When buying a men's suit, focus on the fit through the shoulders and chest first, since that's hardest to alter. Choose a versatile colour like navy or charcoal, check the fabric suits the season, and confirm the trousers can be tailored. Connor offers slim and classic fits across 190+ stores.

For a job interview, a navy or charcoal suit is the safest, most professional choice and works across almost every industry. Pair it with a white or light-blue shirt and minimal accessories, and avoid black, which can read overly formal. Connor stocks interview-ready suits in versatile, year-round colours.

A well-fitting suit sits flat across the shoulders with the sleeve seams ending where your arms begin. The jacket should close without pulling and show about a centimetre of shirt cuff. Trousers should rest cleanly on your shoes with a slight break. Connor's slim and classic fits help you find your shape.

As a wedding guest, take your cue from the dress code and season. A navy or light-grey suit works for most daytime weddings, while charcoal suits evening events. For relaxed or beach weddings, try a lighter fabric without a tie. Connor offers full suits and separates ideal for guest dressing.

Buying a suit as separates lets you match different jacket and trouser sizes for a better fit, which suits athletic or non-standard builds. A full suit is simpler and usually better value if you're a standard size. Connor offers both full suits and mix-and-match separates in-store and online.
