It's easier than ever to find a husky boys' suit that is still flattering and stylish. A husky young man might feel self-conscious about his size, but in the right clothes, he'll have nothing to worry about and is sure to get a lot of compliments. It's preferable to buy such suits in person so they can be tried on, but so long as you pay attention to the measurements, a suit bought online should be just fine.

Choosing a Husky Boys' Suit
What you want from a husky boy's suit is one that adds length and slims through the torso and hips. Boys will find they look slimmer in most suits simply because of the cut of the jacket - a suit jacket goes a long way towards hiding flesh. If you choose a three-piece suit, you'll create an even stronger slimming effect, as the waistcoat lengthens while it covers.
Opt for a long tie, rather than a bow tie, even though bow ties are more common for small boys' formal wear. A long tie helps create a leaner, longer look. Pinstripes also give a lot of length, enhancing the slimming effect.
Boys grow quickly, so unless your son attends a lot of formal events, you probably don't want to make too large an investment in a suit. With some good tailoring, there is a lot that can be done to fit a suit to a figure and set it to its best advantage. However, you can find suits that will flatter your son well in the meantime.
Look and Feel Good
Boys of any size will not only look good in a well-fitting suit but feel good as well. Nothing can be more flattering on a boy than a suit. From classic styles to modern looks, suits can be found in a range of sizes to fit any boy's build.
