Looking to get a new colorful blazer for spring/summer, narrowed it down between these two. Help me decide SF!

Man, this makes me want to try out the Lazio... I have my eye on the light brown faux uni one being I don't have a decent brown suit in my staple.. so I'll have to give it a second look

The 2nd one is already on my purchase list.Hopefully the girlfriend will get it for my birthday coming in less than 2 months. I love the lapels on the 1st blazer but the color on the 2nd blazer did it for me.

Can anyone comment on the sienna blue birds eye? Does it have a "sheen" to the fabric? Some pics look like yes others no.

These are the best shots I can get one of my Washington models. The jacket has not been altered but I did hem the pants.

I like the cut on you except for those glaring dimples or divots in the shoulders..

These dimples appear because of the concave shoulder (structured shoulder) of the jacket.

SuitSupply said that the Washington is their slimmest model, but is this model much slimmer that the Lazio which is a slim modern fit as well?

I think I would go for a Lazio instead of an Washington although I'm looking for the slimmer model because I don't like the peak lapel and the structured shoulder of the Washington.

I know that but it should still not dimple like that.. a lot of times its the ratio of the shoulder pads to the armhole to the way a persons arm naturally hang.. if they are not in harmony that usually happens. Thats what I meant with my comment azumi

Hello everyone; long-time lurker, first-time poster.  I have been looking around for a suitable..err..suit for the last couple of weeks.  I need a good all-around suit for occasional business meetings but also for out-of-the office events that may be significantly less formal/businessy, so something with a bit of a fashion-forward tilt, but not so much that it will look conspicuous in a meeting with a bunch of stodgy guys or look ridiculous in 3-5 years.

Unfortunately for me, I am a rather tough size to find a good off-the-rack fit.  I'm 6'2" tall and weigh around 150 lbs, so I'm certified slim.  The best off-the-rack fit I've experienced recently was the Brooks Brothers Fitzgerald in a 39L - perfect in the shoulders and length, a little roomy in the body (but not bad) and the collar would need a little work to lie flat against my shirt collar.  I'm close to pulling the trigger because the fit is so good, but I just wanted to ask if there is anyone on this forum with a similar body type who has had good luck with any other lines of suits?  I've checked out SuitSupply, but find there different fits to be bewildering to the point that I can tell which might work best with my body type and how well it might strike a balance between business conservative and fashion-forward.

As for budget, although I would love to explore the $1k+ market, I don't think I could swing it any time in the near future, so around $1000 would be toward the upper end of my budget.

Thanks in advance for any thoughts or suggestions you might have.

Would you care to elaborate what you mean ? I have several Suitsupply suits, and haven't noticed any shoulder problems. What model did you look at ?

So, which of the suits have a lower buttoning point? Or are people having that adjusted for prior to placing an order?

Seems like Washington, Lazio, and Havana are nice cuts but by the photos online, the button point is still fairly high or "industry standard." Looking for a navy and charcoal/gray suit.

The Lazio suit above looks to have a much lower buttoning point than the online photos suggest, which is promising.
