What is your preferred cut in tailoring? Continental European, English Drape, or American Sack Cut?
Let’s discuss ….
PROFF
I like the american gangster look is it called zoot suit which you are wearing at the end. But as you say it deoends on the person. If the person was very thin i dont think the wide suite would look good at all. I generally do not like too skinnt suites that show creases and bulges but a skinny man eould wear shuch a suite very well. My son has always like suiites and hes very tall and thin even a skinny suite looks just right on his bidy.
@@Padraigp Fair enough Padraig, wear whatever you’re happy with 😁
I like my suits CUT FULL with lots of DRAPE

@@AskOkeyInc I'm not a suit kind of guy but you gentlemen are starting to change my mind. I never knew there's these many types of suits to begin with...
@@thavi3n202 Well let’s keep going 😁
Stick around …
I dont wear suits, never really had an interest but the way this man talks about them I feel like getting one now!
Since he showed up in my feed I've been doing the same. He has helped me realize why I don't like modern fashion and what I can do to fix the ill fitting suits.
I believe every man should own at least one. Get a gray suit & you can wear it for interviews, to the office, to a funeral, to a party, etc it's the best all-rounder
A man in a well fitted suit can't be beat. I believe EVERY man need 1 suit for funerals, weddings, etc.
Do it! It will transform your appearance…an your MIND!
I can assure you that you’ll enjoy discovering the best fit, fabric and a new style just for your self. Enjoy!
I might need to drop a years salary on a suit collection because of this man 😭

Not only the suit look at the shoes, shirts, and ties. Has very elegant fabrics as well as color combinations.
Nothing compares to a well dressed man. He owns the room and captures attention.
Totally agree with understated elegance. So different for people who only want to show off
The best cut is the one that is not noticeable.
I wouldn’t say “not noticeable”. I would replace that with …
A good cut is one that “whispers” subtle elegance.

That's what the english believe, but the english aren't the only ones who make suits :)

This gentleman's clothing advice is succint...not one to mince or waste words....with that, and his voice intonation,
taking his advice, and watching his videos will be quite easy for me.
This is a life lesson that every young man needs to hear. Understated style that fits will get you through more doors than anything else.
Thank you! As a 6'2 250lb man, I needed to hear this to give up on that slim look.
Better late than never 😅
So true the unseen is always more flattering 🫶🏾
„I believe that what is unseen is more attractive than what is seen” best quote of the video !
Thank you Dominik
My coworker wore a suit every day. He was one of the few men who did. Too often he would have doubts about losing his hair and other issues. I finally told him how utterly fabulous and sexy he looked in those suits, and I was not alone in saying so. He finally seemed a bit more confident and smiled more often. He just didn’t realize how magnetic he appeared wearing those fabulous suits, subtle cologne and that beautiful smile. I miss my friend from work. He was a great friend and gentleman.
A well-dressed man never stands out in a crowd. It's his elegance that sets him apart- Oscar De La Renta. I salute you, my satorial friend
Give this man a show on tailoring suits and clothing for young men and teaching them the importance of classic clothing which can be worn for YEARSSSSSSS!!!
This man is saving lives for those into classy fashion ❤
Your so right Prof. Most people nowadays like the slim and the skinny fit and it’s terrible, you made the Ideal and masculine cut which every man must wear! Although your suit is bit expensive for some people, but I appreciate your style and design 🙏🏻🤍
Of course Joey. Very well said 💯
Thank you for your excellent entry and welcome to AskOkey Sir 😁

@@watanabe00738 You lost me there Watanabe 😁

I personally prefer the 1930s close fit because it shows off the angles of how well tailored the suit is that’s why I prefer the close fit on the upper and loose fit on the bottom because it really shows the drape of the trousers and the top part shows how well tailored the blazer is but the close fit style only works good for slim people as in the video you showed bigger guys in it and looked like they were stifled.
And that is the exact point Lawful.
Muscular or Large men are better off with LOTS OF DRAPE in their clothing
Thank for the detailed response

For some reason you magically appeared on my CZcams shorts and I have been hooked to your ever since I discovered your channel. Any tutorials for young men who want to start looking more elegant in suits.
The dark grey suit near the end is by far my favoured look in a suit.
I love your suits and how you explained the details of tailoring. Most importantly, the takeaway is that it's best to look draped than to look pressed into the suit.👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾❣️
Best takes on tailoring for sure
Spoken like a true gentleman. Style that is timeless.
We italians are smaller on average than British people so our suits are more slim
Very honestly said 🙌🏾
Thank you and a warm welcome to AskOkey GigaMogged 😁

Why would that matter if the suit is tailored to the specific dimensions of the customer?
@@hankschrader2353If you have a tall and lanky person, extra fabric, or wide, unstructured garments, may make them look as though they are swimming in extra fabric. Typically, these people need stiffer/structured garments than people who are visually wider or have larger bones. (For women, the normal "Italian" look would fall in the Dramatic types, but I believe many of the same principles apply to men)
People who are, at least, visually wider can work with more unstructured/looser garments. (Like, say, the flamboyant naturals.) These people might even look stifled(?)/too serious(?) (can't find a better word right now) in more structured garments.
So yes, you're right: It's about dimensions. Take a tall and lanky Italian man, make him 10 feet tall, and put him in an Italian suit, and he'd look great. Take this man, for example, and make him 10 feet tall, and he'd probably still look better in the English cut
@@hankschrader2353because a slim suit on a chubby guy might not look so good
It’s frustrating because I much prefer Neapolitan style to the British style (even though I’m British) but you rarely find a full cut, especially in the trousers
I agree . I work in construction so My daily wear is Carhartt pants T Shirt Safety vest and a light or heavy jacket sometimes a shirt too. When I do wear a suit I prefer the looser fit . I am not the Slim Man I used to be. My first Wife said I looked like a Young Burt Lancaster but years of backbreaking work and overeating slowed Me down. I always liked the style of the 30’s and 40’s
The best is the surprise you give them when the clothes come off ❤
“What is unseen is more attractive than what is seen”😮💨
TELL EM’ Sara my dear 😁
I totally agree! There should be something left to the imagination!!
Aaahhh. The level of one’s standards show up in the way one carries oneself. The thoughtfully arranged suit speaks volumes. From every prononciation & tone to gait & stance one’s character is made from afar & thereby welcomed or dismissed.
My man speaks the gospel!! Unfortunately there aren’t many of us left that subscribe to this perspective.
It’s growing Carl 🔥💯
"...believer in understated elegance..."
Exactly. 👌
I really love the old classic suits I see in old movies, as, for example, with Cary Grant and Jimmy Stewart in old Hitchcock movies.

He literally said "im built different" in a fancy way 😂
It's been decades since I've worn a suit. I also have an athletic body. I love the way your suits fit. I may have to reconsider.
You certainly should Rephael 😁
This is the politest way to say Italians don't cut suits for us "low hangers" ever seen 😂
My Sicilian ex fiance would vehemently disagree though, she liked that tight fit for some reason.
Of course you’re right! I agree with you one hundred percent (100%). I’m showing my support, when I like, share and save your content.
Your last words what is unseen is more attractive than what is seen I wish if younger generations can understand that deep respect to you SIR

This man is classic! What is unseen is more attractive than what is seen! He overstands when it comes to classic men's Tayloring!
Okay, those your last 2 suits are beautiful! Damn.

I love this man. He understands the rules. The real rules, and when, why, and how to bend them. Dude is a legit expert.
I like wearing suits that combine the best of both cuts, with the tailored look of an Italian cut suit paired with the more traditional fit of a British cut suit if that makes sense.
Love your content proff.
His voice is wearing golden suit..✨
The style he prefers is timeless.

I love both. i think different situations call for different vuts/fit. I definitely want an askokey suit one day. They look fantastic.
That was eloquently stated, i really like listening to this man!
The way i see it, each cut serves for a different part of the week; Italian for evening events, to boost one'sconfidence. British for comfortable leisure in sunlight. And French for balanced workdays. American for when everything is at the dry cleaners (just kidding)
Thank you for your scholarly content on proper gentlemanly. 🙏
Dude just flexed his athletics and tailored suits on me while educating me I'm so conflicted 🤣
Pick one Sergio 😅
I'm becoming really addicted to this man...I love sense for fittings and all❤
This man dressed the way you should dress. I hate tight clothes but if the clothes are too loose , that doesn't look good either, he dressed the right way.
