Hello Everyone,
I am a 25 year old professional located in NY. blah, blah blah..
So I just landed a position as a paralegal at a big firm in my area. While I do not wish to eventually become an attorney. I do want to possibly advance my career as a paralegal. And my appearance needs to match my work ethic.
This finds me on the market for new suits, possibly 2-3 at about $1,3000 - $1,500 each.
I know my options are slim so I am open to OTR or MTM.
- Based of some research, Ive come to the conclusion that my best MTM options are Mr. Ned, Martin Greenfield, and Suitsupply.
Can anyone recommend one over the other? why? possible photos?
----
- As for OTR im considering paying regular price for a suit in the $1,300 range and getting it altered.
(Brooks Brothers, Ring Jacket (The Armoury) or maybe Suitsupply as well.)
OR
Shop the Saks, NM and Barneys outlets around me and possibly find some E Zenga, HF, Canali or Isaia suits in a 36 or 38R and get those altered as well
As I mentioned before I am located in NY so I have all 5 boroughs to explore.
BTW: I am about 5'8-5'9 and 155 lbs
Ive always had a skinny frame but I have leaned up over the years
oh and I have pretty massive calves and thighs because of hs & college soccer
I also tend to lean more towards the slimmer fitting , less boxy fitting suits, but NOT skin tight. I really like the way suitsupply and the armoury have their catalogues
