Dear Hugo, I love, love, love......( for the 4th time) love how you make accessible to many men, sartorial elegance decision making. Always sound advice; always accessible to many; and always done in a genuine and humble way. God bless you and Sonya. Regards Tony
Fantastic video. I think a blue suit really illustrates how overlooked a blue shirt can be too, you make a great point about the contrast of a white shirt that can sometimes be visually uncomfortable (in certain circumstances of course!) and definitely has me reconsidering always going for a white shirt in a more sophisticated ensemble.
Thank you for this video, Hugo! It gives me more creative ideas. My wedding is around the corner and the colour I chose for my suit is blue because of the versatility and I want to still use it on other important occasions.
Brilliant, Hugo! You’re showing how to unlock the thousands of combinations possible in one’s sartorial arsenal, to meet up the appropriate expression of individuality with the occasion.
Thanks for doing a video like this Hugo! I very much enjoy your longer videos where you give us a philosophy with broad guidelines and how we think about our suiting and sartorial style. Short videos like this give us concrete examples and showing us your advice in practice. Please make more videos like this and even though you may be expressing some same advice in different ways, it has a compounding affect on us that is very appreciated. A lot of us do not live in places where we can witness good sartorial taste on a regular basis so I always look forward to your content. Bravo!
Many thanks Kenneth for your very thoughtful comment. We will continue with these shorter videos (the next one will be dedicated to the grey suit) while keeping producing our longer ones (especially when we receive special guests). All my best wishes, Hugo
Hugo, I am a huge fan of your channel, your videos are so interesting and inspire my own ideas. I don't have my own non OTR suit yet, but I do have a nice navy blue jacket I did a lot of my own handwork on, you could call it handmade. I think focusing on these small details, even if not in a suit, does do great things for your style.
Bonjour Hugo and Sonya, from Kelowna BC Canada. A friend introduced me to Sartorial Talks in early 2020. I have always had more of a classic taste and mannerism than most of the people I know. Your series have been such a joy for me to watch and have given me hope that more people can watch and learn how to behave and present themselves in a pleasant way. All my best and please keep up the great subjects. Au revoir, mes amis
@@SARTORIALTALKS thanks! I mention light grey, because I usually only wear it with a white shirt and no tie. Some options would be appreciated. Cheers Hugo. You’re the best
Excellent advice. I appreciate your perspective friend. I'm still very new on this journey, but I thank you for your kind assistance. It is not at all instinctual to me, so I value your knowledge. Also, your "What is a Gentleman" video was spectacular. Keep the videos coming. I VERY much enjoy your content.
I picked up a nice navy blue suit for work recently. This gives me great inspiration. Just a few more ties and i’m ready. Thank you for this Hugo! Keep it up.
Excellent again. Showing that with thought and planning you can display elegance and style. Even if you have a financial limit to the amount you can invest in your appearance. An important message for younger people.
Greetings Hugo! Another excellent Sartorial Talks video. Showing the versatility of the mid-blue, notched lapel suit with different a small number of shirts and ties. All very chic, classic, and appropriate. Well done dear friend. Cheers! 🥂
Hay Hugo from Australia I have found your channel very insightful and I have changed my outlook and selection of items now moving forward , Keep up the good work .
Great advice for shirt and tie combinations. I have never thought of wearing the same color suit and tie with a white shirt but will give it a try. Merci pour votre partage
Brilliant video again Hugo .love your little touches to detail that makes this channel so good. Had my three piece suit on at a christening yesterday and got a black tie event on in August. Just love the thought of getting these on.Greetings from Glasgow Scotland. Are you still considering doing the Whisky segment soon Sir.
Great examples of versatility with few pieces. Hugo, something you show us over and over is that there are loose rules, but not laws. We should always feel free to try different combinations to achieve different moods and projections. And with confidence comes a will to separate from the herd. Forget the casual costumes of the masses. Break away and dress UPward! Stand apart and put together.
Hello Hugo, I really appreciate and love everything you are doing on your channel. One short question: Do all of your trousers have pleats? Enjoy your day!
I suggest a video on how to combine jackets, ties and pants of different colors, and perhaps fabrics, in a harmonious and practical way, with a method like the one in this presentation: from the most informal to the most serious. As usual I really enjoyed the presentation, and the beauty of Hugo's suits.
Amazing video sir…thanks for this knowledge on how to dress better. I have some important meetings coming up and I will use your advice with the combinations. Thanks once again.
Mr. Hugo, Excellent presentation; however I thought you will talk about color or type of dress shoes to match the suit. Thank you sir for your feed back.
Hugo, since several years have passed since your last suit collection video, perhaps you could treat us with and aditional video (or two :) of your incredible closet additions.
Another half-step from the flamboyant to the formal is a simple white linen pocket square with the "executive fold" rather than the puff and stuff which I think as being more nonchalant.
I agree with you, sir. I've been doing something simmilar with my royal blue suit. Plain white, sky blue and striped shirts are safe options considering the suit is already somewhat lighter shade.
Encantado con su canal, lo descubrí gracias al video que hizo con Teddy B. (soy fan de los relojes). Pero estoy viendo su canal y me ha parecido una maravilla escondida en TH-cam, estoy viendo varios de sus videos para ponerme al corriente, me agrada su estilo. Saludos.
Hello Hugo, Nice video as always ! Is it possible to for you to do the same video but with a grey suit ? (I have a watch with a black dial which doesn’t really match the blue suit 😅) Thank you Mathys
great video, short and useful. I was wondering what shoes you were wearing with the suit or what kind of shoes would be appropriate for the various occasions you mentioned.
@@SARTORIALTALKS Thanks Hugo, much appreciated! I happen to have a suit of the same color and after watching your video i'll have to hunt for a darker blue tie!
Hi I like the advice Some questions I have probably 100 ties most of them paisley design What is the best match coloco Thank you Luiz From Jacksonville Flórida.
omg .. thank u hugo. i would never in the past wear stripe on stripe . however with ur Expertise . i am going out to buy a lightly stripe shirt . like the tip on solid blue tie. could u follow this up with shoe selection for that Beautiful blue suit.
Thanks you for everything you've been teaching young people like me, Hugo. You cover almost every part of sartorial path. But since there are no video about bags yet, can you share something about bags, like how many types of bags and how can us tell which one are high quality.
excellent, thank you Hugo. Good to see this inspiration from French guy. Who else should do it? Simple and chic. Hugo. I will be visiting Strasbourg in two weeks. Where should i go to get this suit there? Galeries Lafayette?
Good morning Josef, honestly avoid Galeries Lafayette (where you'll basically only find big brands with overpriced crap). Where do you live? Cheers, Hugo
@@josefhab8095 Ok then, you should go and visit our friends at The Owners in Praha (on our behalf). You'll get all the blues you want there (show Michal the video so that he can select the right blue for you). On top of that you'll have a made-to-measure suit for less money than an off-the-rack at Galeries Lafayette. Hope it helps, Cheers, Hugo
Indeed Jay. This one is by Sartoria Pirozzi in Napoli with a typical Neapolitan shoulder. Great sartoria, great artisans and mostly great people (a family, 3 generations). Cheers, Hugo
Can I just say, sir, what an impeccable form your shirt collar is. If a shirt is the flesh of a gentleman's style then his shirt collar is the soul of (his style).
August 3rd for the interview...I plan to put on my light blue suit with white shirt and black tie and black shoes. Nice short video, thank you! By the way, tomorrow here in the Netherlands we have 40 degrees 😮
Beautiful ideas Hugo! Very elegant indeed. Have you ever done a video on different shirt fabrics (poplins, twills, broadcloth, etc) and how to pick them based on the occasion ot formality? Warm regards
great video as usual hugo, id like to see how can one combine reds such as pink/purple shirts with various outfits if possible :) and if we can see more underrated color palettes, id ask for things like browns or greens.
Hello there mister Jacomet. Once again a wonderfull video. Soon I will go traveling and this is the perfect reminder that I do not need to pack my whole wardrobe to look great! I have a question for you and ms Glyn. I will make my first visit to Prague, Brno and Bratislava on my trip. Do you have any sartorial tips, any must see places? And tips in general. Thank you.
Dear Bailey, in Prague you should definitely visit our friends at "The Owners" (great MTM salon with excellent value around €1000 for a suit) and in Bratislava you should visit the bespoke tailor Maximilian Mucska (great traditional handmade bespoke, around €3500). Of course you can drop our names, it won't hurt 😁 and you'll be very well received. Cheers, Hugo
Another amazing episode Hugo. The solid tie is something I just don't have. I suddenly realised that they are all patterned. I dont even have any striped either, this must be remedied
Great video. I wish you had mentioned the shoes you would choose for each combination as well. I think the shoes are just as important in completing the look.
Brilliant as usual! Loved the focus on the details. Thank you. Just curious, Hugo had the suit button on while sitting. Is this for the visual aesthetics?
very interesting. The only look I'm less keen on is the last one, just not sure about that particular colour tie - maybe a more formal knot like a nicky, a kelvin or even a half-windsor would soften it a bit (looks like you have used a four-in-hand). Please don't take this as a criticism, just an observation from my perspective!
Haha, thanks for your insight Hugo, I always thought medallions and bold patterns were more casual because in America most ties are solid or striped, if they wear ties at all. When I would have important business meetings I usually would go solid tie or striped tie with a white pocket square, I think medallion and bold geometric ties became associated with wall street and the mafia in the US, I also think they can intimidate people a little bit out here because most struggle with basic ties in America so when you show up in a 7 fold medallion tie with a perfectly coordinated pocket square and most haven't even cut out the front pocket of their jacket, they feel pressure. Women love the patterned ties but it can scare the guys a little bit, I always have to let people know I just love suits and would even wear them as a poor man and they relax.
People are usually uncomfortable with pretense - someone pretending to be someone they're not. I've found that so long as you genuinely enjoy and are comfortable dressing a certain way and, as Cary Grant put it, aren't wearing anything dirty or shocking, people will be fine with how you choose to dress. I often wear three-piece suits, pocket squares, dress hats, the whole nine yards, and I've found people to be rather receptive to my style. The internet hypes up the supposed judgementalism of everyday people.
@@themoderndandy713 I can definitely see that. I don't think I've had anyone give me vibes that I was insincere, I just come from a place where only politicians wear suits often (New Mexico, now I live in Phoenix AZ) Since I can remember I was infatuated with suits, I was made to wear dress shirts for church as a small boy and would refuse to take them off, I then worked in my step dad's antique store at 13 years old and a man was pawning clothes and commented "I think this suit would fit you" (I was a thin 5'10" I am 6'5" now) I wore it for picture day ironically and everyone said it looked better than what I usually wear, so I kept wearing it. I dropped out of high school and when I was working at fast food jobs I would put a blazer over my uniform when I would come and go, because of that I was recruited into sales and then eventually tech. I now work a cushy corporate job at 32 and 50% of the reason is my suits. I used to dress in funky or out of fashion suits as a beginner and nobody would really bat an eye, I think they thought it was a little weird and I didn't get any attention from women, I've leveled up my game too hard now, It's a little intimidating (I've had a VP at american express tell me he get's nervous standing next to me because my fashion is on point) I owe it all to the internet and guys like Hugo Jacomet.
@@caesarortega5249 That's a great story! Clothes really do get you places in life. I always managed to keep myself away from judgement by intentionally going eccentric. Braces, clocked socks, classic fedoras, a pocket watch, all that. I think people are less likely to assume I'm just dressing up because I have to with garments like that, but at the end of the day, the norm is still only to dress up when forced to, so I still get quite a few "what's the occasion?"s. As a child, I wore T-shirts with the neck cut out and pajama trousers. It's hard for me to imagine a middle-ground between comfort and style. It's either a tailored suit and tie or pajamas. The fashionable in-betweens, at least for me, don't do either job very well. My greatest style inspiration was The Gentleman's Gazette, which for me served as a great reference for that sort of old-school dandy look. Hugo Jacomet is a great guru, but I sadly can't afford a bespoke wardrobe, or even a singular bespoke suit. It was lovely to hear about your story, and I wish you well in the future!
Dear John, it's because I added a lapel pin and I prefer not to accumulate accessories. But you can, of course, add your PS to this last one. All my best, Hugo
hello hugo very nice video ,i have a dark navy suit if i want to dress the most formal way i have to wear a dark navy solid tie or a blue solid tie to play little with the colour,what about white pocket square? thank you
Dear George, a dark navy tie will be super formal, where a lighter one will work but will create a different flair (slightly less formal, more playful). As for the pocket square, you can of course go for a white one (cotton and/or linen). Cheers, Hugo
*HELLO SIR WILL YOU PLEASE COVER THE TOPIC ABOUT THE SHIRTS WHICH WE WEAR UNDER THE SUIT EVERYTHING ABOUT THE SHIRT LIKE THE COLER SIZE, SHIRT FIT CAF SIZE ETC* THANK-YOU REGARDS:- YASH LOVE FROM INDIA
Across all variants, are you suggesting the same shoe and belt color? Likely a medium brown? Move to a dark brown or cordovan or even (gasp) black with formal/special occasion?
Hey Jonathan, I would say move from "museum calf" to dark brown for this suit. In case of dark blue or even better midnight blue for special occasion then you can opt for black shoes. Cheers, Hugo
Merci beaucoup M. Jacomet. C'est un projet très utile pour débutant comme moi. (I tried to write this without any translator, I'm not completly off :D)
That pocket square deserves its own channel.It has had more features on this channel than anything else
Hahaha 🤣 you're right. I'm addicted to this rust pocket square! Cheers, Hugo
The entire time I was checking out the chandelier in the back. You and Sonia have exceptional taste in style and furniture

Interesting to see you with a soft shoulder suit. Normally you are wearing a Cifonelli shoulder. A different look. 👍
Indeed Jay. This one is by Sartoria Pirozzi in Napoli with a typical Neapolitan shoulder. Great sartoria, great artisans and mostly great people (a family, 3 generations). Cheers, Hugo
Fantastic looks Hugo. My favourite is no4. Solid blue tie is amazing. What make ? Thanku
It's a old 7 fold tie (I bought it 12 years ago) in heavy silk "Princesse" by Marc Guyot in Paris. Cheers, Hugo
Can I just say, sir, what an impeccable form your shirt collar is. If a shirt is the flesh of a gentleman's style then his shirt collar is the soul of (his style).
Thank you ZT, the ready-to-wear brand Fray from Bourgogne seems to work very well for me. Cheers to you! Hugo
@@SARTORIALTALKS My pleasure, sir.
August 3rd for the interview...I plan to put on my light blue suit with white shirt and black tie and black shoes. Nice short video, thank you! By the way, tomorrow here in the Netherlands we have 40 degrees 😮
Good evening Davide, it was 42° in France today 🥵 . Cheers, Hugo
@@SARTORIALTALKS I only get warm when I look in the mirror haha. 42 in France is (Okay) Here in the Netherlands 40 is too much....
Beautiful ideas Hugo! Very elegant indeed. Have you ever done a video on different shirt fabrics (poplins, twills, broadcloth, etc) and how to pick them based on the occasion ot formality?
Warm regards
I don't think we did, but it's a great idea. Cheers, Hugo
Thank you for making a show that is less rhan 15 minutes!
😂😂 you see Terri, anything can happen in life! Normally it takes me 15 minutes to say hello 😂 (remember I'm not American). Cheers my friend, Hugo
great video as usual hugo, id like to see how can one combine reds such as pink/purple shirts with various outfits if possible :) and if we can see more underrated color palettes, id ask for things like browns or greens.
Yes Daniel, we will try to do the same kind of video with many different colours. All the best! Hugo
Hello there mister Jacomet. Once again a wonderfull video. Soon I will go traveling and this is the perfect reminder that I do not need to pack my whole wardrobe to look great! I have a question for you and ms Glyn. I will make my first visit to Prague, Brno and Bratislava on my trip. Do you have any sartorial tips, any must see places? And tips in general. Thank you.
Dear Bailey, in Prague you should definitely visit our friends at "The Owners" (great MTM salon with excellent value around €1000 for a suit) and in Bratislava you should visit the bespoke tailor Maximilian Mucska (great traditional handmade bespoke, around €3500). Of course you can drop our names, it won't hurt 😁 and you'll be very well received. Cheers, Hugo
Ingénieux Hugo!!
Merci M'sieur! Amicalement, Hugo
Another amazing episode Hugo. The solid tie is something I just don't have. I suddenly realised that they are all patterned. I dont even have any striped either, this must be remedied
Yes Alexander. You should remedy this asap 😅 ! All my best, Hugo
@@SARTORIALTALKS well worth the expense my Friend. Thankyou
Great video. I wish you had mentioned the shoes you would choose for each combination as well. I think the shoes are just as important in completing the look.
Correct Steven, I'll do better in the future. Best, Hugo
Brilliant as usual! Loved the focus on the details. Thank you.
Just curious, Hugo had the suit button on while sitting. Is this for the visual aesthetics?
very interesting. The only look I'm less keen on is the last one, just not sure about that particular colour tie - maybe a more formal knot like a nicky, a kelvin or even a half-windsor would soften it a bit (looks like you have used a four-in-hand). Please don't take this as a criticism, just an observation from my perspective!
No worries! Cheers, Hugo
well done. thank you
With pleasure. Cheers, Hugo
Thank you so much I am am a woman an elegant woman but this is very interesting to me and now I know certain things to look for in a man’s dress
Pleasure. Cheers, Hugo
Haha, thanks for your insight Hugo, I always thought medallions and bold patterns were more casual because in America most ties are solid or striped, if they wear ties at all. When I would have important business meetings I usually would go solid tie or striped tie with a white pocket square, I think medallion and bold geometric ties became associated with wall street and the mafia in the US, I also think they can intimidate people a little bit out here because most struggle with basic ties in America so when you show up in a 7 fold medallion tie with a perfectly coordinated pocket square and most haven't even cut out the front pocket of their jacket, they feel pressure. Women love the patterned ties but it can scare the guys a little bit, I always have to let people know I just love suits and would even wear them as a poor man and they relax.
Thank you Caesar for your great comment. Well, it seems all is about perceptions... All my best, Hugo
People are usually uncomfortable with pretense - someone pretending to be someone they're not. I've found that so long as you genuinely enjoy and are comfortable dressing a certain way and, as Cary Grant put it, aren't wearing anything dirty or shocking, people will be fine with how you choose to dress. I often wear three-piece suits, pocket squares, dress hats, the whole nine yards, and I've found people to be rather receptive to my style. The internet hypes up the supposed judgementalism of everyday people.
@@themoderndandy713 I can definitely see that. I don't think I've had anyone give me vibes that I was insincere, I just come from a place where only politicians wear suits often (New Mexico, now I live in Phoenix AZ) Since I can remember I was infatuated with suits, I was made to wear dress shirts for church as a small boy and would refuse to take them off, I then worked in my step dad's antique store at 13 years old and a man was pawning clothes and commented "I think this suit would fit you" (I was a thin 5'10" I am 6'5" now) I wore it for picture day ironically and everyone said it looked better than what I usually wear, so I kept wearing it. I dropped out of high school and when I was working at fast food jobs I would put a blazer over my uniform when I would come and go, because of that I was recruited into sales and then eventually tech. I now work a cushy corporate job at 32 and 50% of the reason is my suits. I used to dress in funky or out of fashion suits as a beginner and nobody would really bat an eye, I think they thought it was a little weird and I didn't get any attention from women, I've leveled up my game too hard now, It's a little intimidating (I've had a VP at american express tell me he get's nervous standing next to me because my fashion is on point) I owe it all to the internet and guys like Hugo Jacomet.
@@caesarortega5249 That's a great story! Clothes really do get you places in life. I always managed to keep myself away from judgement by intentionally going eccentric. Braces, clocked socks, classic fedoras, a pocket watch, all that. I think people are less likely to assume I'm just dressing up because I have to with garments like that, but at the end of the day, the norm is still only to dress up when forced to, so I still get quite a few "what's the occasion?"s. As a child, I wore T-shirts with the neck cut out and pajama trousers. It's hard for me to imagine a middle-ground between comfort and style. It's either a tailored suit and tie or pajamas. The fashionable in-betweens, at least for me, don't do either job very well. My greatest style inspiration was The Gentleman's Gazette, which for me served as a great reference for that sort of old-school dandy look. Hugo Jacomet is a great guru, but I sadly can't afford a bespoke wardrobe, or even a singular bespoke suit. It was lovely to hear about your story, and I wish you well in the future!
@@themoderndandy713 Absolutely true. Many thanks for your precious contribution. All my best, Hugo
Why no pocket square for the last outfit?
Dear John, it's because I added a lapel pin and I prefer not to accumulate accessories. But you can, of course, add your PS to this last one. All my best, Hugo
hello hugo very nice video ,i have a dark navy suit if i want to dress the most formal way i have to wear a dark navy solid tie or a blue solid tie to play little with the colour,what about white pocket square? thank you
Dear George, a dark navy tie will be super formal, where a lighter one will work but will create a different flair (slightly less formal, more playful). As for the pocket square, you can of course go for a white one (cotton and/or linen). Cheers, Hugo
*HELLO SIR WILL YOU PLEASE COVER THE TOPIC ABOUT THE SHIRTS WHICH WE WEAR UNDER THE SUIT EVERYTHING ABOUT THE SHIRT LIKE THE COLER SIZE, SHIRT FIT CAF SIZE ETC* THANK-YOU

Across all variants, are you suggesting the same shoe and belt color? Likely a medium brown? Move to a dark brown or cordovan or even (gasp) black with formal/special occasion?
Hey Jonathan, I would say move from "museum calf" to dark brown for this suit. In case of dark blue or even better midnight blue for special occasion then you can opt for black shoes. Cheers, Hugo
is that your home, Hugo? I really like the Bookshelf in the background :)
Ooo how about shoe pairings?
Dear Angelo, with this suit I would go dark brown. Cheers, Hugo
very good, merci.
You're very welcome Jeb, Amicalement, Hugo
Blue is great. Navy looks really formal these days imo so a lighter blue looks great.
I love your video and your style . Would you mind share with us the link to buy those ties ? Please
We will try to do an episode covering more comprehensive tie brands with links. Thanks. Hugo
Great content! Kept it simple
Thanks my friend! Cheers, Hugo
Merci beaucoup M. Jacomet. C'est un projet très utile pour débutant comme moi. (I tried to write this without any translator, I'm not completly off :D)
Dear Alexander, your French is excellent. You just missed one word (pour UN débutant comme moi). Amicalement, Hugo
What about bow ties in regard to the three dressy suits, ascots? A good idea or not?
Of course my friend! Hugo
