best suit options for me in London - Zegna Su Misura versus bespoke

[lovelux2010]

hi

i've had a great time learning on SF about shoes and shirts and bags and heading to c&j, sean o'flynn, etc in London (i live here)
however, its time for me to invest in a quality suit, but i cant decide which direction to take

heres what i'm after:
- great fit (of course) - i'm slender at 145 and around 5'7
- solid dark blue or charcoal grey
- i want something thats going to look great, not something that i'll never wear..
- dark navy or charcoal colour
- budget of £1300 or maybe £1500

i've narrowed it down to:
zegna su misura £1300+
canali OTR and have it adjusted £850+
or bespoke: graham browne, candl, chris kerr, etc (off the row as my budget limited)

so, i really need some help here. i'm scared to go bespoke and be displeased with the results. i suppose OTR or MTM has the advantage in that you have a good idea how the suit is going to fit before its finished..

any suggestions or tips would be very helpful!!

Zegna su misura is probably safest. But bespoke is a much more rewarding experience.

i'm trying to decide between zegna su misura and graham browne..
not easy to find posts with the finished products from either though

Look at Simon Crompton's navy double breasted at Permanent Style (it convinced me to order a suit from GB - should be ready in about 3-4 weeks).

Also consider Sims & Macdonald (about £1000) as well as Connock & Lockie, who are slightly more expensive, and both on the same street.

Bespoke is the only choice.

Do you like any of the current Zegna models?

I saw one recently that I wouldn't hesitate to buy if it weren't $2400.
