If you were in SWLA- you go to New Look Fashions. Pick up a tux for $100 too.

I understand. I'm international in my position and I wear suits to business events, social gatherings, and funerals. If I didn't do that, I'd have no needs for suits.

My work is business casual so no need there. I really have only worn a suit to funerals in the past 6-8 years. I can't remember the last wedding I've attended but it's probably been 10 years. Most people that I interview at work don't even wear one.

Be sure to get a European cut with no pant pockets.

This just isnt true at all

You can get Calvin Klein suits and Ralph Lauren suits for around $100

Slim fit and tailored well, any normal person wont notice it isnt a $1000 suit

I got this suit for $129 at Macys last year

Dont get a 100 dollar suit.

Its somethign that you wont wear often, but when you do make it a nice one. It doesnt have to be that expensive, but decent suits can be found for 300 to 500

My favorite is by bluffworks and its machine washable.

450 for a great fitting very comfortable suite


You paid $450 for a POLYESTER suit?

You can get a 100% polyester suit at Macy's for $375 LESS. Hell, you can get a 100% wool suit for $150. It's by no means the top of the line. But at least it is wool....which is what a suit SHOULD be made of. No decent suit should be "machine washable" unless, maybe, it is a cotton poplin suit.

No, you can't. You can get boy's and toddler's suits for $100, not a decent men's suit.

That's over the stipulated price of $100, isn't it?

I just found two suits on clearance at The Menswearhouse for $99. If only I was a 38 or 42 short.

Amazon has several brands of very good blazers and jackets you can combine with dressy pants and they look great...tie or no tie. P&L is one brand of Amazon jacket; $70 shipped.
