One of the biggest myths in fashion today is that if you invest in men's suits and tweed jackets and take care of them, they'll last forever. While they do tend to last a lot longer than clothing made with low-quality fabric that isn't cared for, nothing --no matter how well it is made-- is immune from tears, snags, and holes. When this happens to your suits or men's tweed jackets, however, knowing what to do can save you time and money.

We’ve put together a comprehensive guide including the best tips and techniques to fix most of the usual drawbacks that could affect your suit’s quality and durability.

If there’s one piece of menswear that doesn’t get talked about enough, it’s the waistcoat. While it may not be the piece you reach for on a daily basis, it probably should be. Once mastered, the waistcoat can create an entirely new dimension to your appearance. It transcends dress codes and lets you experiment with layers in a simple, but effective way. If you don’t have a waistcoat in your wardrobe, you’re missing out on perhaps the best looks.

Is it that when it comes to softness, durability and sophistication nothing can outstrip woollen fabrics? Some fine gentleman would swear an oath to wool and its infinite fineness on the name of the highest of fashion traditions.

Polyester, on the other hand, can cause the most agitated debates among men from all corners of the world. Does it look cheap? How many wears can polyester resist? Is the Man-in-a-polyester-suit doomed to the dark realms of style crimes?

When you spend almost every day in your life in the courtroom, you no doubt take your responsibilities very seriously. Whether the majority of your time is in the magistrates' court, the Crown Court, the High Court, the Court of Appeal, or the Supreme Court, you know that everything you do, say, and even how you appear can have a significant impact on the judge and the jury.

It was about time to round up and honour some of the most celebrated fashion icons from the UK. From timeless artists to new generation Hollywood stars, follow the steps of these fine gentlemen that for sure know how to perfect any attire.
