It's all a matter of preference, and your body type.

Tell us a little about yourself, what suit you're looking at, if it will be used for business or pleasure, etc.

That's a question on the level "Should I take my suit with 2 buttons or 3 buttons?" or "Should I take my steak medium-rare or well-done?". There is no right or wrong in this case, just personal taste and some knowledge about your physique. And since it will be your suit and we know nothing about you, you have to decide what suits you most.

Up to you. I think slim lapels are going out of style. Check Zegna website for lapel ideas.
