How to tuck in a shirt correctly

People began tucking shirts into trousers during the Middle Ages, when this item of clothing served as protection from cold, wind and insects. Modern fashionistas and fashionistas do not stop experimenting, thanks to which the list of ways to tuck shirts into trousers is regularly updated.

How to determine by the type of shirt whether it can be tucked into trousers

Several details indicate whether an item of clothing is suitable for tucking into trousers: the material of the item, the style and the event that the person plans to attend. A shirt that can be tucked into pants should be made of thin material. Rough fabrics form unsightly folds and create discomfort (they pinch and rub the skin) when the lumbar region is compressed by trousers.

Designers divide shirts into those that are tucked in and those that are not tucked into trousers according to their style. For example, those that have a flat bottom must be tucked in; those that have a rounded bottom or rounded cutouts on the sides can be worn untucked.It is equally important to take into account the event for which the outfit is being selected: if you are planning to attend an official celebration, then it is better to tuck the top of the suit into the trousers. For everyday suits, such a requirement is inappropriate - you can wear an untucked shirt to work (if there is no dress code), a walk or a trip to the store.

How to tuck in a shirt to look beautiful. Basic methods

It is fashionable to be beautiful, so modern men and women carefully monitor their appearance and try to create their own image based on the latest trends. There are two main ways to tuck in the top of an outfit - traditional and army, which have not lost their relevance for decades.

Traditional way. Step-by-step instruction

Shirt tucked into pants

To tuck in the top of the outfit, you need to choose a long product, the edges of which will not protrude from the belt. The essence of the traditional method:

  1. Put on your shirt and fasten all the buttons.
  2. Put on trousers or jeans, straightening the shirt in front so that the fabric lies in even folds.
  3. Fasten the zipper and button on the trousers, put on a belt (if wearing).

This method is only appropriate when the product fits well on the waistline. Some men slightly modify the traditional method and tuck the top of the outfit first into their underpants and then into their pants.

Military (army) method. Step-by-step instruction

The military method is no less popular than the traditional one. How to do it:

  1. Put on the top of the outfit and fasten it with all the buttons.
  2. Put on trousers or jeans, carefully straightening out the folds.
  3. Without fastening the zipper or buttons on the trousers, make even, symmetrical folds on the sides.
  4. Button up your pants.

Casual style - relaxed

Casual styleCasual style – this is lightness and ease, which is typical for everyday outfits. Tucking in the top of a casual suit means hiding one side of the garment behind the trousers and leaving the other side untucked. This method is suitable for brave individuals who follow fashion. You can wear such an outfit for a walk, a date, but not for a special event.

Fashionable method (tuck only the front part): for whom and for what occasion is it suitable?

Modern designers come up with everything they can to surprise their fans, and the way to tuck in the front of a shirt and leave the other untucked is no exception. This method is a variation of casual, but it is more strict, suitable for everyone and for almost every event. Men and women can tuck the front part of the product and leave the back free. To look stylish, you should use a belt with a bright and unusual buckle.
