Bar III is Macy's in-house brand, and I went in today to try on the slim suits.
Extra-slim was no where to be found in the store, but based on reviews the extra-slim tend to fit like Zara's ultra skinny suits.

Their slim fit seemed to fit slim enough surprisingly
Could I get some feedback on the suit fit?

36R: Noticed a bit of tugging at the button, but no overhang/lip at the shoulders.



Side:

8R (Different Color Same Brand): No tugging at the buttons, small lip/overhang at the shoulders, looks more boxy than 36R but waist can be taken in + arms shortened



Side:


I would be buying it for $250, retail $650.
Any feedback/comments/other suggestions are welcome

Have someone take the pic of you at chest level. We can't see the proper fit.

Definitely don't get the 38 though. The 36 looks better but still looks wide up top and narrow at the hips... but it could be the angle you took the pic.
