I'm not sure what your preference is concerning the fit of your clothing, but it doesn't look too bad. Next time, though, make sure the shouders fit a little better. It'll flatter your figure better.
Don't really go through this thread often.
For a 25th Anniversary Party.

The suit isn't terrible, but you could've had a better fit if you gotten it tailored.
The dress shirt, tie and pocket square combo isn't something you often see and IDK if I could ever wear that. But if you liked it, then that's all that matters.

It was last minute. The pocket square was something I got day of because no store in Canada had the one I wanted locally.
Actually this whole suit is last minute tbh. Didn't have it as tailored as I would like.
Also I'm a youngin... So my parents were the ones who kind of did most of the recommendations and were the ones who had it tailored by someone.

I know you guys would probably know more about what looks better for suits but this was last minute.
The whole combination actually. I didn't want that pocket square but it was the only one that was at the store, and we didn't have time to search around.
The party wasn't for me so it wasn't like that crucial for my outfit to be tailored specifically and as coordinated.
But yeah I guess I can see why many of you are questioning/criticizing.
I basically chose my dress shirt/suit itself/ tie/ dress shoes.
The alterations were done by someone my parents had so it wasn't really up to me.
I thought it looked okay considering it was last minute

Would've looked a lot better with a white dress shirt and non square toed shoes

It was an inside joke. He always gives feedback and it's usually harsh. I would assume he wasn't feeling the outfit.

Not a bad fit IMO. It is decent, and acceptable. Sure, there is room for improvement, but if you step out the house rockin that, you are better dressed than most people. Some the bros above posted some helpful suggestions. Always room for growth.

See what you're saying. I'm not a grown man lol... So my priority isn't to really dress like one and be all decked out.

Sometimes the best look is the simplest.
My rule of thumb concerning bright colored shirts is to wear them without a jacket. Bright colored shirts usually are worn casually and it's tough to find a nice outfit to go with them wearing a suit jacket. Or if you want to wear a bright colored shirt, then it's recommended to wear a lighter colored suit e.g.. a light grey suit with a darker colored tie and brown or walnut oxfords would've looked great with the pink shirt now that I think about it. Oh, and square toed shoes are usually always a no no.
You don't have to be "older" to dress well IMO. You can be any age and still be sartorially inclined. Most of us are under 30 years old anyway (don't know if you consider that old).
You're welcome to post more fits in the future

See here's the thing. When you see someone wearing Jays with a Reebok Sweater and Adidas shorts its ok to roast him? But when a guy with an ill-fitting suit, pink shirt, and outdated square toe shoes post a picture thinking he is "doing it" and its not ok to give him harsh criticism. Man yall a trip.His suit was sparkling man...Come on!

Some people who post here aren't looking for any criticism. It seems like

was just sharing his fit from the party he went to. I didn't see him ask for any criticism.
With that said, I appreciate the contribution to this thread as an example of what not to wear.

What are some good color tie/pants/shoes combinations with navy and gray dress shirts?

If it is a solid color navy dress shirt I would go with a khaki suit, Brown oxfords, Floral pattern tie that is a lighter color (Does not have navy in it). IMO solid navy dress shirts are easier to wear down. For example with blue jeans + loafers or slim khakis without a tie and a jean jacket if it is cold.

IDK man its been well documented in other threads that upon a first foray into the DB thread with a pic, that its met with negativity. It borders more on harshness than constructive criticism a lot of the time. I remember the first time I posted a pic in the old DB thread I got flamed and didnt post another one for like a year and change
The suggestions are always on point, but the wording isnt.
It should be noted that the posts, however negative they come off, are done with noble intentions and dudes on here mean well when they give feedback.

Very easy to pull off with jeans in a casual look, but I need it to be more of a business casual/professional look. The type of tie is the hardest part.

Hey guys, can you all give me some tips on what to wear to a summer wedding? The wedding is in August so I don't know if I'll go the blazer route but I'm open to the idea depending on the materials used. Lastly I'm thinking I will be getting the fit from banana republic as I've seen some good fits there lately.
