Dark brown flannel wedding suit

[goonerble]

Hi all,

Hoping for some advice and feedback please!

I’m getting married in February and am looking to get a suit made.

The shop I’m buying from has some beautiful fox flannel and one colour which has caught my eye is a dark brown. I find it a little tricky to visualise what it would look like from the material sample alone.

The shop is drakes so it would be in their softer, less structured house style which I really like.

Wondering what you think, worried I may end up looking a little like a salesman in the 80’s but on the other hand the colour is dark enough that it shouldn’t come across as orangey and I do like it.

See attached a photo of the style and a sample (top sample).

looking for advice from those who have bought flannel suits before- is it versatile ?

Thanks in advance!

Don’t like the color. I would be concerned that it might appear black. Much prefer the bottom gray sample, if I were picking from the 3.
