First and foremost this forum is great, been reading for days and decided to jump in.
I am fat, consequently finding proper fitting clothing tends to be a struggle. Being fat and non proportional makes buying a suit near impossible. I had managed to build up a decent collection of clothing but then decided it was time for a life change and started a diet/exercise program where I have lost just over 60lbs
I have made all the possible alterations made to every suit I own (short of a recut) but I have run out of options, I need to make some new purchases.
I am not done with my weight loss but a few events coming up will require the purchase of one or mores suits. Since I hopefully will shrink out of them I don't want to break the bank.
Currently I am 6ft even, 225lbs. My chest measure 43, and my waist 41 (very disproportional). When I head to the department stores I always end up in a 46/47R suit in order to provide the proper pant size and jacket over belly size but this leaves the upper part of the suit simply lacking.
Anyone else out there proportionally similar? Do you have any recommendations? Remember I am still loosing so I don't want to break the bank here.
Thanks
