Can anyone give a few recommendations on what to look for when choosing fabric for a suit? Weight, feel, look. Specifically, what do you look for when choosing a fabric, beyond (or including) the color and pattern. I have come to learn much about the fit and options for suits, but less about what to look for in a fabric, other than knowing something that looks nice when I see it. Can anyone provide any tips, specific things to look for/think about?
For instance - I know that some members here have had difficulty with a finished suit because the fabric they chose was too thin, or "too fine" (something about the stitching in the canvas showing through.
I ask with an eye towards trying Jantzen for a suit when in HK next week. Thanks.
