Slim Fit [VS] Skinny Fit ? (in suits) what is the difference ?

Karen_taris

From the store Next, for a skinny guy...

what is the main difference in the 2 suit sizes:

slim fit (jacket and trousers) and
skinny fit (jacket and trousers).

(lets say the sizes are the same, Suits= 36s both, and trousers = 30R)

what is the main difference in the 2 suit sizes:

or are they pretty much similar? or for a skinny person, skinny fit will make them look mega skinny?

i would very much assume skinny fit to mean to be very figure hugging - (...and look like a wetsuit on a non skinny person).

slim fit should just be a bit tight.

i unwittingly tried on a pair of "skinny jeans" once, it was very funny, i am not overweight, or much overweight (?) (20% body fat ish).

i looked like a chicken anyway.

The difference is usually in the bottom of the leg, skinny is tight to the leg all the way down and slim carry on from the calf without hugging the ankle but still being narrow, also general all over tight body fitting for skinny with regard to the jacket.
