Is this Suit OK for an Interview?

I don't have time for your pedantic nonsense (you seem to post and repost every 1/2 min). Suffice to say I ensure that my suits/shirts are formfitting.

Suffice to say I called your bluff and you don't really have custom suits.

LOL, whatever dude. I don't need to prove anything to the likes of you. I wonder if you even have any nice suits in your closet. Gimme a break, srsly.

MTM, fully canvassed, Horn buttons, functional cuffs with handmade buttonholes (4 buttons, three buttoned), super 120's LP fabric, structured shoulder with 8in drop, etc, etc.

Your turn!

Haute Couture!


BTW, for the posts that asked:

6' 2"
175lbs
Trim but Athletic Cut.
White
26yrs old
Clean Shave
Balding so I buzz it all the way down 1mm.

The suit is being fully tailored so fit will be perfect.

Perhaps they should just whip 'em out and compare.

I need to get a tailored suit. Being a 5'9" 240lb bodybuilder/powerlifter does not bode well for buying suits.

looks good, would get the job deffo.

If you're really 5'9 and 240lbs with an athletic build, you're completely fucked for off the rack suits. What is the difference between your chest and waist measurements (called the "drop" of the suit)? It's gotta be like 9 or 10 or something ridiculous. Most suits in the US are only like a drop 3-5. "Slim" suits at places like Brooks Brothers will be a drop 6, with a rare drop 7.

For a cheaper option try MTM from Suit Supply if you're in a city where they have them. Decent quality and at least it will fit.

Dude, is that meant to impress me? I can't even see the lines of your suit. I dunno about those buttons and that color scheme esp the lining, what can go with that? Maybe that's why you keep suggesting brown knit ties lol. Who's your tailor?

Here's one from my Hong Kong tailor, single-breasted red pinstripes, real buttonholes, and some french cuff shirts w/ Alfred Dunhill cufflink.

My thoughts EXACTLY!! This thread went from watches to jackets to flame suits! Lets get back to talking about cars(& stuff) and lets try to treat others like we would like to be treated ourselves.
