Goodday to all of you I am new here and new to the suit way of life. I have a question that many of you I know you have addressed and dealt with. Is it better to use a good tailor and good fabrics or to buy a suit from a butique store. Please note I am talking about top end quality suits like brioni cornelliani etc. and if using a good tailor is equally good or the value / money ratio is much better what kind of fabrics would you suggest I use or check out . Please treat as an ignorant to the particular since field since I am one and I would like to thank you all for your effort in advance. I already have a canali a caramello and a cornelliani cc

If you have the time to wait, It is always better to ask an experienced tailor to bespeak a suit or any clothing for you.
