Three-piece suits are the epitome of style and elegance in a man’s wardrobe. The holy trio of a jacket, pants and waistcoat is the ultimate tailored outfit when suiting up is the mandate. Despite being a synonym to power dressing, men often opt to wear a suit sans the waistcoat since getting the fit right can be tricky. There are times when styling a three-piece suit can leave one flustered. We, therefore, take up the task to re-instil the love for a timeless three-piece suit in every man who wants to give it a go. Thankfully, actors in the West have time and again opted for a three-piece suit at red carpet appearances. Taking them as perfect examples, we have for you ten ways to wear a three-piece suit without looking like a layered lunatic.  

 Josh Duhamel

A classic black three-piece suit with Chelsea boots? We approve. 

Post Malone

Post Malone opts for a polka dot shirt to give his three-piece suit a quirky update.

Idris Elba

Going monochrome with a crisp white shirt and a black tie is the safest, most dapper way to go about dressing up.

Ryan Reynolds

A well-tailored navy three-piece suit will always do you justice. Always. 

Bradley Cooper

Bradley Cooper is every guy who wants to be well turned-out but defies the norms of wearing a tie to look formal. Good thing it all turns out to be for the best!

Joe Jonas

Joe Jonas’s cool guy vibe is rubbing off on us. Who else would dare to team up a three-piece suit with a t-shirt underneath? 

Rami Malek

It really doesn’t get better than Rami Malek in a three-piece tuxedo. That’s all. 

Matthew McConaughey

A beret and a pair of sunglasses are all you really need to team up with a checkered windowpane suit.

Honoree Karamo Brown

Karamo opts for contrast dressing with a different hued shirt underneath his three-piece suit. He also takes the extra effort of adding a pocket square. 

Chris Hemsworth

Chris Hemsworth really doesn’t have to try. Just opt for a suit similar to his, and you are sure to be the talk of the evening.
