Just recently, ten days of intense travelling during which I had to
pack and unpack my suitcase almost every day brought the constant
difficulty of folding my suits and my shirts. Long after giving up on
the very cumbersome and constricting suit carriers, as none of them had
ever convinced me, I have joined the ranks of those who fold their suits
in their suitcases.
Of course, there are as many techniques on the matter as there are
manners (most completely ineffective) ways of stopping hiccups.
Nevertheless, the following clip demonstrates a very simple and
efficient way of folding shirts and suits that can be used by all
(especially those, like yours truly, who seem to have two left hands).
For having tried the method, I can tell you that it works better than
the others.
Of course, no suit
will ever come out unscathed after spending several hours confined to a
suitcase carried from the cargo to the baggage carousel by careless
hands… Still, the method has, so far, yielded the best speed and
ease/results ratio, which is a deciding factor for those who, like me,
often have only a very short time to pack before hopping in the shuttle
or a cab.
I feel that the best thing about the method is how the trousers are
fitted into the vest at the shoulder. I tried it and found it works to
perfection
As far as the small plastic bags are concerned, they are a must,
because they create, of particular importance for the suits, the
creation of a small air cushion around your darling bespoke jacket.
