Men’s Church Suit

Traditionally, families attending church on Sundays will be seen dressing in their finest clothes. Most often, a gentleman’s finest item would be a suit. You can not feel like it is any other day than a work week day with your everyday business suit. But a church suit for your Sundays will make you feel like it’s a special day.

This would be basically a well designed suit, formal in appearance with the correct additional items such as shirt and tie. Although Sunday morning church has now become a much more social affair, shaking hands with the priest is still considered a formal part of the proceedings.

Another way to accessorize a man?s look would be by wearing a hat, if he so desires. This hat should coordinate with the color of the suit, perhaps a smaller hat that has a small brim. Nothing too flashy or cheesy would be suitable for church.

The shirt that a man wears with his church suit should be reserved in its color and nothing flashy. Most shirts that are worn with a suit and tie have collars that button so you want to make sure that these are buttoned. Then again in this day and time many churches have a much more relaxed atmosphere and find that allowing shirts without ties are acceptable as well. This certainly remains true of the younger parishioners.

If your church has a more laid back atmosphere than by all means you can attend without a tie and still look sharp in your church suit.

The same suit rules should apply to the shoes you choose to wear with you Sunday suit as any other suit day. Black polished shoes with a dark suit is a fashionable thing to do.

If white or cream colored suits are your choice, than white or tan shoes are advised. Though your aren’t in the office, church is still a social occasion, and it’s nice to look smart and feel comfortable.

Out of respect for other church members you should keep your jewelry to a minimum, make sure it matches and keep all necklaces under your shirt and tie. Large, flashy pieces of jewelry can be distracting in church.
