Our High-Waisted Trousers That Will Flatter Every Guy. Here Are 5 of the Best Design and How to Wear Them
Once upon a time, high-waisted trousers were the norm in menswear. Then, about two decades ago, certain false prophets arrived to tell us how they belonged in sepia photos of grandpa (or 1930s’ Chicago bootleggers) and that we were better off with slim—or worse, skinny—low-rise silhouettes if we wanted to get with the program. But that’s about to change.
Comfort being a key factor in how men shop and dress today, “especially in light of non-traditional office settings, there’s an appetite for a languid, fluid silhouette.

How to select a collar based on Face Shape?
In the beginning, the collars of the shirts were used to protect the throat, although now it is a traditional ornament of these garments and depending on their shape it can be used on different occasions.
Before buying a shirt, men rarely stop to think whether its design, its color or its type of collar, this being just as important, is the most suitable for our physiognomy.

Although it seems that all the shirts are the same and with a pointed neck, the options are different if you pay attention and depending on the type of place where it will be used and the shape of each person's face and neck, you can make a selection of shirts that favor.
We must bear in mind that by choosing the correct type of collar for our shirt we will be able to hide from a bulging walnut or an elongated face to another visibly wide one.
