Mario’s - The Suit

the value of a suit

made-to-measure

The value of a suit depends on what you want the suit to do for you. Do you intend to wear it for the season or for the next two years? Do you plan to wear it once a month, once a week, once a year? Is it for work or for play? The answers to these questions will help determine the value of any suit. There are suits that have never been touched by a sewing machine – every stitch is made by hand. This is another kind of value. Perhaps the most important thing is that a suit should know you. This has as much to do with a suit’s personality and function as it does style and fit. And remember: a suit can always be altered to fit you a little better.

When it comes to suits, black is a versatile shade. It's sharp and semi-formal, great for interviews and work. Navy is a bit more relaxed and can be broken up to pair with jeans and chinos. Stripes are also business-appropriate: stylish but classic, and impeccable with a touch of grey.

Ten years ago, the three-button suit came into style as an alternative to the conventional two-button suit. Now it has become the norm, so the two-button has been updated. The expression is a bit higher, more contemporary, with a deeper gorge that flatters most body types.

With a Twist:

Take advantage of sartorial refinements and great accessories like pocket squares to make it your own.

The ultimate luxury, where every exquisite detail is up to you. Fall in love with an exclusive fabric, take your pick of pockets, and choose from colored melton, contrasting linings, and surgeon's sleeves. One of the great things about men's fashion is that you participate in the design process, and by doing so you're part of a rich tradition of artisans that dates back hundreds of years. There is an inherent luxury in knowing your suit is the only one of its kind because it was made especially for you.

With a Twist:

Have fun and create your own style. Choose unexpected turns of color, pattern and other details. And don't stop with the suit: with made-to-measure shirts, trousers and shoes, you can build a wardrobe that is totally you.
