While our slim and modern jackets may seem similar in certain sizes, there are key differences in their fit that cater to different body types. Here’s a breakdown of each:

Slim Fit Jacket:
The slim fit jacket is more tapered, designed for those with broader shoulders and a narrower waist. It hugs the body closely and provides a tailored look, perfect for individuals who want a sharp, streamlined appearance. This fit is ideal for those who prefer a more fitted silhouette that emphasizes the body's natural shape.

Modern Fit Jacket:
The modern fit jacket is designed for a straighter build, offering more room from the shoulders through the torso and hips. While it still provides a slimming appearance, it offers a bit more comfort, particularly for those who carry weight in their midsection. It’s a great choice if you want a stylish look without compromising on ease of movement.

Example:
A Slim 42 Regular Jacket will fit almost identically to a Modern 40 Regular Jacket, with the slim fit offering a more tapered silhouette.

Pants Fit Comparison:
When it comes to pants, our modern fit is perfect for individuals with more muscular legs, as it provides extra room in the seat and thighs—great for staying comfortable while dancing or moving around. On the other hand, the slim pants are designed for those with a leaner lower half, offering a straight fit from the waist and hips and tapering through the thighs and down the leg for a sleeker look.

Example:
A Slim 37 Regular Pant will fit almost identically to a Modern 36 Regular Pant, with the modern fit offering more room in key areas for comfort.

All of our items are sold separately, allowing you to mix and match slim and modern styles to suit your body type best. This flexibility ensures that everyone in your wedding group can find the perfect fit. We also recommend allowing your group members to choose the style that fits them best, rather than prescribing one fit for everyone, so each individual looks and feels great.
