D'Avena Wool + Silk blend too shiny?

[ap307]

Dear all,

Recently purchased a blue D'Avenza suit in a 90% wool / 10% silk fabric.

I think the suit (with some minor tailoring) will be a good fit, but concerned that perhaps the material is too "shiny"?

Your thoughts on whether this would would work well in a professional environment (e.g. investment bank, law firm) would much appreciated.

Also, if anyone has thoughts on the durability of the fabric, that would be appreciated to (the fabric is incredibly light - much lighter than any other wool suit I own).

Best,
AP

Durability? Not enough information about the fineness of the wool. 90% wool shouldn't be too shiny. However, the blue looks distinctly non-navy, which could limit the suit's versatility.
