[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Men's Wearhouse is fast and has all price ranges. They measure you on the spot and tailor it, ready for pick-up in about a week.

DH even had them measure and custom make a dress shirt. It was cheaper than the shirts off the rack.

They usually have several salesmen roaming the floor to help you pick out a suit, even match ties to shirts. Some females too, but they all know their stuff.

Blue suits really seem to be popular right now with light cordovan shoes.

I was in a courthouse recently and there were 6 lawyers - every one of them had a blue suit on. I watched ESPN with 5 analyzers - again all 5 were wearing some shade of a blue suit. Not a grey, black or tan suit to be seen.

NP and I’m curious (as my son will be shopping soon), were the suits dark navy blue, or more medium blues? To me dark navy is the classic first suit color, but I wasn’t sure if you meant guys are trending to lighter shades of blue. [/quote]

PP.  Dark navy blue is out of fashion for younger men right now.  My son has a grey suit and a black suit.  Every true navy suit he tried on made him look like he was pretending to be a middle-aged dad.  I don't like the trendy blues so we didn't go there.  In his size, they were too fashion forward.  I also didn't want to buy the brown shoes that go with that color blue, etc.  I wasn't able to find a nice navy blazer either.  We'll wait until he needs more than 2 suits to try again.[/quote]

I doubt a navy or charcoal suit will ever be out of style. [/quote]

The point is that due to trends, slim cut dark navy suits are in shorter supply (out of fashion).  If you can find them, yes, you can still project a classic look.[/quote]
