Anybody else, when browsing looks/outfits on the web, find it easier to look at female outfits and 'convert' them to a male equivilant, that to just . . . look at male outfits?

Just me? Okay then. :nodding:

Recieved a shipment from American Eagle today thinking I was just going to give it to my little brother. It fits and feels good but is slightly boxy. I am kinda embarrassed how pleased I am. :embar:

Quick fit pic of the J. Crew suit that I got in the mail today. Obviously it still needs to be tailored, and I need a proper dress shirt, tie, belt, shoes, etc. And of course, the angle of the camera and the lighting is making the top half seem larger than it really is. It should look much more balanced IRL. :slayer:

Apart from the pants needing to be hemmed and the sleeves needing to be shortened, are there any critiques on fit? I don't care to be super-MC, but I do want to look better than the average suit-clad interviewee.

Happy I can fit into this ****. I've lost 15 pounds since the beginning of the school year. Got fat over the summer eating good food.

I'd prefer for the pants to be a little slimmer, but on the other hand, it's a suit...

dude srsly? shorter sleeves/hemmed? i think it fits pretty much perfectly. i vaguely recall you saying it's for interviews or someshit? yeah, you don't want slimmer pants. fit is pretty spot on. do not shorten sleeves at all. pant length is personal preference - unless the waist is like way higher than it should be right now i don't see problem in pantlength either...

Sorry, the lighting is pretty bad in the photo. The pants are cuffed right now (about 1.5 inches). I'm thinking of getting them hemmed so that there's no break. The cuff looks really sloppy right now, and is too large for a 5'8" guy like me. Is no break what you SW&D guys usually go for, or do you go for a half-break?

I think the sleeve length is a tiny bit too long -- although it might just be the shirt. The shirt extends about 1/4" past my wrists. You can kinda tell in the photo.

I should have prefaced my original post with a disclaimer that I don't know ****. :eek:

I am pretty satisfied with the fit overall, though. I think the shoulders are pretty good.

Suit fits well, no break on the pants (hem slightly higher than you have shown).
