How can an adult male not own at least one suit? What do you normally wear to weddings and funeral?

also, a suit should not fit like a pair of jeans. gentlemanly clothing should hang, not grip.


It also shouldn't look like you have two trahbags around your legs like you old fricks wear.

Looks like more of a french blue shirt. I would not wear a french blue shirt with navy pants. With that shirt/jacket combo, go with the black pants and black shoes/belt. It will be a more formal look. For summer time, I would drop the blue shirt, wear a white one with the navy pants and brown shoes.

He should do that now, that shirt is not going to look good, no matter the season

Yikes

Black is pretty much out in all cases other than paired with black.

Also, OP should have gone with a suit combo, or with a more fashionable sport coat that doesn’t look like it was intended to be part of a suit.

ETA: I just looked at that shirt. If you wear that shirt, it doesn’t matter what else you put on.

Great training program over there.

Surely someone at the Stein Mart where OP bought his shirt/tie combo-in-a-box, and boxy Haggar coat, can give him advice on the right baggy pants and Rockports for this outfit.
