Hard to find dark colored seersucker that doesn't look dorky at work. I recently picked up a really nice Piatelli entirely navy seersucker jacket @ barney's outlet. Looking for matching slacks out there. Best luck I had was a navy pinstripe suit from paul Fredrick. any suggestions? Bonobos had a navy ss suit, but looks purple. closeup of piatelli jacket fabric looks like deep navy alternating with indigo stripe-total effect looks like solid dark navy seersucker. thanks

Unless the company makes a matching jacket, don't try to make a suit out of it. The fabrics won't match perfectly and it will not look right in all likelihood. Enjoy it as an odd jacket. I'm assuming you work in a less traditional / more casual environment where a seersucker suit would be an accepted look?
