I had 3 suits, but wore out the pants on a burberry I had. Now I am down to a solid navy Zegna, and an old hugo boss in dark gray. Most suits i tend to find that fit my budget (around 800 or so at a discount place like off fifth whatever) tend to be slimmer cut isaia with flat fronts, or something like that. I am 6' 1" and around 200 pounds which is around 25 pounds overweight for me. Even when i am skinnier I have a huge ass, and child bearing hips, so flat fronts will never work for me ever. I am not sure what line of zegna suit I have but I really really like it, but cant find anything locally in the same line for around what I paid (650). It may be Z by Zegna? I dont think it is because I have a Z by Zegna shirt, and the labels are different. My question is what type of suits can i get in like a light grey flannel for maybe 800 or 850 or less with pleats? I really like this Zegna Suit I have no matter what line it is, and would want something at least as good if not better. I need a new suit ASAP. Please help

HEre is the label of the zegna I currently have, any ideas?
