I buy all my suits at moores. I know hot-shots will tell you that that's not the right place to buy a suit, but if you're going to buy off the rack, moores is usually your best bet.

The most important part of buying a suit is the fit. If you dont buy suits often, let the sales guys help you. Tell them how you want the suit to lie, and then listen to them. You'll never get the exact same fit as a custom made suit, however, if you buy a suit that is the right size, and have it correctly tailored to your particular build, it lie correctly and you will still look sharp.

Moores has lots of nice midrange suits, most of mine are ralph lauren, CK, or oscar de la renta, and all of them have been 500$ or less.

Also, if you dont know anything about fashion, let the sales guys help you pick a shirt/tie/shoes to go with your outfit. Even a 2000$ suit wont look good if you're wearing dull shoes, a yellow shirt and a green tie.

thanks for the help, u guys taught me a lot about suits. I ended up trying on nice suits from moores and tip top, figured out wat looked good and my size.
Went to Mexx, they DID have GREAT suits and they looked sweet and only for 199, went to H and M to just look and ended up buying a suit from there, looked and fitted exactly like the MExx suits, 135 for the pants and jacket taxes in! im happy, so far the best looking suit i have ever owned and for the cheapest too....

thanks again for the help, this suit will get my some 'tang at this wedding
