I loathe an ill-fitting
suit on a man. Yesterday I had a discussion with a gentlemen friend of
mine who believed he needed to shape up before he could ever don a suit again.
This notion had been brought on by the dreaded rental tux. In reviewing
photos where he was a groomsman at a recent wedding he thought- “wow, I look
terrible.” I would like to note that even a male model, with a body like Greek
statue would look terrible in a rental tux. Their ill fitting nature
leads everyone to look either too thin, or too portly, or worst of all like you
borrowed your father’s suit. I cannot stress enough the difference that a
properly tailored suit makes.
Enter Suit Supply.
This affordable suit company is an excellent option for grooms,
groomsmen, or really anyone in need of a suit. Started in the
Netherlands,
Suit Supply is a suit supper store. While it
isn't going to be bespoke, the cuts and fabrics are top notch. Costs vary based
on the quality of the fabric, but their tuxedo costs $469. Rental tuxes cost
about $300- $500 with shoes, and can never be worn again. For a little bit more grooms can look fabulous and have a suit they
can wear again, and again, and again! Not to mention, shouldn't the
groom look fabulous too?
