So why does this matter? 1/3 of the male population is 5\'8\" or under but the clothing available on the market is usually tailored for men that are taller and so the proportions are off and it\'s not flattering to the silhouette of a shorter man. Brands tailored for short men: 1. Silas Jackson. 2. Peter Manning. 3. Jimmy Au\'s from Beverly Hills 4. Ash and Anvil One thing that we noticed at Fort Belvedere is that ties are usually made for guys of regular height, or big and tall guys. We decided to offer all of our ties in the short length so you can really choose and get something that flatters you and something that you like. Fort Belvedere also offers gloves for men with small hands. They are made of quality leathers. If you are sick and tired of socks that are too big and slide down, take a look at our selection which is available in small, made for men with small feet. Whenever you buy something, it is crucial that you look at the length. If something is too long, stay clear of it because you cannot really alter it so it flatters you. The only exception is that you can hem pants but if you hem it too much, the rise may be too much and maybe cut too wide. Find something that\'s as close to your body measurements as possible. One of the trickiest parts to alter is the shoulder. If the shoulders extend past your natural shoulder by more than a quarter inch, I\'d stay clear of them because alterations cost would be really high and usually the garment does not look very neat afterwards. In terms of sleeves, make sure that you have a high armhole so you have a great range of movement. You want to have trimmed sleeves but not too slim otherwise, your range of movement is limited. In terms of colors, there\'s basically no limit but when it comes to patterns, you want to stay clear of huge patterns because they make you look small and short and you want to avoid that. When it comes to accessories, it\'s probably best to keep it simple and clean. In terms of alterations, always be prepared to pay for them and make sure to have enough money left over so you can afford proper alterations. Alternatively, you can go with made to measure clothing because then, it\'s designed for you from the get go. However, there may be limitations because made to measure patterns are stock patterns that are modified and scaled altogether. Sometimes you may have the option to get a separate jacket size and a separate pant size, that may really help if your body is not proportional. Of course, holy grail is bespoke but it\'s quite expensive though if you can afford it and you\'re a shorter man, it\'s definitely the way to go. If it\'s particularly important to you, I suggest you know your own measurements, you know whether one shoulder is more sloped than the other, and the everything that can help you to achieve the perfect fit. If you go with a made to measure outfit, especially online made to measure, make sure to send them pictures of your posture, from all angles. That way, they can get a much better idea of what you look like and how they have to compensate for it when they make your garment. Short men\'s classic clothing do\'s and don\'ts. 1. Do focus on fit. 2. Don\'t wear bold patterns because they make you look smaller and they\'re not flattering. 3. Don\'t wear horizontal stripes because they make you look wider than you are 4. Don\'t wear large accessories 5. Don\'t wear really bold shoes or elevator shoes 6. When you wear something, do wear it with confidence. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Most Popular videos: How to accept a compliment - https://youtu.be/_EKXNmM1PUo 101 things that change when you dress up - https://youtu.be/JyGDd_iYaCI How to tie a Bow Tie - https://youtu.be/2I3cfa0BOOc --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Want to stay updated?
