Barack obama is well know for his slim fit cutting suit.....in BLACK color... Added on April 18, 2010, 11:50 pmQUOTE(kotmj @ Apr 18 2010, 11:43 PM) Difficult to tell, looks like midnight...   I must say they look blackish, but it's difficult to tell from pics...I do know that lots of people wear black in this country. Added on April 18, 2010, 11:45 pmI think now that's navy. Compare with the black sofa in the background. dsn...always wear the navy or black suit.....but black is his FAV.....

I have no idea why obama was listed as esquire's best dressed man. The cut of his suits are typical boxy american style. His pants were also too long.

You only seem to buy high-end fabrics so I'm sure it'll be a great black suit.

So a blazer is for a more casual style? Where could i get one for a cheap price? No ZARA or SEED please due to over budget

QUOTE(idunnolol @ Apr 19 2010, 11:40 AM) seems like you dont really care about fit, cutting and materials. in that case, if all you want is cheap, go to garage sales then. lots of cheap stuff there. some used stuffs in good condition too

QUOTE(idunnolol @ Apr 19 2010, 11:40 AM) Add a few hundred for fabric,u can get a bespoked blazer or sportcoat from Ah Lok Taylor,which will be custom cut and fit for your body.. Get a linen sportcoat instead of blazer,looks amazing when pair with jeans for casual outing.. This post has been edited by silencer: Apr 19 2010, 07:23 PM
