Upen Patel in Men’s Health

In the style feature of the May issue, actor Upen Patel shows you how being well dressed can boost your image and give you an edge over others. He throws light on the most common yet confusing attire – suit. Do it right and you look like a million dollars and a little error (read wrong mixing of patterns, a fit too loose or tight and incorrect length of jackets and trousers) you look would sloppy.

Suits that the actor flaunts are pinstripes, plaids, two-button and tuxedo. The feature also has essentials tips and advices from ace fashion designers and celebrity stylists, who tell you what accessories to pair them with. Moreover, they also point out which suits is apt for your particular body type.

Upen also lets in readers into his personal wardrobe as he talks about the suit colours that he swears by, the footwear he chooses to wear with them and the pocket squares and bow ties that catch his fancy. Each of his choice is backed by a strong practical reason.

Upen says, «Never buy suits off the rack. A suit should fit well. Most off the shelf suits are standard fits which are not flattering.» And then he goes on to describe how suits can also be worn as separates and mixed and matched with other clothing pieces. Upen’s style feature gives readers a comprehensive know-how on suits.
