Wearing a suit with suspenders to a nightclub

My philosophy when you're talking about $7k+ watches is to save $ on the case (go steel) and get the nicest movement you can (like the $7k offerings from JLC, IWC, GO, GP, etc.).

My whole point is that lately, I've become quite a suit lover and wear them quite often, and the point of this thread was merely finding out what the whole deal is with suspenders/braces is, that's all...I'm not very experienced with extremely elegant attire, cos just as tricky mentioned, I would always go out in jeans and a tee, I'd even go in a tracksuit if I knew the owner well. And I've had enough of that ****, it becomes boring and lame.

So here I am thinking I'd get some quality responses from some experienced individuals...Although some of you did give some good advice, so yeah, thanks for that gentlemen....

God you must be great. I wish I was cool enough to hang out with you.

In essence, I just don't want to look like an idiot and have my dawgs ask me "Hey! Just come back from the office have you??" and other comments of such nature, mainly on account of me being 21 years old and a student... So yeah, is it alright to rock the suspenders with an open shirt sans the tie?? Or does one require a tie to look more complete and presentable?? Thanks friends, Jayman
The correct way to decide is to start a poll here on SF and then do whatever the poll says. If anyone at the club says that you look like an idiot for wearing suspenders then send them a link to the poll and go back to the VIP section and laugh at them.

One day... Still my favorite picture of any shoe. And I was hoping someone would not give away the answer

... and what I meant is that there is no real love for Hublot in Russia - at least from what I can tell

Yeah, successful troll and all that, but there's one thing bugging me here:

This is Styleforvm, isn't it? MC section, even, right?

What's with this «suits are uncomfortable» vibe? Am I in the right forum here?
