Although the color of the suit is very important, its perfect fit to a man's silhouette plays a key role. The right model should highlight the advantages of your figure while providing full freedom of movement so you feel comfortable in any situation. Many men are hesitant to shop online due to the inability to try on the suit beforehand. However, online shopping is safe, offers access to a much wider selection of models, and accurate measurements are all you need to choose the right size. Here are the most important tips to help you make your decision.
Before choosing a men's suit (https://kubenz.pl/garnitury.html), start by determining your height. Remove your shoes, stand straight against a wall, and measure the distance from the floor to the top of your head. Then measure your chest circumference (at armpit level, at its widest point) and waist circumference – at the level where your belt usually sits.
Wondering if the suit will fit well? The jacket sleeves should end about 2 cm above the wrist, so that the shirt cuff slightly protrudes (1–2 cm). When standing relaxed with arms down, everything should fall naturally. For trousers, pay attention to their length and width – these determine the proportions of your silhouette.

Narrow trousers (16–19 cm) look best when they slightly reveal the shoe’s upper. Medium-width trousers (20–23 cm) should rest lightly on the shoes, with the back reaching halfway up the shoe’s upper. Wide trousers cover the entire vamp, allowing for a comfortable stride. Remember: too short trousers disrupt proportions, and too long ones crease and look untidy.
How to Choose a Suit for Your Body Type? Key Rules
Tall and Slim Body
Men with a slender and tall figure look best in slim fit cuts, which emphasize the body shape without restricting movement. Opt for low-rise trousers, optionally with cuffs, which visually add width to the legs. A belt in a slightly contrasting color can visually shorten the silhouette.
A jacket with light padding on the shoulders or with shawl lapels will give the figure proper proportions. Tall and slim men can also opt for light-colored suits and subtle patterns, such as delicate checks or stripes.

Short Body
Men with a shorter stature should choose suits made from smooth fabrics – preferably in classic, simple cuts. Low or mid-rise trousers will visually elongate the legs. A great slimming trick is a suit with vertical stripes, which adds a few centimeters of height. A fitted jacket and pressed-in pleats in the trousers also improve proportions.
Stocky Body
For a more muscular build, the key is the right colors and styles. Dark shades – black, navy, or graphite – visually slim down and add elegance. The best cut is regular fit, which conceals imperfections without adding unnecessary volume. A simple, classic jacket and trousers slightly tapered downward will help achieve proper proportions. Avoid overly fitted jackets and very loose styles, which broaden the silhouette.

Online Shopping – How to Choose the Right Suit Color?
When choosing a suit, it’s worth matching the color to the occasion. Light gray is a great option for work or family gatherings. The graphite model is suitable for corporate events, business meetings, and formal celebrations. Meanwhile, navy blue is a versatile classic – appropriate for almost any occasion, whether formal or more casual.The black suit is an icon of timeless elegance, especially flattering on men with dark hair, brown eyes, and olive skin tone. It’s best to choose it for evening events, as it may look too dressy in daylight. During the day, a navy or graphite suit is a safer choice.
Before purchasing, be sure to check out the offer from the Kubenz brand – in the collection, you will find both classic solid suits and models with checks or subtle micro-patterns. The wide selection will help you find the perfect outfit tailored to your body shape and the occasion.
