I don't lie Fudgie.

The lapels have balls. I was hoping to unload all the other stuff I have and maybe keep this but alas...................

I have a question. Would the Canali suit be good for working in a conservative industry like a big four accounting firm?

I work in a conservative industry and dress a bit more colorful than others and it has not been an issue. SuitingStyle bought the same suit and I think he is also in accounting or law. The stripes are muted and the background is charcoal so I, as the seller, thinks it would work

Maybe SuitingStyle will respond with his thoughts.

I am in banking, but the suit itself is not "flamming" in a lack of better word, by any strech of imagination. I would wear that in my office any day, but then I work in a French bank, where most of my French co workers wear more fasion forward suits in general, so maybe I am not the best person to give an opinion.

Also, on a side note, this suit is slightly more slim fitting than the usual Canali cut, higher armhole, does have a slight waist suppresion, and best course, flat front pants ..... so you could even wear it business casually without a tie on a friday ( pair it with a pink or dark blue shirt)
