Hello,
I would like to first off say that this is a great site and I have learned a great deal about suits.
Now on to my dilemma, I am looking around for a suit for my wedding reception which I hope to make a statement wearing and use in the future for work.
I live in Vancouver, Canada were we are suckered into buying from Harry Rosen or Holt. I am very particular and am hoping to find a dark gray color and if possible a 3 piece. I saw one at the Hugo Boss store ( which I know is a SF sin) for $1195 plus taxes (regular price for a James Sharp 2). It fits well and I love the color. Then I saw another one at Zegna for about $1200 (50% of ticketed price of $2400). The Zegna one is obviously better constructed from what I have read on this site and the suit is beautiful as well. Only thing is I prefer the Hugo Boss suit as the color is nicer and its also a 3 piece. The final choice is just buying one from the Hugo Boss outlet for about $500 with taxes. What would you do in my situation?
I don't mind sacrificing the 3 piece for something thats about the third of the cost if I were to get it at States, I am just worried that they may not have my size(38R).
Thanks for your help.
