Is this accurate?

No, that's horrible advice. It should MTM at lower salaries if you need to wear a suit to work and bespoke if you feel like dropping €3k+ for a suit.

If you dont want to spend a fortune an a suit you go to Jos Bank and then get it tailored.
If you have money but you want a designer suit you go to armani
if you have money and you want a nice suit you go to a tailor and have one made.

I make 16.5k a month and I don’t own a suit

Here's the real deal:
>sub 100k/yr: rent a suit for the one time a year you need one, if you somehow got a min wage job that requires a suit you tell your employer they can either give you a stipend for a suit or gargle your balls, if they give you a stipend see next point
>100k+: try to thrift a zegna suit or something, take it to dry clean then have it altered at a tailor, alternatively for something easier go to suitsupply and get a suit from them and have them alter it to fit you
>money flex: bespoke, if you have the money for it you already know where, no don't go get a suit from whatever southeast asian shithole you read about
Anything else is for suit snobs, if you're one of them you can form your own opinions.

>Beyond Money: H&M
and the circle is complete.

my real advice is to amortize the cost based on how much you're really going to wear it. if you're wearing it once a week then you can get whatever you want rtw, within reason. anything past zegna has zero return, you won't notice the difference. kiton is literally the same as isaia and costs much more just because of the name. all these rtw suits can be found in large cities. suits will last 10+ years, even if worn weekly. you're far more likely to get tired of the style before it gets worn out.

bespoke is a meme, it's probably even a meme even if you live in literally london and naples. those tailors don't care about your one off order, they'll cut whatever they want and tell you to go away. unless you know them and they know you're ordering 5-10 suits a year, they don't want you there. all those car crash suits you see on SF and elsewhere are from these one order small timers.

>>18771185
don't get suit-slop-ply, you're better off getting one zegna suit than three slop of suits.

>>18771098
Absolute retardation.

>>18771098
i really don't get the point of buying designer suits. you get much better results getting one Made-to-Measure or bespoke, not only from a price point, but you have the possibility to select details and fabrics.

Why would you buy insane overpriced brand that was just created in 21st century
>>
>>18771098
This lil nigga is probably 16 yo and pretends to know classic brands whose history and development are rooted in the previous century
>>
>>18771601
he's white tho
>>
>>18771098
Doesn't zegna make suits for half of those brands?
>>
>>18771098
Definitely varies by country, but if you're in the UK/Europe, you'd probably be expected to just get a tailor at Saville Row to sort you out after a certain level of income

Lmao like the other anon said, this kid is like 16. Almost certainly he's wearing thrift clothes and sat in the middle of a random menswear store to make this video.

While it's true that someone poor should be a cheap suit, but that's only because that's all they can afford.
It's also true that someone rich can afford a more expensive suit, but that's just the options available to them.
The truth is, after like 100k a year, any suit becomes affordable and in general clothing ceases to be a status symbol.

In fact, most rich people don't wear anything fancy at all, and I'm not talking le stealth wealth old money, I mean they just wear random shit.
They're out there wearing polyester tshirts and cargo shorts with no sense of fashion whatsoever because fashion doesn't mean anything to them.
And here's the real kicker. Whenever you do see some rich celebrity wearing some crazy high end fashion. It's a product placement. They didn't buy those clothes, infact it's the total opposite, they themselves were paid to wear them.
