How to Find a Wedding Suit That Fits Perfectly: 6 Tips for Older and Larger Men

Finding the perfect wedding suit can be challenging, especially for older or larger men. 

A well-fitted suit not only enhances your confidence but also ensures comfort throughout the big day. 

Explore our wedding suit collection for options that combine style with the perfect fit.

1. Prioritize Tailoring for the Perfect Fit

A properly tailored suit makes all the difference. Off-the-rack options may not fit perfectly, but adjustments from a skilled tailor can transform your look. 

Ensuring that the jacket fits across the shoulders and the trousers sit comfortably at the waist is essential.

Carpe Diem Men’s in-house tailoring services provide expert alterations to achieve the ideal fit. 

Tailoring allows you to feel confident while maintaining maximum comfort throughout the day.

2. Choose the Right Fabric for Comfort and Style

The fabric you choose significantly impacts both comfort and style. 

Heavier materials like wool or tweed are great for colder months, while lighter fabrics like linen or cotton work best for summer weddings.

Discover breathable options in our linen suits for men that combine style with comfort.

For formal occasions, Super 100s wool suits are ideal for ensuring both style and durability.

3. Opt for a Jacket That Flatters Your Frame

Older or larger men should choose jackets with structured shoulders and single-breasted designs. 

These styles create clean, vertical lines that elongate your frame and provide a flattering silhouette.

Explore our range of tailored jackets designed to complement various body shapes. 

Pairing your jacket with the right shirt and accessories further enhances your overall look.

4. Select Trousers That Offer Flexibility

Ill-fitting trousers can ruin an otherwise polished outfit. 

Ensure your trousers have a comfortable rise and enough room in the thighs and hips for ease of movement.

Carpe Diem offers customized trousers to match your preferences and ensure an impeccable fit. 

Opting for a pleated style can add extra comfort and sophistication.

5. Pay Attention to Color and Pattern

Solid, dark-colored suits like navy or charcoal are universally flattering and slimming. 

Avoid overly bold patterns, but subtle pinstripes or windowpane checks can add personality without overwhelming your look.

For inspiration, visit our men’s collections, featuring a variety of suits in timeless shades and designs. 

Choose colors that align with the wedding theme while reflecting your personal style.

6. Invest in Accessories That Elevate Your Style

Conclusion

A wedding suit should combine style, comfort, and fit seamlessly. 

By prioritizing tailoring, selecting the right fabric, and focusing on details like color and accessories, older and larger men can find suits that flatter their physique while ensuring all-day comfort.
