If you don't wear a belt, concealed carry either inside the waistband or outside the waistband is going to be a problem. Even the people I know who Mexican carry (IWB without a holster) have and need a sturdy belt to keep things in place.

Mexican carry more safely simplified for $20: Clipdraw.

I am retired and wear jeans 99 and 44/100% of the time. Forget the belt and buy a 2" pair of these for $20. Your back and sciatic nerve will love you for it.

With suspenders and the Clipdraw, the entire trigger and guard is inside the waistband and the butt/grip is outside of the suspender strap. Easy access and the safety is next to the body. If you wear a heavy shirt or light jacket over it, it does not print easily.

I think you're going to need a shoulder holster. You'll need to look for one that doesn't use a strap across the chest, and that has belt loops to hold the holster (or magazine carrier) in place when drawing. Replace the belt loops with suspender clips so you can attach directly to your pantaloons.

A shoulder holster for an all-steel 5" 1911 is, IMO a PITA, and I used a Bianchi shoulder rig for a Ruger SBH for decades while fishing/living in Alaska. Quality shoulder rigs are EXPENSIVE and, IMO, need to be balanced with a dual magazine pouch on the strong side to balance the rig, which adds more weight and discomfort. And you must reach across the body to draw.
Just my $.02.
Edit: I was curious about the Para Expert. Here is one review. Nice looking pistol!
