Suit brands with wide relaxed fit like 50s Cary Grant or 80s Richard Gere

[ny2918]

Any recommendations for quality Off the Rack suit brands with a wider, more relaxed fit like 50s Cary Grant or 80s Richard Gere? I have some 90s Armani suits and love the wide, drapey, comfortable fits, tho they're not really wearable for other reasons currently.

I'm asking because I have muscular legs and the slim or even straight fits of today's suits are way too tight and uncomfortable. I know Suit Supply now has relaxed trousers but their suits only come with regular fits. Armoury's Ring suits are close, but I wouldn't mind another inch in their leg opening.

Thanks for any recommendations!

I would advise either MtM or bespoke as the zeitgeist is a regular fit or a slim fit.

MTM sites like Luxire, or Proper Cloth, or Collaro, will absolutely make trousers/suits like that. I use Luxire and most of my items are in that style. However, you have to figure out the measurements that look good on you.

Well actually, Giorgio Armani released a Richard Gere capsule collection:

Giorgio Armani Gere Line Double-Breasted Virgin Wool Crêpe Suit | Suits | Harry Rosen

A tribute to historic archive looks, this crêpe and virgin wool double-breasted suit celebrates the aesthetic of the 1980s with its completely deconstructed design and distinctive inverted A-line.

The above is just one piece from the collection.

For me the ultimate Gary Grant suit (and hat) is from 1940:
