just wondering what you all thought of my early prom suit idea...Originally Posted by KAALA
What is everyone recommendation for a slim fitting, well constructed navy blue suit with a drop of 8? I ask here because I have a pretty large aversion to creating new threads for stupid questions, but I've suddenly found myself in need of a suit and, with a budget of around $500, am sort of afraid of getting screwed.Originally Posted by Dai19

I'm not big on the whole slim suit thing, but if that is what you're looking for and your price point is $500, you could probably do worse than Thick as Thieves. There's not much else in that price range unless you go second-hand or down-market.Originally Posted by dah328
I have an extremely small wardrobe, and I'm trying to build from scratch. BB is currently having a sale on shirts, and I thought I'd buy two or four prior to the Father's Day sale in case my size goes out of stock. I was planning to get two OCBD's - one in blue, and one in pink. Does that sound good? If I could get two other shirts, what would you recommend? (I was thinking about the blue stripped OCBD, but I'm not sure for a fourth shirt.)Originally Posted by enarchay
Sounds like you are going for the slim look?Originally Posted by SpooPoker
It sounds like you're going for more of a fleeting fashionable look rather than a timeless stylish look. Bear in mind that you're asking opinions from a forum that prefers the latter except when the streetwear & denim folks wander over or when a bunch of guys come in near the end of the school year asking about prom attire. Even if you're going for the fashionable look, you should ditch the gingham shirt in favor of a plain white one because you have too many two-tone black and white items. If you're going for a stylish look, well, you need to start from square one.Originally Posted by dah328

Well, not a slim suit (I'm still in the newbie mindset that slim=fitted) but a well-made navy suit that will fit my body. After checking out the TAT site, I'm not sure I'm really the body type that they cater to; I've got pretty broad shoulders and a tiny waist compared to my hips. More of a Ralph Lauren body than a Dior body. Any more recommendations for places in my area to check out?Originally Posted by Dai19
