I'm getting married in October and I'm wearing a MTM morning coat from Brooks Brothers and my groomsmen are wearing charcoal suits, also from Brooks Brothers. One of them is going to be in town today so we're going to the store for him to be fitted. He's pretty slim at 6'4" so just wondering which fit would be best - Regent or Fitzgerald?
I always thought the Fitzgerald was the slimmer of the two but the salesman I spoke to last month said the Regent was. He'll definitely need the trimmer one as I doubt he tops 180lbs.
Are the lapels on the Fitzgerald still "Mad Men" skinny? That's one of the things that worries me about that cut, that it'll look even more dated next year or the year after, especially since these guys don't wear suits but once or twice a year. Their wives are happy that I'm getting them to buy a suit, though.
