My brother (and men's trend sounding board) recently asked me what exactly defined a skinny suit. A look the Beatles made famous decades ago had reemerged on the runways of New York, Paris and Milan. Donning a fitted jacket and skinny pant leg, models on the spring runway are showing us that even men's fashion comes full circle.
Other than being a HUGE trend appearing on the Spring 08 runways of Calvin Klein, DKNY (shown), and Ralph Lauren, the "skinny suit" or "European cut suit" is a surprisingly easy fit for many men. Though the doubtful may think that a skinny won't make them look their best, go ahead and try a slim cut pant leg versus a skinny pant leg. The look will be suprisingly slimming. If designer duds are not within your budget, look for skinny suits by Kenneth Cole or Material London, both available at Macy's.
Style tip: Wear the suit with either a skinny tie, or go sans tie.
