Since most suits are made of only two pieces, a three piece suit will give you that unique edge you will need in a formal situation.
While most guys are still wearing their two-piece suits, by adding an extra layer into yours, you will make a strong fashion statement.
If you haven’t heard too much about it or you’re afraid it’s too "business” for you, let me shed some light on the matter.
A 3-piece suit is no different than an ordinary suit except it has one extra item: the vest. If you wore vests in casual situations, you’re already familiar with it.
Since the only new element here is the vest, the other rules related to suits still apply to the 3-piece suit so you don’t have anything new to learn. Here the most important thing to know, never try to "colour match” your vest with your suit.
The suit jacket, the pants and the vest should be made from the same colour and same fabric, buy them and wear them together.
The benefits of wearing a waistcoat
The waistcoat isn’t there just to look good – it has some other advantages too. First off, it has a trimming effect! If you’re wearing a light-coloured (or a white) shirt, a darker waistcoat will distract the attention from your belly and up to your neck and face.
Second, it helps keep the tie in place. If you’re not wearing a tie clip, chances are your tie will bounce around as you make different movements. A waistcoat removes the need for a tie clip and makes sure the tie stays in its place.
Lastly, if you’re wondering if you can skip the vest, (like on a hot day) my answer is a definite YES. 3-piece suits can be transformed in 2-piece suits. So go ahead and give it a go.
