ALL males look sexy in a suit and tie! Wink

They sure do

maybe not a suit ..can't see trousers

That's from a 70's TV show. To me, for a man to look good - as in damn good - in a suit he has to be fitted for one. That may be a personal bias but rarely have I seen a guy "rock" a suit brought right off the rack.

Okay, maybe a guy who keeps in shape and owns a dark Armani.

One of the two.

you don't seem to have shopped for a suit lately marla..

Can I mention my last suit instead?
When I was about 25 I started getting my suits hand-made by a tailor at David Jones I think it was.
What a treat.
Choosing the material, going for fittings, feeling quite the young blade about town.
Even an evening suit I had made.

Then life took several different turns and I didn't wear suits any more for maybe 30 years.
But when I eventually needed one again - a jacket just wasn't enough - I had one made again.
Very hard to find a tailor when you're not in the city any more. But I finally tracked down a guy who'd done some alterations for me during the waxing and waning of my figure and who'd shut up shop and just worked from home.

I said to him "I need a suit to be buried in". He thought I was serious.
