WHAT IS DROP?


What is the drop?
DROP AND FIT
The drop is the difference between the half-measurement of the chest and the half-measurement of the waist of a suit. It is a measurement that is used to customize the cut of the suit, improving the fit for both the jacket and the trousers. Knowing your drop is important to choose a suit that fits perfectly and enhances your figure.
The size is obtained by dividing the chest circumference by 2.
Drop is calculated by subtracting your waist size from your chest size.
ANGELICO'S DROPS
The drop helps you choose a dress that fits your body structure and ensures balance between chest, waist and height.
Angelico in his collection offers four different drops for the clothes to make it easier for customers:
- Drop 7 - Slim : Drop 7 corresponds to a slim fit, that is, dry and tight. It is the ideal option for men with a slim and well-proportioned physique, who want a suit with a modern and tapered cut. This fit follows the natural lines of the body, enhancing the silhouette and giving an elegant but dynamic look. Drop 7 is perfect for those looking for a youthful, formal but not rigid style, ideal for important occasions or for those who love more contemporary tailored clothing.
- Drop 6 – Custom: Drop 6 represents the custom fit, a cross between a slim and a regular fit. Designed to fit a wide range of body types, this drop provides a good fit across the chest and waist without being too tight or too loose. It is the most versatile choice and is suitable for most men, thanks to its ability to combine comfort and tailored style. Ideal for those with a well-proportioned but not too slim physique, as well as for those who prefer a softer but still structured fit.
- Drop 6L – Long Custom: The drop 6L , also known as the long custom , is designed for taller men or those with a longer body type. It maintains the proportions and characteristics of the drop 6, but with increased lengths on the jacket and trousers, to perfectly adapt to longer torsos and legs. This fit is ideal for those who have difficulty finding clothes that fit well at height without being too baggy. The drop 6L offers a harmonious balance between form and function, ensuring an elegant line even for those with non-standard physiques.
- Drop 4 – Comfort: Drop 4 is dedicated to men with a more robust build , who require greater width in the chest, abdomen and hips. The comfort fit guarantees space and freedom of movement, without sacrificing the typical elegance of a tailored suit. It is the perfect choice for those who want to feel comfortable throughout the day, with a garment that fits well, does not tighten and naturally follows the lines of the body.
