Welcome to Suiting the People, where we joyfully suit every gender and body!

Each week, suiting enthusiasts and Cool Queers(tm) Colin Curtis and Jules Blymoor will discuss something fascinating in the world of suiting, inviting you to dress up and feel like yourself for the big event, the grocery store trip, or the destruction of the capitalist system!

If you're interested in vintage suiting as a type of fashion, a hobby, or a mode of self-expression, you're in the right place.

New episodes release every Tuesday morning. We hope to see you there!

Be Kind and Be Stylish!

Colin & Jules
