"Hello my name is Gabriela Garzon at GG Image and etiquette consulting in Miami, Florida. In this clip I'm going to show you how to buy a woman's business suit. Basically you have to stay with the classics because you need to buy the best suit you can afford. Because it will last you for so many years to come. So you are going to start with darker suits and then as you start like needing them you start with neutrals and darker you know like different types of fun. But buying a suit you have to stay with the formal classic type of styles. Now the jacket, you have to know that the jacket should be close to your body but not tight to your body. Your shoulders should be perfectly aligned with your shoulders, the actual sleeves should be just like maybe above, I mean a little below your wrists and then they should have at least three buttons on top of it and try not to have like pockets because it's just going to give you more bulky kind of things. Space and look, the pants should just be skimming the body and basically you should try and buy straight leg type of pants. Try and stay with the fabrics such as triacetate at least seventy percent because that's the type of fabric that will not wrinkle as much and it last longer. And it's just best for like packing and everything else. And remember when you are trying your suit when you are going to buy it, just go ahead and try it with a blouse so that way you can see exactly how it is that it's going to look. Once again this is Gabby at GG Image and etiquette consulting."
