Jos. A Bank signature tuxedo. original retail $700, will probably cost $100 ish new on Ebay .
it has all the classic styling I want, and it's my size (46R)
I would certainly be prepared to take this to a quality tailor to have it fitted, spend a couple hundred on waist suppresion, etc.
but, this is all a waste if it looks cheap. so, StyleForum, tell me this is a bad idea, and tell me to go have one MTM by Mr. Ned instead.
thanks!

this is for my wedding. I want to look nice, and frankly don't care all that much about how long the tux lasts, if I wear it 7 more times before WWIII destroys us all I would be surprised.Finest Super 110s wool. Single-breasted peak lapel jacket with Bemberg lining and grosgrain satin lapels and buttons. One button closure. Unvented and fully lined. Single-pleat trousers with grosgrain satin stripe, half lined to the knee.
