Are you a coffee man, one always suited for the occasion? In your meetings you want to be heard and in conferences, stand out.
Your suit plays a vital role in carrying your image which is why you want to wear your favourite suit to the most important events.
A suit like this is not an everyday garment but something special you would want to preserve and take care of so it takes care of your image when you are in the limelight.
Here are some tips for you to keep your perfect suit to shine longer.
When storing…
More Protection For Your Suit
- Like any other special cloth, hang your suit properly on a hanger and covered with a breathable garment bag so it remains ceaseless and free from dust.
- Your suit is an extension of your personality and to make it shine always best, you need to give it some breathing space. After wearing it for a day, allow it some rest to avoid giving stress to the fine fibre of your precious suit. At times, you might need to wear it successively like for business meetings. Make sure that it is made to fit to handle that.
A woollen suit or jacket easily recovers from creases if given a bit warm and damp exposure. It will even sustain humidity but make sure that it doesn’t get drenched in washrooms as the effect would be instantly visible and would not easily disappear.
When wearing…
Less Strain on Your Suit
- Avoid putting too many items in your pockets to reduce strain on seams. A light wallet or a money clip might be enough. And you can also keep accessories to a minimum if you want to look sophisticated.
- Unbutton your jacket before sitting to avoid stress on your garment. You might also try unbuttoning the top button of your shirt (so you don’t look choked)
When cleaning…
Be Gentler on Your Suit
- Brush your suit occasionally to remove dirt and lint from the fabric but be gentle as it needs care. A natural hair bristle brush would do.
- It is not uncommon for your suit to suffer spills or stains when a buffet lunch and dinner is common in corporate arenas. Clean them as soon as possible with a blotting or tissue paper but make sure to not rub hard.
- Only the best professional drycleaners understand what your suit needs for cleaning so make sure you hand it over to the right people. However, do not overdo it as it would reduce the life of your suit. Get it dry cleaned before storing it for long before the right occasion shows up. An alternative to dry cleaning would be exposing it to sunlight to dry and kill any bacteria.
