PROMOTION

[Closed] No Tax Suit Promo

October 28, 2014

Starting Wednesday October 29th – Saturday November 1st Gotstyle if offering NO TAX on all of our suiting, yes.. all of it… including Tiger of Sweden and Lab by Pal Zalieri. If you’re pulling off three-piece or two-button looks everyday, there should be a minimum of five suits hanging in that closet (wear a different one everyday, extend their lifespan and save on dry cleaning bills). Or if it’s your first time, we can find the right one for your body type and price range. Don’t worry, we’ll be gentle.

EVENTS

This past weekend we hosted our annual F/W14 customer appreciation party, dubbed #GStyleSportif. As the #hashtag suggests, the theme for the event was all about luxury sport, mixing and matching your favourite threads and infusing it with an athletic flair. Whether that meant throwing on kicks instead of your brogues or swapping your favourite blazer for a leather bomber we left the interpretation to our clients. Needless to say, regulars at GS events know that our dos bring out the most dapper men in the city and this event was no different.

After scouring album after album, we’ve picked our favourite and most compelling looks of the evening. Our IT list isn’t about the most daring or bizarre, it’s about those with the confidence and cool to be themselves, celebrate their true aesthetic and who possess a unique understanding of what works for their body and build.

Here’s our tribute to the Best Dressed Men at our #GStyleSportif event.

STYLE TIPS

Gotstyle’s Guide To Suits For Fall 2014

Sasha Ferkul October 28, 2014

Sell yourself, your brand, your product. First impressions can make or break big numbers so dump those boxy, ill-fitting suits and come in for contemporary looks that inspire confidence. We can fit any size, body type or proportion problem, we’ve got the in fabrics (windowpane checks for all), and warmer textiles for the upcoming freeze (summer suits are lame in winter). Melissa Austria discusses the finer points of modern suiting and what to wear to work now.
