Yoox/Ebay deadlines approaching, and I'm a little stymied.
Here's option #1, Dries van Noten on Yoox, $638: Yoox
And here's option #2, RL Black Label on Ebay, $524: Ebay
I have a navy suit and a charcoal pinstripe one, so neither would fill a major gap in my wardrobe (though the navy is two button, and not pinstripe, and the charcoal is three button, so there'd be some variation). My job doesn't really have a dress code -- anything from bespoke suits to jeans and jumpers is possible. Personally, I'm a little more inclined to the Dries, especially as the RL looks a little roomier than I would like; but it's lying flat, and given Black Label's rep for slim fitting, somewhat fashion-forward suits I wonder if it's just poorly photographed. By Dries standards, that suit is not particularly fashion forward -- from the Yoox images, it looks fairly timeless to me.
Sometime in the next two hours or so, I have to make the call, and I have a hard time making up my mind. I can't get both. Help me!
