              Body shape plays a big part into whether off-the-rack suits fit well or not. Thinner is usually better, hence why catwalk models are slim

                    @1st-Amendment: Use paragraphs.

                    You were conflating two entirely separate issues- whether off the rack clothes fit the average person, and what body shapes people find appealing.

                    Your average suit is not built for a rail thin catwalk model, they're made for your average person. I'm skinny AF and as a result, every suit that has ever fit me was bespoke. Even MTM suits don't fit me.

                      Oh you were confounded by the lack of a carriage return? Interesting.

                      You were conflating two entirely separate issues-

                      Nope, they are the same issue… Slim is usually good for off-the-rack fit.

                      whether off the rack clothes fit the average person, and what body shapes people find appealing.

                      Now that you've used your words I can help clear up where you went wrong. The part you missed was when I used the word 'usually'. This means not always.

                      Having actually worked in the fashion industry, I can tell you that most designer clothes are designed for skinny people, then scaled up for some larger sizes which is why they never quite work the same on fatties. A friends of mine is what they call a 'size-fit model' Which means she has the right shape (ie slim) that everything looks good on. She can walk into almost any (designer) store and almost everything fits and looks great. This may not be the case at K-mart or Big W, But I figure we're talking about quality stuff here.

                      I'm skinny AF

                      I also used to live in Hong Kong where some dudes are literally 45kg and still had nice clothes. So they do exist.

          Sure can prob get the same quality in Vietnam for $250 but…. Yeah. If you wanna just get measured locally and pick and order instead of flying to Vietnam I'd recommend them.

          Edit: definitely go instore to get measured up and select fabrics.

          Do you recommend any other suit places ?

          Only recommendation is that you get what you pay for, and a proper tailor made suit requires multiple fitting sessions with the suitably experienced tailor and this costs money. a single measure and drop ship isn't going to cut it.
          You might be lucky and have a body shape that fits close enough to rack sizes, but if not, prepare to pay for quality tailoring.

          I went with Brent Wilson (in Sydney) but I believe they also have presence in Melbourne. Really happy with the outcome and the work they did. Only one adjustment needed (make the vest a bit broader at the chest). The pants and jacket were perfect.

          I didnt have a great experience with Institchu (got shirts made). It took almost 4 adjustments before they got it about right. I ended up buying shirts from Charles Tyrwhitt as my backup, and they ended up fitting better!

          As for suit hire vs have a suit made, well…it depends on your budget and style, but I'd say if you have the funds, get a suit made, but have it be one that you can use again.

          If you have a fairly standard bodyshape, find something that fits off the rack and maybe have it adjusted a bit.

          Custom suits are for people who are harder to fit- they are not necessarily 'better quality.' And they can be a lot of hassle- e.g. you should have at least two separate fitting sessions and not simply be measured up in 5 minutes the first time you walk into a store.

          • Wolfhound on 21/06/2024 - 13:46

            @rumblytangara: Ah, I was under the impression that custom suits were better quality, stitching and everything. I was open to investing some time and get it properly measured to fit me (slim build) compared to just getting one off the shelf.

      Before you try this, go to an oxford shop when they are on sale and see if they fit - they end up being under $300 a suit when on sale if you get 2, are made with nice cloth (super 100 or 120 from italy that wears nicely for a couple of years at least) and might just fit you nicely off the rack.
      I am an old office worker with Anthony Squires, Canali and Oxford suits in my current rotation and the Oxford ones compare very well with the others which are significantly more expensive.

      • Naigrabzo on 21/06/2024 - 12:19

      for this price and you are graduating also might need another suit for work later, give them a go. I wouldn't trust yourself providing measurements to them so if there's a local shop, go in.

      • Wolfhound on 21/06/2024 - 13:47

      Graduating from what? If it's a one off suit, just get it from MJ Bale (Wool) or even cheaper at Peter Jackson which is mostly polyester I think. IF you are graduating in Summer, maybe consider a linen suit although will look more chillaxed.

      • Wolfhound on 21/06/2024 - 13:48

        Nah I would rather use it in the future maybe. Wanted something with a nicer quality fabric/fit. Not sure how good they would be if it’s from some sweatshop in Vietnam as mentioned above :/

          +1

          If you want a nice suit, what you should look for is, custom made, full canvas (non fused), italian or English wool fabric, and made exactly the way you want it to fit.

          After that, just make sure you never get old or put on weight as it won't fit anymore.

          Vietnamese sweatshops make good fit suits but they are lower quality fabrics, fused canvas. I have personally have these made and they last a long time as they are polyester!

        Don't get a linen suit.

        • Naigrabzo on 21/06/2024 - 14:27

          Dude, these days very few Linen suits are pure linen. It's always a blend and they are relatively resistant to wrinkles. But I agree with you on principle though.

        • bangiebargie on 23/06/2024 - 11:54

          I was just going to make some recommendations based on your location. I'm in Melbourne and know the suiting scene here fairly well — I tend to recommend (based on my own current rotation) P Johnson, Oscar Hunt, Adriano Carbone, and Modern Classic, each having their different speciality and price range.

          I don't know anything about what you're graduating from or your circumstances etc etc, but I would strongly recommend getting just one suit made at first. Better to have one well-fitting, versatile suit that will last you years than to buy two suits that don't hit the mark.

          For anyone buying a first suit, I would suggest Oscar Hunt (entry-level range, standard 'workhorse' cloth). But note you'll just be able to get one MTM suit at this price, perhaps with a second trouser if you can stretch the budget. They'll also adjust the suit as needed if you add/lose 5kg weight in future. Somewhere like Oscar Hunt will also be very good at helping you pick the right suit for your industry, and everyone working there has the requisite taste level too.

          If you want other suggestions please let me know. Suiting a passion of mine.

    Have used these guys a number of times, with mixed results initially but now perfect every time. Tip is to get them to do the measuring up at one of their showrooms. They have access to more measurement dimensions and also can work off standard sized suits in store that they pin up so you can see what you’ll get and also ask for the sizing tweaks you would like.

    • Naigrabzo on 21/06/2024 - 12:18

      Could you elaborate more on bad experience? Did they do the right thing by you or did you just have to suck it up?

      I used to get custom suit with two trousers from Vietnam (had to go in person) for A$300 each. The material however is definitely not wool. It's polyester with fused full canvas which can wrinkles after about 5 years. Hard wearing though. I am sure inflation has made prices higher over the year.

        Yes absolutely, if you’re unhappy with the fit they will remake it for you for free. Problem is only really the delay in the remake.

    Measure up, send it to China and hope they get it right.. had a bad experience with them and went to MJ Bale instead

      To be fair, a lot of other 'higher end' and priced MTM suit shops do the same. The key is, the person/company fitting you, and, the QC with the factory/tailor overseas.

    Any votes of confidence?
    JV?

    Went to these guys in Perth for all suits in the bridal party 3 months in advance. One suit arrives 3 weeks before the wedding to try on, completely wrong colour…. (was meant to be sage green, got tan) have to get a new one express made to arrive in time for the wedding, correct material/colour is out of stock and cant be ordered in time, so have to go for incorrect shade. Receive the replacement suit couple days before wedding, no time to have any further alterations done if it were incorrectly fitting, spend the next 2 months going back and forth with support to get reimbursed, best they end up doing is $400 back on ~$1200 suit (which they forget to send for a month) from a total order of what would've been about 8 suits and $5000, which did not feel like adequate compensation (considering its the wrong colour, couldn't really get alterations done prior to wedding). If time weren't a factor I would have refunded the suit at the time and gone elsewhere. Rest of the suits in the bridal part were good enough, with them being able to alter any problems prior to the wedding.

    TL;DR Not a fan, YMMV.
