Hi all,
Buying my first suit, and need a piece of advice.
I'm tall and skinny (6'3", 180lbs), and need a suit in a couple of weeks - don't see MTM as possible. No foreseeable business use for this suit, a couple of fairly formal weddings are coming up, and I figured it was time I suited up. I tried on BR's Navy Monogram suit, and really like the fit better than the Ludlow and others. I also like the Navy fabric, however could use a few opinions on it since I'm not sure how traditional it is.
Does anyone who has seen this fabric in person or who owns this suit have an opinion? It is navy with black woven in - it almost appears charcoal from some angles, and navy from others. Definitely does not appear black in person. I have some nice black AE Park Avenues to wear with it.

I know that I am overpaying for the quality, but like I said, I won't be wearing this very often, and I am totally comfortable with the price.
Thanks for your thoughts!
