Tried on a couple 1818 Fitzgerald's today and loved the fit; a very nice and slim silhouette. However, the suit construction seemed average to me. I was wondering if there are any other suits out there that have flat front trousers and slim jackets? The fit really is fantastic on those suits.

The one mentioned the most seems to be the Ralph Lauren Black Label, but it has more structured shoulders and lower button stance.

Oh, yeah, use the search function. This topic has been discussed a lot here.

Well, I see it is often compared to RLBL, but I want to know if there are other suits as well.

If you have access, go to Barney's or any decent mens department and ask what is cut slim with thinner lapels (about 3 inches). Others that come to mind are D&G, Thom Brown, Hickey (not Hickey Freeman), maybe some Burburry, maybe some Zenga ...
