So after a few suits at WW Chan I think I have sort of figured out what kind of silhouette I want/am suited to; something that has strong shoulders, fuller chest, significant waist suppression, low button stance, and tapered sleeves/pants...and I am thinking of splurging on a tux from either savile row or one of the more well known italian tailors like caraceni, attolini, or cifonelli in paris, something that i can wear for a lifetime basically.
from the research that i've done it seems that huntsman/gieves hawkes have the most militaristic house styles on the row, is this correct? and maybe cifonelli in paris? whereas the italian tailors have much more natural shoulders? I take that "militaristic" would basically be the style that I've mentioned above?
Just wanted to check with everyone here who are far more experienced and knowledgeable than I to see if I am on the right track, and whether someone can point me down the right path if it is not the case, are there other houses that I should look at and possibly consider?
Thanks for everything!
