Hello, this is Director Choi. Today, we will talk about common mistakes made by men who can't dress well, focusing on suits. While there may be various opinions on how to wear a suit, if you are interested and search for it, you will find a wide range of information. However, it's not easy to follow all the rules strictly. Today, I will point out the parts that you should not make a mistake on. Just by avoiding these mistakes, you will be halfway there. First of all, a very common mistake is socks. I talked about this in the casual wear segment, and it applies to suits as well. When you wear suit pants, you should wear dress socks. However, most people wear socks of an inappropriate length. The problem arises when you sit down because the pants rise up, but if the socks are too short.

When the hem goes up, you shouldn't see the flesh. If you're not sure when buying socks, it's better to buy socks that are so long that you think, Is this too long? You shouldn't see flesh between pants and shoes. Next, many people don't know this, but when you wear a jacket, you don't button all the buttons. Especially with a one-button, because there's only one button, you just need to button the top one. With a two-button, you only button the top one, you don't button the bottom one. There are buttons and buttonholes, they do serve a purpose, but you don't button them. Memorize this, okay? So, when you wear it properly, there are also three buttons, right? With three buttons, you just button the middle one. So, basically, when it comes to jackets, the buttons are supposed to be buttoned only in the middle. Therefore, with a two-button, you button only the top one, and with a three-button, you button only the middle one, of course.

Just a single button in the middle, then moving on to the shirt. When you wear a shirt, a common mistake is calling it a merryas. My husband did the same. In our time, we actually called it a merryas. What should I call it, a nunningu or a running shirt? Okay, it's a running shirt. We don't wear that. I told my husband that we don't wear that. Why are you wearing it like this? First of all, if you wear a running shirt like this, it looks too old-fashioned. But when you work at a company, if you don't wear it, first of all, here, it's like a manner to cover up. It's even considered rude to not wear anything and just wear a shirt. They say there's a common understanding that it's actually considered rude. In formal occasions, you don't wear a running shirt. Because the shirt you are wearing is like underwear when you wear a suit. You can't keep washing the vest or jacket, so this shirt is worn underneath.

I'm changing shirts now, washing, and doing this purpose. So, you don't wear a running shirt inside. If you don't like it when it shows through, it's better to attach a ripple patch. First of all, when you put on a shirt, the sleeve length should come out about 1.5cm longer than the jacket sleeve length, so you wear it like that. But if your arms are unusually long or short, or your chest is wide or narrow, or if your body deviates slightly from the average size, it's much better for you to have a custom shirt made. There are many places that do a good job with custom suits, but they can be quite expensive. However, there are many places that offer reasonably priced custom shirts. This is because depending on your body size, the shape and width of the collar, and other things may differ.

You need to adjust the balance little by little. So, for those who find it difficult to buy shirts, it's better to have custom-made shirts. Ties are a bit tricky too, especially these days, many people skip wearing ties. But normally, it's correct to button all the buttons on the shirt and wearing a tie is the proper way. Many of you make mistakes in this area. So, when dressing formally, the belt should be right at the top of the belt line or up to where the buckle of the belt is. If you choose a tie width between 7cm and 9cm, you can't go wrong. Especially when the skinny look was in fashion, ties were made very slim to match that trend. Also, in 2023, Celine FW will bring back that trend. Skinny ties are coming back in fashion trends.

When you wear a suit properly, you should choose accordingly. When wearing an outer, there is lapel. And when selecting an outer jacket, the width of the lapel should also be adjusted slightly to match your body image, whether it is a bit wider or narrower. You should coordinate the width of the lapel and tie knot together. And lastly, it's the pants. Many mistakes are made in the length of the pants. Especially, even if we wear the same suit, there is a feeling like a gentleman's suit. The main reason for this is that it's not a perfect fit but a bit loose fit. And in terms of pants, it's the length. Dads and gentlemen usually wear suit pants long to prevent wrinkles from forming in the front part. It's good to wear shoes and stand straight without wrinkles when viewed from the front. But also, adjust the length of the pants horizontally to fit the front precisely. The heel of the shoe at the back.

In some cases, there may be a tendency for the pants to show a little, depending on the width of the pants. So, in those cases, the length in the front is slightly shorter, and the back is slightly longer. When checking the length of the pants, you should definitely wear the shoes you usually wear and check the length of the pants. [MUSIC] Clothes are a reflection of my style.
