Out of them all my favorite is probably the Zegna suits. But as you can obviosuly see its harder to pick out a man’s suit from designer sketches than it is to choose a woman’s dress. Men’s suits are all about the look, feel, and fit of the suit. The fabric used is a vital element and pictures just can’t give you an adequate view of them. That said, these designers did a pretty good job in individualizing their styles and clearly whichever suit he chooses will be exquisite.
Marc Jacobs, Nautica, Richard James, and Tommy Hilfiger.
zegna and marc jacobs
Marc Jacobs? Suits? Oh please…
TIM HAMILTON! …Now that’s a suit!
Where’s Ralph Lauren Purple Label?! I like the tommy hilfiger and Brooks Brothers
OF course the Feragamo
It would have to be the nautica. It’s just got the Presidental swag to it. And Barack don’t really rock a bow tie to much.
