Some good press for our boys at DressMonkey.com

Style expert Jeff Horowitz is interviewed by Entrepreneur magazine in their latest issue.

Jeff Horowitz, co-founder of DressMonkey, cites the following three trends to look for this spring:

  • European cuts: Unlike the boxy shape of American blazers, the European cut has a sharper shoulder, narrower arm and nipped waist, making it an ideal fit for formal blazers.
  • Narrow lapels: For a slimmer, more modern fit, look for a suit with a narrow lapel. These lengthen the torso and add height; they also pair well with slimmer ties, which are back this season.
  • Side vents: Vents add functionality and ease of movement to the traditionally rigid structure of a blazer. While American blazers generally rely on a center vent, the European style of side vents covers more while bending or sitting, thus keeping a more crisp appearance.
