Prada and Gucci starts at 1700euro --> around 2000 dollars I rekon? (retail , I know is easy to find them on sales for 1\2 but still...) 

dolce&gabbana mainline biiit less but still around 1500; 

I still think you get more for the money with suitsupply than those 3 (and I REALLY don't like suitsupply), beside being made by Zegna or Belvest is not exacly like being made by Caruso or similar..

With the money you spend on gucci or prada you can get a waaaaaaaaaaaaay better suit(in here even bespoke,dunno in USA) , the fact that you are paying at least 50% of the price on a 1x2,5 inches label inside the jacket is IMHO a sufficient reason to despite them!

That's the beauty of democracy everyone is free to have his own opinion :-)

I really think Caruso is better than Zegna expecially,anyway

By the way,I ment to ask , does anyone of you know who ralph lauren purple label uses in itay to make their suits?

As for your question regarding RLPL they used to use St Andrea (St Andrews) for purple label but there have been pictures of some made by Caruso and i remember reading in another thread that they stopped using St Andrews.

Ah thanks!

Cause this friend of mine who works in a high-end shop in my town told me that one of  the company rlpl uses to make their suits in italy also make a line on their own wich is very similar and cost 1\4(he mentioned me st. Andrews but not Caruso, I will check it out).

Ps. How much would you pay for a winter RLPL suit in USA ? Cause I saw one I love in their shop in Milano but was like 5500 euro ... don't know you guys but with that money I rather have it made by rubinacci :-)
