I agree with that, I only own two suits, olive and black... I find that the olive works well in many situations, and where it doesn't, the black suit picks up the slack.
I saw the big/tall links and post earlier, but I have a few questions of my own if everyone doesn't mind...
I'm 6'5" tall, roughly 320 pounds and am working on losing some weight...
Finding clothing seems to be especially difficult, I have a fairly even frame.. my torso and legs are pretty balanced, yet I still have a difficult time with purchasing clothing that is comfortable and stylish at the same time.
I have a problem finding shirts that are a correct size for me.. shirts that are long enough are generally too large around the torso, and shirts great around the torso are generally too short. In my world, even the "tall" sizes seem to be incorrect. Is my only hope to have custom tailored shirts like oxfords? Any ideas?
The same seems to apply with jeans, and only a few manufacturers make jeans that I feel comfortable in.. Ralph Lauren's are great, but wear, tear, and rip easily. I usually end up getting Tommy jeans that area devoid of any major brand markings, etc so as not to advertise, however they usually end up being a little more baggy than I like.
Shoes and socks, I have my own style on... so I'll leave it at that..
I love classic, good looking mens fashion... The kind of outfits that you'd envision Steve McQueen in... or perhaps Pierce Brosnan... But find it difficult to find this look in my size, to fit my budget.
Most days, in the end, I feel like I look like John "Bluto" Blutarsky in Animal House...
