Making HIStory: Fashion Sense For Him

February 28, 2017

While the groom should match the style of the bride, today’s gent is all about  also expressing himself stylishly and fashionable.

Here are some fine and fancy fashions that are suited to the well dressed man.

1. While suits ARE suitable for more “casual” events, contemporary couples who want all the formalities   of a traditional and trendy wedding are opting for the quintessential classic tux tailed to the groom to be.
Tuxes are not only classic AND couture but are sexy and sophisticated…especially today’s slim-fit styles that come in  a vast array of colors to compliment the bride. And, while almost all grooms choose to rent, experts asserts that purchasing a tux is probably a good investment.

2. Bow ties are making a comeback for the revival of retro chic celebrations. However, classic neckties in  today’s hot styles are modern, youthful and chic.

3.  If The shoe fits….oxfords are today’s MUST HAVE accessory for the groom who truly wants to “take  his style in stride”. While in the same family as brogues, the simplicity of oxfords makes them simply sophisticated and sleek.

4. Simple is the new black when it comes to stylish gents. Experts suggest the fashionable gents should stay simple and streamlined and match the bride and her bridal party for the best photos and portraits.

5. Investing in the future is strongly advised. Professionals point out that your special day is a once in a lifetime event that both bride and groom SHOULD enjoy to the fullest….and for many that may mean delegating authority and responsibility preferably to a professional wedding planner who knows how to make the magic happen while you simply enjoy and relax.
