Which are the modern slim-cut suit brands?

Hey guys, I own a few suits. Most are more classic suits like Canali and Corneliani but I also have a RLBL Anthony suit. It is the leanest cut (I'm 6' 175 lbs) with a 33" waist and fits me well. It is a 42R but the 42R other suits are looser even in the shoulders. I get compliments on it and while it probably isn't a great quality suit, it appears to be decent and fits me well.

I recently got a new job with a Big Four firm in the consulting division as a director. I would like to buy a few nice suits and sportcoats/blazers. Besides RLBL (which may not be merged with RLPL) Are there other slimmer brands I can look at? I don't want to spend too much on a bespoke suit yet...need to make sure the job is going well first.

I was thinking of a charcoal gray, medium gray, and a navy suit. The blazers can be a little less conservative. Any thoughts would be appreciated. Half or full canvass preferred. Thanks in advance!
