This is a great time to get a new suit at Belmeade Mens Wear

A classic great looking suit is essential if you are graduating high school or college.

Don’t fool yourself, life will become very exciting once you graduate.  But you must prepare.  Ready yourself for any type of career networking or special event.

The suits below are “Nested Suits”

But, what does “nested” in the product description mean?  This suit comes with a pre-selected size for the pant waist.  The pant waist is the coat size minus 6 inches.  For example, if the coat is size 40 the standard nested difference is minus 6 to get the pant waist size of 34 inches.

The pants can be let out or taken up 1.5 inches with a needle and thread. So, if you can’t get to your pant waist size based on your coat size, you probably want to look at suits that are available as “separates”.

Yes, Belmeade has both “nested”and “separates” available! Need additional help selecting the right look for your body shape? Come by the shop for a free fitting!

We are located behind Target in Johnson City, Tennessee, 149 East Mountcastle Drive.

New Styles in Men’s Suits

February 1, 2018

The date is circled on the calendar and plans are underway for the big event. Whether it’s a wedding, prom or formal gathering that commands your best look, these men’s suit trends will ensure that you rock the hottest styles of the year according to fashion experts from Vogue.

Go Dark on Dark

Classic black dominates the red carpet this season. Think sleek, classic black suits, black bow ties, black pocket squares, black vests, black polished shoes, and black socks. To show off your style, consider choosing the dark hue with a touch of texture in the vest or a side-stripe pant. This look pairs well with white or black shirts.

Layer Casuals Under Jackets

You’ll notice classic button-up dress shirts are being replaced with more laid-back options this year. T-Shirts, thick cable knit sweaters, sheer cashmere and patterned vests without shirts are popping up under suit jackets.

Try Uncommon Colors

As a contrast, the Spring 2018 menswear collections are also full of splashes of color. Opt for a blue suit, and accessorize with bright or pastel ties, pocket squares, and socks. If you love color, wear it with pride in 2018!

Choose a Slender Fit

Tailored formal wear shines over draping cuts. We love the ultra slim and slim fit suits. They don’t add bulk to your frame and make every man look polished. This year these slim cuts are popular in sterling grey and navy blue.

Slip into Creative Footwear

If you’re a shoe guy, this is the year to flaunt whatever makes you smile. The runways have seen suits paired with flashy cowboy boots (worn over slim-cut pants), soft moccasin style flats and color-contrasting sneakers. This is your chance to wear red kicks with a blue suit!

Dazzle in Uncommon Fabrics

Move over, polyester. Luxurious fabrics are hot for 2018. Expect to see velvet make a resurgence in addition to silk, wool, and satin. You can find these fabrics in whole suits, or as insets in lapels, side-striped pants, or vests.

Wear High-Waist Pants

Finally, the cut of men’s suit pants is rising. Expect to see some that fall several inches above the waistline, often paired with suspenders for a 1920s look. This yesteryear style is paired with an open jacket to show off the pant details.
