The young men of the Boys & Girls Clubs of St. Lucie County, Garden Terrace Teen Center, got a firsthand lesson from the CEO of Cardita Formal Wear, Clifford Pearl, on what it takes to be a classic man. Mr. Pearl mentored the young men on the correct rules of menswear; from the proper way to tuck in your shirt, to how to tie a bow tie and a neck tie, also the correct length of a man’s dress pants and much more. He finished the session with meaningful advice “always know what you want in life, work hard, and stick with your goal.” Mr. Pearl also advised the young men to always be presentable, “your first impression is your last impression.”

Upon completion of this session the young men were measured and fitted for a tuxedo for the Club’s holiday photo shoot. The holiday photo shoot showcases teenagers from the Boys & Girls Club, male and female in formal attire. The photo shoot gives the members an opportunity to see themselves in a more luxurious fashion.
