Although a tall and slender man may seem to have an ideal physique, some can appear to be too slender and ths giving the impression of being weedy. This can be overcome by creating a more solid silhouette. Rather then stripes, fabrics with patterns and checks are recommended.

The tall man`s jacket or trousers should not have too close a fitting but should rather hang slightly loose and easy. Jackets should be cut slightly wider in the shoulder and a little longer in length. The rule of the thumb is short jackets on short man, long jackets on tall man.

For the trousers, they should be cutted wider in the leg. A pleated front also helps to give the impression of fullness.
