO tailored. The Tom Ford look is popular now but it is very unforgiving. An extra sweater or a vest will throw the line of the suit off. Also, paints are too short. The paint legs should touch the top of the shoes so socks are not visible. Point 5: A thicker wallet is OK as long as the jacket has enough room to accommodate it. What is unsightly is the wallet creating a bulge such that the lapels do not lie flat against the chest. Point 6: Three button is fine - you only need to button the middle button. But a Tom Ford style jacket just isn’t long enough to accommodate three buttons. Point 7: Trump’s tie is not too big as long as his lapel width matches. Point 8: I’ve actually seen label left on jacket sleeve. I don’t care if it says silk or mohair it is not tasteful. Point 9: The Tom Ford highly fitted look might just be a passing fad. Especially that it has a tendency to expose shirt fabric above the belt buckle. Point 10: Pocket square tends to be pretentious unless for an evening formal affair.
I use the trendy suits, such as the one in my profile picture, to try to help get animals adopted. But I do love the look and feel of a great classic suit.
In the office i work, men are required to wear suit and tie. No t shirts, turtlenecks, or high watered slacks. My boss encourages 3 piece suits as well. I like the way men look in a suit. I have to agree with my boss on his 3 no nos. But I do think tailored suits are a must!
You saved me from wearing a smart watch with a suit😂😂 Good tip on the tightness if you sit down with it button the suit may rip because you’re applying too much force to it and it will be uncomfortable while if you sit with it unbuttoned it will be comfortable and save the it from ripping because while you sit the suit wraps around you if you unbutton it it won’t do that.
Charles Phillips - Who are you to judge. His style is perfect and has been the attire that I am used to. I think Alex and I are from different social circles then you. Either way, if you do a google search you will see that his style is current and has been for at least 20+ years. I assume we are not from the same social circle because you cannot see the class therefore you do not have it. Class is not just looks, but demeanor as well and you are not a nice person based on your comment.
Charles Phillips Charles Phillips - I am a VP of marketing and I dress like that in our meeting, but it is acceptable to as we are in the gaming industry. I see your point, however, it just depends on where your are whether it be an art gallery or a boardroom. Even a boardroom can vary. I would like to address something if you don’t mind. I worded the social circles point incorrectly. That was not meant to be rude or say that I am better than you. I could have said we are from different areas with different styles, etc. (you know what I mean?). As for class, that was a sh**ty thing to say and I am sorry. I don’t know you and who am I to assume. Take it as you will, call me an a**hole and move on, but most people either delete the comment or move on, but I was not that nice to you and I just wanted apologize.
I had the best tailor but now she works for Louis Vuitton. She made me look like anyone. Man has to have two great helpers: a good barber and a good tailor.
Another mistake: buying an expensive suit (Hugo Boss or Armani for example) when you only wear a suit 5 times a year or less. I bought my most recent suit from Zara, which isn't amazing quality, but good enough for how often I intend to use it
@@elvir182 $150 for a suit (which I got mine for) is pretty standard unless you want a suit that feels like it's made of cardboard or like it's a Halloween costume
Don't know if it's just me, but the jacket you're wearing and the suits featured in your video all seem to be a bit too FITTED ...errrr or TIGHT .... I don't think that's gonna be comfortable when you're wearing suits to work, every weekday . Otherwise , very very good tips , thanks Alex .
I think that is a problem because he is too built for his height. And he seems to be having chicken legs which is accentuated when you wear a fitted suit.
I bought several suits from Indochino. They are nowhere near well tailored suits. They provide a good base (especially if you`re looking for feature you won`t find on a rack) but their tailoring is sub par. I always have to take mine to my tailor (after Indochino`s tailor tried to fix their mess ups) to get the look I am going for.
I'm 24, and I've always loved wearing suits since I was in Highschool. The problem is that there are no good stores in which I can buy a good suit nor tailor shops in which they are specially prepared to make a good suit. I always struggle finding good separated pieces o create my own suit and it is terribly difficult. I wish I could get one of those amazing suits. Men are loosing that elegant and impressive style we used to have. Weraing these pieces of art is something that really makes me feel happy.
Buy quality movements nothing worse than a $500 fashion watch with a 10 dollar quartz movement no blingy watches or techno ones with a suit. Chronograph ok if its analogue and you're an engineer. Doesn't have to be a Lange and Sonne, Rolex, Piget,or Paneri but no fakes! Ball,Steinhart,Orient,Seiko,laco,Sinn,Hamilton or other mid horological pieces, swiss,German,or japanese. Preferably analogue and mechanical if you can afford it. Probably the best dress watch value is the Orient bambino. In house automatic mechanical movement with many styles and colors starting at around $100 or the seiko 5 line, literally 100s to choose from all analogue day date automatics with see through movement screw down case backs.
I agree with everything you said however, I disagree with your first tip about Apple watches. Apple watches can be styled with the right straps which can blend into a formal outfit such as a suit.What I see is that, some guys wear size 44mm watches on their small hands. I recommend getting the right size watch that's proportionate to your hand size. But nonetheless, cheers for the brilliant tips mate.
Yeah too many wear these huge clunky watches even if they are Rolex etc they don't fit up the sleeve and so look gawdy .... slim classic looks always prevail.... I love way cool watches and collect them even....I have a camel watch (camel cigarettes) A dual time zone watch with marble and ebony wood face (handy for keeping the markets open/close on hand) A really kool watch that was super cheap when you push a button 2 doors open on the front to read it., otherwise it looks like a bracelet.... nearly all my watches are slimline and I only wear the slim ones with any suit jacket
Your video was both informative and engaging. I appreciate how you tackled it such a unique way. I've explored a parallel theme on Illicium London. Keep it up!
You’re making one the biggest mistakes in wearing a suit, with the bottom of your shirt and belt being visible under your suit jacket which draws attention to your crotch which is disadvantageous when wearing a suit. Your trousers should sit higher at your natural waist line so the shirt is not visible underneath where the jacket splits at your belt. This will create a nice seamless look.
I like ur style and videos but this suit doesn't fit u mate The shoulders don't fit u at all When leaning on a wall if your shoulder hits the wall first before the edge of the shoulder then it doesn't fit u
I couldn't differentiate between a good quality suit before I wore one. Armani. It's so good that I feel it would make others at work feel uncomfortable me wearing.
It's all a matter of taste and style, when I had two suits cut by a French and an Italian tailor in France, they recommended to stay in the classic. The shoulder seams should match the shoulders angles or edge, the jacket should go all the way to the bottom of the buttocks, the back of the paints bottoms should be a little longer than the front so they seat nicely over the shoes, the jacket should be buttoned when standing or walking and opened when sitting. Finally the suit should be not too small to have maximum comfort and not look like you're wearing your little broter's suit. And always remember that trendy "à la mode" styles like those long pointy shoes, go out of style, a classic style never goes out!
You are yourself wearing a trending suit in this video. A modern suit, that is way too tight, wrinkles as you move your arms, and defines every muscle. A classic suit should fit like armor, meaning; it should be snug, but not tight, and it should drape well, without leaving creases.
right?!? I wear glasses so i can see and, you know, not walk into things. I can see if my suit is too tight and if i forgot to wear a real shirt with a suit!
Bruh 💀 You clearly are living under a mountain 💀. Glasses are accessories not just so you can see things because you have a poor eyesight 💀 Glasses aren't just made for people who has poor eyesight 💀 Common sense has entered the chat 💀

Alex Costa mistake 3 avoid wearing skinny lapels
The mistake I noticed- Your shoulders are slightly too wide for that suit jacket in the beginning of the video.
Thanks for clarifying that. Keep up the amazing videos. You should make one on fragrances specifically for winter.
Alex Costa true. But Suit mistake #2 is getting the suit from indochino.
Wait, you view glasses as an accessory? I view them as a necessity.🤣🤣🤣

4:58, when he finally realizes he doesn't fit into that suit from 9th grade anymore.
what you are wearing is to a suit is like what jeggings is to jeans
I have a blazer that is one bit wider than my shoulders should I eliminate it from my wardrobe?
your watch collection please
soon! Still working on it haha
Buy quality movements nothing worse than a $500 fashion watch with a 10 dollar quartz movement no blingy watches or techno ones with a suit. Chronograph ok if its analogue and you're an engineer.
Doesn't have to be a Lange and Sonne, Rolex, Piget,or Paneri but no fakes!
Ball,Steinhart,Orient,Seiko,laco,Sinn,Hamilton or other mid horological pieces, swiss,German,or japanese. Preferably analogue and mechanical if you can afford it.
Probably the best dress watch value is the Orient bambino. In house automatic mechanical movement with many styles and colors starting at around $100 or the seiko 5 line, literally 100s to choose from all analogue day date automatics with see through movement screw down case backs.
The very first thing I notice was the fit of your jacket.. then I looked at the comments, so yeah😂. You got that "do as I say, not as I do" 😂
3:18 wearing 3 rings right after saying 2 is max
lol i saw it
I agree with everything you said however, I disagree with your first tip about Apple watches. Apple watches can be styled with the right straps which can blend into a formal outfit such as a suit.What I see is that, some guys wear size 44mm watches on their small hands. I recommend getting the right size watch that's proportionate to your hand size. But nonetheless, cheers for the brilliant tips mate.
Yeah too many wear these huge clunky watches even if they are Rolex etc they don't fit up the sleeve and so look gawdy .... slim classic looks always prevail.... I love way cool watches and collect them even....I have a camel watch (camel cigarettes)
A dual time zone watch with marble and ebony wood face (handy for keeping the markets open/close on hand)
A really kool watch that was super cheap when you push a button 2 doors open on the front to read it., otherwise it looks like a bracelet.... nearly all my watches are slimline and I only wear the slim ones with any suit jacket
Changed the thumbnails eh...
Your video was both informative and engaging. I appreciate how you tackled it such a unique way. I've explored a parallel theme on Illicium London. Keep it up!
You are the best youtuber dope video as always notification squad ⚡️⚡️⚡️⚡️⚡️⚡️⚡️

A smart watch is perfectly fine with a suit... honestly in a professional setting it makes you look even more professional.
I think your jacket is a bit too small for you, ironically.
ভাল লাগলো , অসাধারণ একটি ভিডিও ধন্যবাদ।
You’re making one the biggest mistakes in wearing a suit, with the bottom of your shirt and belt being visible under your suit jacket which draws attention to your crotch which is disadvantageous when wearing a suit. Your trousers should sit higher at your natural waist line so the shirt is not visible underneath where the jacket splits at your belt. This will create a nice seamless look.
Three was a time I used one. Now I do not care. T-shirt and jeans makes me happy:). Never the less it looks good
I like ur style and videos but this suit doesn't fit u mate
The shoulders don't fit u at all
When leaning on a wall if your shoulder hits the wall first before the edge of the shoulder then it doesn't fit u
Abdallah Elnemr I think it’s probably like that because the turtleneck is a bit thicker than a shirt.
@@tommyfennell8670 very good point :D
Perhaps thats just the style he is going with.
@@tommyfennell8670 no it’s a bad fit
I couldn't differentiate between a good quality suit before I wore one. Armani.
It's so good that I feel it would make others at work feel uncomfortable me wearing.
Damn, you look so awesome when you ware your accessories Alex Costa.
Who are u
Wear* your welcome young man
@@MyNoob300 *wear. You’re welcome young man.
It's all a matter of taste and style, when I had two suits cut by a French and an Italian tailor in France, they recommended to stay in the classic. The shoulder seams should match the shoulders angles or edge, the jacket should go all the way to the bottom of the buttocks, the back of the paints bottoms should be a little longer than the front so they seat nicely over the shoes, the jacket should be buttoned when standing or walking and opened when sitting. Finally the suit should be not too small to have maximum comfort and not look like you're wearing your little broter's suit. And always remember that trendy "à la mode" styles like those long pointy shoes, go out of style, a classic style never goes out!
You are yourself wearing a trending suit in this video. A modern suit, that is way too tight, wrinkles as you move your arms, and defines every muscle. A classic suit should fit like armor, meaning; it should be snug, but not tight, and it should drape well, without leaving creases.
@Zac Lodro It depends. I buy all my suits second hand.
That turtle neck is amazing
With the glassess you look like TONY STALK, IRONMAN
Watching you in the suit you're wearing reminds me that advice from a youtuber should always be questioned.
Ma man your suit its tight on your shoulders
Yeah... I agree, pretty much.
1:53 looking like stark (ironman)
Yh a bit
Thanks for mentioning the no tie style. I don’t like wearing a tie 😅
3:15 suit is way to tight...
Nice description of this subject .. I wearing suits every single day .. thanks
Since when are glasses an accessory
right?!? I wear glasses so i can see and, you know, not walk into things. I can see if my suit is too tight and if i forgot to wear a real shirt with a suit!
Bruh 💀 You clearly are living under a mountain 💀.
Glasses are accessories not just so you can see things because you have a poor eyesight 💀
Glasses aren't just made for people who has poor eyesight 💀
Common sense has entered the chat 💀
Since douche bags started wearing them that don't require prescription lenses.
Alex looks like a a Kingsman especially with the glasses
The biggest mistake is to wear the suit ten times to small like you xD
You need that in order to show your muscles
Hahahahah
You can use leather strap in apple watch to make it dashing 😉
Can’t listen to a guy who looks like he’s grown out of his suit
Look at his pinned comment...
Timeless!!! I’ll start wearing a turtle neck with my suits then.😄
