First of all, before addressing my orginal question, I would like to know which is the slimmer line of suits and how does RLPL compare to RLBL in this arena? I know RLBL is known to be slim, but I haven't heard the same for RLPL, or the opposite for that matter.
Now on to my orginal question: What are the advantages to RLPL over RLBL? I imagine RLPL has a lot of hand-work, fine detail and superior construction, but does it justify double the retail price?
Now if it were a SF deal and one is looking at $900 for a RLPL suit vs $650 for a RLBL suit, is the decision to pay more for the former a no brainer due to the relatively marginal price difference?
I ask because I am looking to invest in a few nice suits and I know I like the slim cut of the BL line, but I have never tried on a PL suit and may not know what I would be missing. Any guidance would be helpful.
As a side note, if anyone has or will have for sale any RL Purple Label or Black Label suits in 38S or 38R, please PM me as I am looking to purchase 3-4 suits. Thank you
