My purchase of a suit for my buddy and his wife's marriage vows renewal FINALLY
got me pondering the right suits and other formal and casual wear for me.
At 59,I'm short,VERY muscular and somewhat beefy-I'm 5'8",210-225 lb.,sport 181'2"
biceps,EXTREMELY broad shoulders and possess something of a beer gut-but I'm also said to have boyish good looks.While I require a Size 46 Regular suit and Size 42X30 trousers,what colour and cut suit would emphasize both my brawn-and distract attention
from my mid-section-AND highlight my looks?
