Tried the quick q. thread, but figured a thread wouldn't hurt.
I'm a med student. I'm quite athletic, played rugby and still row for university.
Need a new suit since I haven't gotten one since my last interview and I've grown out of that. I'm based in the UK so popping to London is quite easy for me.
I prefer British styled suits that are slim with a mid-slightly lower button point, as little shoulder padding as possible. I've already looked into the whole full, half canvas and fused malarkey, but there are so many posts on this forum it's a lot of effort to go through it all when I have more pressing matters on my plate. Just going to go for the standard 1-2 button dark navy/charcoal suit and all that jazz I reckon.
I'm not stupid and am not going to buy a bespoke suit when my age and status does not require it. Been looking at entry level suits that may be half canvassed such as Austin Reed and Rees (according to this thread, though I have read posts that contradict this somewhere in my searches).
I just need a little suggestion or two for decent brands available in the UK at the price point of the previously mentioned brands.
If I was in my final year of medical school, I'd be more willing to damage my account and go all of the way with a good MTM or bespoke suit. But that isn't the case, I'm a 22 year old med student who's still a way off, so a reasonable entry level suit will do for now.
