Hello gentlemen,
First a little background information, I'm a 24 year old student, nearly have my masters in finance, and soon I'm looking to buy my first (real) suit. I have to admit I don't know that much about fashion (let alone suits), which is why I thought it would be a good idea to ask for some help, this is also how I found this forum.
At first I thought I would just buy a regular (non tailored) suit, but since meeting a few people in tailored suits and seeing how great they looked, I've made up my mind and decided to spend some more cash and also get a tailored one.
After some research and hearing alot of good things about them I've decided to get my suit at suit supply, what I'm not realy sure about is what kind of fit I should go for.
I'm 5'11 (180 cm's) and I weigh about 150 lbs (68 kgs), I have a very slim waist line and slightly build shoulders from working out. I have a shaved head (few mm's) since balding runs in the family and blue eyes.
I've added the picture below to give you an idea of my build.
I've looked at the suits suit supply has and I narrowed my choices down to the a dark blue Napoli, London or Washington fit.
What I'm looking for is a slim fit that suits my bodytype well, I have no idea which one I should pick for this.
My budget to spend on my suit is around 500 euro's, which is excluding the shoes.
So basicaly what I'm looking for is tips on what fit I should go for and any other general tips you might have for a first time suit buyer, like tips on shoes or a tie etc.
Thanks in advance
