Trash. They are cheap for a reason. Indochino/black lapel are better MTM suits, but still low quality material. Suit supply MTM or a boutique MTM store are probably the best bet in the quality to price ratio range

I was on a grooms train last year and had to buy one. Though initially skeptical of quality given the $200 price tag, it came out good ultimately. You need to be sure to send in the right measurements and immediately try for fitting as soon as you receive it. You would usually have to stitch the pants length seam. Unlike rentals, you get to keep it. I have worn it a few more times on separate occasions. No regrets!

Might be a case of YMMV.

I have two pairs of slacks and I love to them

Slacks yes... have a pair I like. Was wondering about people's experience with suit fit/returns if needed

For the married and/engaged ladies, did you have any pre-wedding jitters? I recently got engaged (yay!) and I have felt for a very long time that my partner truly is my soulmate. I don’t have any reservations or hang ups about marrying him, but the sole idea of a lifetime physically makes me anxious. I feel guilty having these feelings when I couldn’t be more certain about the decision to marry him. Can anyone else relate?

Hello all I received an offer from EY GDS and the date of joining was a concern so I asked for a postpone not much just by a week.( Joining is in May)
It's been almost 1 week now and I haven't heard back from the HR I called and was informed the details are shared with other team and they are working on it.
Is it normal ? Does it take really this long for a new start date?
I resigned here and a bit worried about this whole thing .

Has anyone recently made the switch to in house and now feel unorganized and less productive than when billing hours?
