Anyone have experience with trunk shows for shirts and suits?

I have the shoulder to waist ratio of a dorito (you can pick the orientation) and no off-the-rack or MTM brand fits me. Gonna try bespoke (the SEA tailors seem really great value).

I was pro SEA tailor for a while but have become increasingly impressed with the growing number of formal apparel shops for burly bois like myself (Tailored Athlete et al)

Any other shops you recommend?

I have the same issue—wide shoulders and very thin waist. But your build, OP, seems more muscular than mine. I’m 38 shoulder, 30 waist and it is hard to find. I find that Gucci and Prada work well for off the rack. My favorite more budget model is Versace Collection. But if you’re really one of those athletic guys—my brother is one—with very wide shoulders (he played college football) and a thin waist—I can think one has two options: totally custom, or get something that fits in the shoulders and get the rest totally recut.

I've been interviewing with some companies, and now I have to decide between JPMorgan Chase and Globant.

Globant is more innovative, and has remote work. I will enter to work with a Sillicon Valley startup based in San Francisco. The tech stack is React, Nextjs, AWS, and a serverless architecture.

JPM is semi remote, and less innovative. The tech stack Java, SpringBoot and AWS. But I'd do more migration tasks, like dockerize projects and pass them to kubernetes. What would you choose?
