Is there a difference between pants and trousers in Australia? I am visiting there and trying to shop and getting confused.

Australia is known to differentiate between pants and trousers. shorts are similar to trousers, but with legs that come down only to around the area of the knee, higher or lower than the knee depending on the style of the garment. (wikipedia)

It's my fox ( name brand) sweater . the fabric is acrylic . All I did was machine wash it then when I took it out I saw that it looked and felt different. So I wet it in cold wash try to get as much w

I have an acrylic blanket that feels different when wet, sort of tight. But when it dries out, it is soft and sort of spongy like before. Hopefully this will be the case for your sweater.

I need to get the jacket on my new suit altered. The sleeves need to be taken up a bit. How long should I leave them?

Ask the tailor to shorten them but to leave you at least a quarter of an inch of the shirt cuff showing. It looks so much better than having no sleeve showing.

Any clues what to do when you try on suits? Should I wear something specific?

It's a good question because if you want to buy a suit and make a good choice you need to be wearing a dress shirt and socks and dress shoes when you try it on. Make sure there are good mirrors (3 way mirrors are the best).

Check whether the pants sit well at the waist and if the leg length is right for you.

Ok so will someone please tell me what the different lapel types you can get when you buy a suit? I have to decide for my wedding and I am not sure if it really matters.

A notch lapel is the type you find on most business suits and it's a good and safe choice if you aren't looking for something alternative.

A peak label is more traditional and old school and it is making a big of a fashion comeback.

How many buttons should I go for on my suit jacket? I have no idea what is considered trendy these days.

The three buttoned single breasted suit is actually a very popular choice with young men these days. Two-button suits used to be seen as a very conservative choice but they've become a hit lately with designers who are streamlining the style for the runways. One button suits are not a popular choice but it's really a matter of personal taste.

It is really hard to tell if a suit jacket is too big or too small. What should I be looking for when I try one on?

Ok so here are 2 basic principles to follow when you try on a suit jacket;

1; It shouldn't be so tight when you do it up that it strains across the buttons

2; It shouldn't be too loose - not more than a fists worth between the buttons and your chest.

What should the shoulders on my suit be doing? I know it sounds silly but I think the shoulder pads in my suit are too big but the assistant told me that it is part of the fashionable design.

Obviously I haven't seen your specific suit so I can only answer with general guidelines but your shoulder pads shouldn't come out any wider than your shoulders.

If you stand sideways against a wall, the shoulder pad shouldn't touch the wall before your arm does.

Generally you should trust your gut instinct and if it doesn't feel right when you look in the mirror, you won't be comfortable in it.
