Clothing Manufacturers understand that not everyone is the same height or size, which is why there is always a variety of sizes on the market to choose from. If you can’t find your size in the store, you know you’ve always for the option of purchasing the item online.

Straight point, button down or tab collars are the shirt collars that must have in short men clothing closet. Never wear bow tie, ties go to the belt buckle to avoid horizontal gap. Use four-in-hand knot and bold tie’s colors to show your face aura. For trousers, you can tell your tailor to make cuffs, let’s say 1-1.25″ instead of 1,5-2″. Wear trousers at natural waist, never below.

Any patterns that elongates is nice choice, like vertical pinstripes, chalkstripes, even herringbones. Limit stripes to very fine, subdued, and close-together versions. If you wear sport coat, try to make little contrast combination between sport coat and trousers. It has visual effect to cut you in half. Remember also that, darker color make you look taller than bright color. For the fabrics, picks light or medium weight.
