Where can you buy a suit that isn't aggressively slim?
I've been starting to look for a sand/light tan suit for my summer wedding in Santa Barbara next year, and one thing I know is that I'd like a more traditional cut of suit than I was going for a few years back when I had to wear suits for work.
The general consensus seems to be that slim suits and narrow lapels have been on the outs for a while, so I've been surprised at how hard it is to find a label/designer that works in this style. Would love any recommendations on where to look... Obviously the ease and cost-effectiveness of something like the SuitSupply MTM program is attractive, but having owned their suits and gone through tailoring with them before, I know they lean rather fitted. If there's a way to avoid trying to fit a square peg into a round hole with them, I'm curious to hear it.
