Grad suit shopping..
 
My grad photos are coming up soon and i need a suit. Apparently calvin klein has some nice slim ones.. Im looking for a light grey suit similar to Kanye West's 808's & Heartbreak album cover or pee wee hermans suit... Anyone have recommendations for places to buy suits? Thx in advance! :D

I wouldn't spend too much on a suit for grad, i rented one from moores, and it fit me really well! It was quite cheap as well.

XplicitLuder 09-18-2011 07:08 PM

considering its just grad pic for the yearbook i take it..why does it need to be brand new ? :suspicious: just wear ur regular dress shirt + tie + dress pants n shoes. Nothing has to be fancy since they'll literally see you in a gown lol unless you plan to use the same for prom/dry grad lol and yes i got my tux at moores rented for about 150$ , loved it

Sorry i didnt mean just grad photos i ment like anything suit at graduation related stuff. And i totally forgot about moores lol im definitely gonna check it out soon! Thx guys.

its better to get a low-mid end suit that is tailored and fits properly, than to get a super expensive suit that is off the rack and isn't tailored to your body....

if it is just for pictures i wouldn't worry about it that much. Just rent one if you really want a suit for photos.

if you really want to buy a suit
moores is having their b1g1 sale starting on the 22nd

le chateau has nice suits. and i'm selling a $270 store credit if you're interested.

If you buy, you'll only wear it a few times during the grad events and a year down the road, you'll never wear it again. Chances are it won't fit you after a year and you'll have to buy another one anyways. When you're established after school and start a career, that's when you start looking for a permanent suit since you'll be wearing it much more often and your change in body shape will be more or less set.

do you know if moores has slim fit suits/dress shirts? I am not talking about the "slim fit" that is still baggy but has a modern cut body, but something that actually has slimmer sleeves, and tighter shoulders. ps. not skinny fit though. basically fits that mexx, hm, le chateau have.

Shugoy 09-19-2011 09:07 AM

ck outlets in states are dirt cheap for suits.

Harry Rosen

Lifetime tailoring free

Alpha Kappa 09-20-2011 08:58 AM

^ Harry Rosen ? Are you kidding me? It's highschool grad, not a business manager opportunity

buddha1 09-21-2011 04:20 PM

LOL harry rosen..
even if i could get one there i wouldnt. imo, their customer service is terrible, if i aint wearin a 500 dollar tshirt or somethin they'll just ignore you and give you a "what are you doing here" look... :fuckthatshit:

^ maybe just for you that get bad service, harry rosen employees are always attentive and work well, but yeah harry rosen for a grad suit.. yeah no, thats spending racks on racks for something you wear 3 times only haha

Phozy 09-21-2011 06:04 PM

Harry Rosen are professional : Even if you aint rolling in with a thousand dollar outfit, they respect the fact that your just dreaming for the clothes, just like most are.

As for suits, as mentioned above, get a regular suit, not too pricy, but if it is, make it tailored, than something off the rack that doesn't fit/make you look good. You'll only wear it so many times...Shirt + pants + vest ties and shoes are good enough, if you ask me.

strykn 09-21-2011 06:26 PM

got my grad suit from harry rosen, boss suit still ball out in it , lifetime tailoring :fuckyea:

unit 09-21-2011 07:15 PM

thing about buying a nice suit when you're 17 is you're friends arent getting married anytime soon and 90% of the time you put a suit on (unless you have to for work), its for a wedding.

dachinesedude 09-21-2011 08:11 PM

I made the mistake of buying my grad suit, never wore it after graduation

So i say rent, just rent diff ones for diff grad occasions

Not really racist! 09-21-2011 08:21 PM

well assuming you go to grad..
u gotta wear ur suit three times total then

artona, single + group, then prom, maybe ur school has a formal dance too? u gotta answer these urself...

CorneringArtist 09-21-2011 08:38 PM

I bought my suit from K&G Superstore in the States. Yeah it's a lower-quality suit, but I had to go down to find a suit that fit a bigger guy, and that didn't break the bank. Spent I think 200-250 on it, including dress shirt and shoes. I had the pants hemmed in-house as well on the same day.

It's true that you don't wear the grad suit more than a few times, but I still fit in mine, even though I haven't been to a formal event in a while.

t8v6 09-23-2011 11:40 PM

yea go to moores and rent a suit. nobody will care what brand you're wearing as long as it looks nice. I guarantee you'll need to buy a new one in a year or two if you get a job or get into college/university. Just because you're graduating doesn't mean you've stopped growing.
