Where to get a small suit?
Grads coming up and I'm 5'3 with a skinny build so its hard for me to find a graduation suit. Does anyone know where I can find a suit that has a tight fit on both arms and waist in metro town or richmond that fits me? If anyone does I'd appreciate it. Thank you.

You're going to be hard pressed to find an off-the-shelf suit that will fit you right. You're better off getting a custom suit made - if you have time - places like Indochino has half-decent prices. They're actually in town next weekend with a tailor who will do your measurements - so you don't have to worry about measuring yourself and screwing up.

Kidding Kidding :P

Roden Gray << on Water St. I know its not metro or richmond like you asked but i did a quick google search and there was an article in the Sun (from '08) where the author gives styling tips for shorter guys when it comes to suits and offers up a local store where said men can shop

Sartorial survival tips for short men


I imagine that you could go into any dedicated suiting shop and get hooked up though like tip-top or dunns



and also from that article a link to a suit tailor for men under 5'8" http://www.jimmyaus.com/jimmyaus/ << located in the states but you can order online; its an option
