Where to get a good suit?
I'm going to be the best man at my brother's wedding in Italy in a few weeks and I need a suit. I've never bought a suit before and have no idea what to look for or what I should expect to spend.

[/ QUOTE ] A) Why not a tuxedo? B) Go to Nordstrom's, they will be able to hook you with with a suit for about $800. That is probably what I would classify as a "good" suit, but what do I know anyway?

Correct. It's rare in most of Europe and S.A.

Go talk to my man Kambiz at Nino Ferretti. 761 S. Los Angeles St. Los Angeles, CA 90014. [/ QUOTE ] I'll take your word for it that your man Nino is good, but I live in Chicago, and I'm not gonna make the trip to LA just to buy a suit.

Re: Where to get a good suit?
think about it. the roundtrip airfare is probably $300. You can stay at the Commerce and earn your suit. Kambiz will hook you up the suit for you, for cheap, $300-400 for some sweet threads. I think he steals the [censored]. so basically if you go to Nordstrom's you're gonna fork out minimum $1300 for a decent suit. Trust me you don't want to be cheap when you buy a suit.

[/ QUOTE ] This is intruiging, as I live in LA and need some suits. Have you been to the Barney's Wearhouse Sale? That's usually where I get my business clothes, but I missed the August round and it's not back until February.

Re: Where to get a good suit?
I've never been to Barney's. I've never been to Nino Ferretti either. But my friend who is a lawyer and a slick dresser goes there. He dresses so good he might be a closet gay, even though he has a wife. I'm going there next time I'm in LA. We could go on a man date and buy clothes. How gay would that be?
