At the beginning of the year, we put out a call-out for readers to take part in a style consultation for an AskMen web series called Dress Your Best. Judging by the number of emails we got, many of you are looking for guidance in the style department. And that’s exactly what we’re here for. We have tons of articles on how to look better, but learning through example is different — especially when you get one-on-one time with an expert. Dress Your Best airs every week in March on AskMen, and will tackle subjects like how to dress for a job interview, what to wear on date night and more — stay tuned!

Dress Your Best – Episode No. 2 – Date Night

Not sure what to wear on date night? The challenge is to pick something that you feel comfortable in, but that will also impress women. In this episode, our reader Matt first joins Sachin, AskMen’s fashion editor, at John Varvatos to learn about the one item that will never fail you on date night: the leather jacket.

Next, Sachin takes Matt to Ben Sherman in SoHo to find head-to-toe looks — but there’s a catch. Sachin is joined by AskMen music contributor Sowmya Krishnamurthy. Each of them pick out a look for Matt and battle it out to see which comes out on top. Check it out!   

Dress Your Best – Episode No. 1 – Job Interview

In the first episode of Dress Your Best, Sachin meets up with Kyle. Kyle recently relocated to New York after graduating from an art and design school. He approached us to refine his look for job interviews. Kyle also struggles to find clothes that fit his short body type.  First, Sachin took him to Odin New York, one of the coolest men’s stores in Manhattan, to look at suit options and to see how to get the most out of one suit during the workweek. Next, they went to premier menswear designer Billy Reid‘s store to talk about suits and tailoring services. Find out what Kyle learned!
