Suits

[Brigandier]

I've lived in a rural are for a few years; so what suits are fashionable now? I remember four buttons like they were yesterday...

What are the pros wearing nowadays?

Three buttons. And never button the bottom one.

Are pinstripes still okay?

Are pinstripes still okay?

Absolutely, but only if you can pull it off. Otherwise stick with your classic dark shades.

Depends on what you're wearing them for.

Top hats in colors are all the rage.

If you want to impress a gal these days, an orange top hat with matching suit will do wonders for your image. :thumbsup:

Even celebs wear them!...

3 buttons aren't really in style atm. If you just need one suit by a plain charcoal grey 2 button one and call it day. And of course you can't go wrong w/ the baby suit.

ya, unless you're a basketball player in the NBA, you're probably not tall enough to fashionably wear a 3 button suit. 2 button is more in fashion - charcoal or navy are the staple colors. Rest is really up to you, but my personal preference is soft shoulders (less padding) and double vented.

Where are you guys buying your sport coats from? Men's Warehouse wants to bend me over a stool and pound the money out of me it seems like.

Nordstrom anniversary sale starts any day now.

Started last weekend, at least here.

Of course, the shirt and tie that my gf wanted me to get for a wedding this weekend weren't on sale...

Ya, for card holders. I think it becomes open this Friday.

Nice pick. Glad you didn't decide to go with pick stitching.

I like soft shoulders because they're more adaptable to different types of shoulders. Shoulder padding can often ruin a jacket for me.
