need some opinions on Luciano Natazzi suits

post #1 of 14
Thread Starter 

So, I just graduated college, and have been thinking about investing in some nice suits for my new job. I found this Luciano Natazzi suit online and it seems like a good deal considering the original price. I don't really know too much about suits though, so I wanted to get some opinions.

Seems like a midrange suit. You could do better for $500-$600.

Oh, and anything over 120's is not really ideal for everyday wear, unless of course you've got money to burn.

Not to be too pedantic, which i am, the proper English for your recent academic achievement
is "graduated FROM college", not graduated college. You are lucky that I didn't interview you
for your new job. Nevertheless, I wish you great success in your career!

Perhaps, then, you should consider not writing run-on sentences. Or does your rank as interviewer confer upon you immunity from poor syntax?

From the usage note at Merriam Webster:

In the 19th century the transitive sense (1a) was prescribed; the intransitive was condemned. The intransitive prevailed nonetheless, and today it is the sense likely to be prescribed and the newer transitive sense (1b) the one condemned. All three are standard. The intransitive is currently the most common, the new transitive the least common.

Don't settle for this one just yet.

Sorry, I didn't realize I was posting this thread at work. It sounds to me like you need to get laid.

 

If we are talking about syntax, then you should probably re-read what your response to my post was, OR is using "or" at the beginning of a sentence correct, AND I'm mistaken.

As an interviewer, I enjoyed many immunities, including long discursive sentences.

now going back to the suit...?

160 is not a suitable cloth for a suit for work unless you have dozen and can rotate.

Ok. I ended up not getting that one anyways.. any recommendations on where to buy some everyday suits? Also, I was thinking about buying these allen edmonds:

Are they good quality/value?

i emailed the guy selling that suit and asked for proof that the suit ACTUALLY retailed for over $2k and he sent back the worlds nastiest response. in sum, he was full of s#!t. dont bother. they probably are nice suits but stick with stuff that has a proven track record. i dont know what you do but if you arent making bucks, you kinda will look silly rocking a suit that costs more than a months pay...actually, i think the real advice is to buy a suit that costs what you make a week. true story. and if you make more than $3000 a week, then have suits hand made so they fit you like a glove. you should never spend more than $1500 on a suit bc after that amount, you are only paying for the name. check out the mid-range Brooks Brothers suits or the high end Jos A Bank suits (they retail for some dumb amount but on a sale day, which is any day that ends in -Y- , you can get 3-for-1...  their signature gold suits are a 'good' not great, quality, super 120, high sheen, pick stitching, and if it falls apart, they are so big corporate-wise that you write an email complaining and they send you a free one (done it before). good luck. and to those that want to pick apart my english and grammar, yes, i know i spelt grammar wronge.

The actual difference between 120 and 150 is in a few microns - invisible to the human eye or to the touch. At the same time the fabric of 150 is WAY weaker. And to be honest, 120s will give you more cushin than 150s :-)

I am genuinely pedantic, therefore I will correct you.
1. "which i am, " should be with a capital I
2. You should have then written the word "but " after your comma.
i.e., Not to be too pedantic, which I am, but........
