How A Dress Shirt Should Fit for Professional Men In Atlanta, GA | GROOMSMEN

As a professional or executive in Atlanta, everything about your look matters. Your hair needs to project style.

Your hands need to project class.

Your shoes need to shine like your personality.

If you have these pieces in place, you’re ready to impress. Now you need your clothing to match. Buying clothing off the rack often means settling for an ill fitting suit or having your suits adjusted by a tailor.

When it comes to your dress shirt, there are a few things to look for that can greatly enhance your professional look. Read on to find out how a dress shirt should fit for men in Atlanta.

Choosing the Right Dress Shirt

There are several things to look for when you are trying on a dress shirt.

The collar should not be too tight or too loose. The place where the sleeve meets the shoulder should actually align with your shoulder, not droop off the side of your upper arm.

The length of the sleeve is another important factor for ensuring the right fit for your dress shirt. The sleeve should rest comfortably at your wrist. If the sleeve bunches up at your wrist, then the shirt is the wrong fit. Alternatively, if the sleeve has too much room in it then the shirt is too big.

The sleeve cut should not be too tight or so loose that it leaves a lot of space between your wrist and the cuff. Also, if your wrist is showing, the shirt is too small. If the sleeves easily go down past your wrist or cover part of your hand, then the shirt is the wrong size.

The shirt’s torso should be snug, but not so tight that buttons are about to pop. At the same time, you don’t want excess shirt to hang over the side of your waist.

The bottom of the dress shirt reach right below your waistline. If it only reaches to your navel, the shirt is too small. If the shirt covers the entire front of your slacks, then it is too long.
