The width of braces is a key factor in wearing braces. They can be for functional purposes (generally a larger width), or for style (generally a narrower width).
The width also depends on the purpose of the outfit. For example, for business suits, the straps are generally 1 or 1.25 inches, as shown below:
Braces for suits are generally wider |
However, for modern wear in 2010, the width is narrower – generally 0.5 inches. Both are acceptable and depend on the overall look you are trying to achieve.
Fashionable braces are generally narrower |
It should be noted that some brace widths are not suited for certain outfits. For example, the braces below are too wide for this overall outfit. Narrower suspenders should have been used. (Not to mention that the shorts should use button on braces instead of clip-on suspenders.
The width on these braces is too wide |
The width is proportional to the shorts |
Some people may feel that smaller width braces bind when wearing them, while wider ones feel unnatural and uncomfortable. So make sure you try out different widths and see what feels best for you.
