Snug Hip Fit Doesn't Belong With Men's Clothes, Tailor Tells Women Who Eye Papa’s Suit Uneasily
By RUTH MILLETT : EASTER is not so far off that Papa hasn't beeing doing some indow-shopping for that new ring suit. And if Mama notices that gleam in his eye, she ought to think about. taking steps. Actually, in most cases, storekeepers tell us that when Papa buys a suit Mama either goes along or gives him explicit instructions on what type to buy. That would be fine and dandy if Mamma knew what she was talking about, according to Norman Block, prominent New York stylist. : Mr. Block is by way of being an authority on men’s clothes. His tailors run up the clothes of many
But she usually doesn’t— }
of Manhattan’s best-dressed busi- §B
nessmen, stage and literary lights and men-about-town. Mr. Block thinks it is time women learned something about men’s clothes, since they have so much influence on masculine dress. # » »
“TO BEGIN _ with,” he says, “women should s expecting men’s clothes to fit the way their own do. “In order for the collar to stay put when a man moves his arms, there must be some drape in the back of the coat. The vertical wrinkles are there .for a pi —they are not a misfit,” Mr. Bloc wants women to know. bt
followed by the regular meeting in the afternoon. :
As for trousers, they shouldnt
Mamma is just being influenced by feminine fashions when she kicks about the plaid suit Papa takes a shine to. :
fit tight around the hips the way a woman wants a dress to fit. Unless they are a bit baggy, and sink in like riding breeches, they they be comfortable. ! . Mamma avoids plaids because they
make her look larger. But that is Pp
no reason for Papa, who wants to look hefty, to -avoid them. ; ” ” ” : MAMMA shouldn’t let her feminine love for a nipped-in waist persuade her that Papa should have a nipped-in-silnouette. He shouldn’t. His coat should have a straight look. . Another thing Mama should not do is encourage Pop to match up his accessories, as she -does. It gives an impression of straining for a sarforial effect. Additional clothes-commandments for men are, according to Mr. Block: ’ “The width of
the trousers
should be about three-fourths the
length of the man’s feet.’ The
‘trousers should be long enough to
‘break’ on the instep. The socks shouldn’t show. 2 “An inch of shirt cuff should show beneath the coat sleeve. _ “Light gray _felt hats,” moire neckties, and shoes with sharply pointed toes should not be worn —ever. ; ' “Best all-around hats for men are dark brown snap brims and dark blue or black homburgs.” Last, but not least, Mamma should have Papa walk, sit and stretch in a new suit—not just admire himself stiffly in a full-length mirror—before he buys it. > A man cannot possibly look well
in a suit—unless he is comfortable wearing it, . ’
