Hi /fa/, I need some help. I'm in Year 12 and I've

Oh yeah, and would the extra cost to get a suit tailored be worth it?

The little bit of extra expense won't really be too much of an issue, but I won't be able to pay for a suit that's over $500 as I'm still a teenager who doesn't have a job.

Rent one and then lose some goddamn weight. Now go to /fit/.

>tfw might pass up a sale at my favorite store because I want my shoulders to get a little bigger

>>11189892
Yeah, I've been trying to. I weighed 100kg in October, so it's not like I'm not trying, but I definitely won't reach an appropriate weight by May 31st.

Yes. The only excuse to take a suit off the rack (ie as is) is if you're renting a tux. Upscale mall shops will often offer tailoring in-store, Nordstrom for example. I think Men's Warehouse does too. You can get a complete suit of good enough quality for sub-$300.

I wouldn't suggest spending any more than that as you're likely not done growing and should be planning to lose weight post-highschool in any case.

Your tailor should give you advice. Start making a point to eye anyone you see wearing suits, in real life and in movies, ads, etc. and learn what you personally prefer. Do some googling to learn the basics of the different kinds ie italian vs british vs american, etc. to better inform yourself on what you're looking for. Use common sense and don't try anything gaudy or untraditional and be realistic about your figure. The ideal is to try and find examples of people with a similar body shape to you wearing suits you think looks good on them.

Sweet, thanks anon. I live in Australia, so I guess I'll go to the city or something to find some good stores there that offer in-store tailoring.

I'll look into different suits and styles and see if there's any that I like.

What are the chances that I'll find suits that fit me when they wouldn't normally fit my size.

And should I go for a tuxedo or the suit with a tie?

A zoot suit is your only option
