But can really get the same style from Zegna (super-wide lapels and hour glass)?
Why would you want super-wide lapels anyways? Just buy a vintage 70's suit. Sounds like a good idea if you have more money then sense. 5K seems a bit steep for what he's offering. For that price you could go full bespoke with some of the best tailors around like Shattuck, Logsdale, Raphael? And get a one of a kind suit the way you want it. Your money not mine.

Bespoke means you are the designer. MTM means Tom Ford is the designer. Guess who designs better?
I'm not sure what people don't understand about this. Sure, it's Zegna fabric, but he cuts them his way, not the Zegna way. You're looking at broad shoulders, wicked lapels (he prefers the peak), an abundance of vests, and the slim waist line for the hour-glass look.
How different are the different are the Tom Ford suits from the suits he designed for Gucci and YSL? I guess the quality is better? Some of the Gucci suits I saw were fully canvassed while the YSL didn't seem to be - not sure why such a difference would exist.
Well, if he likes Tom Ford (which I myself can understand), the answer to your (rhetorical) question isn't as obvious as you obviously mean.
