Stylish friends: I'm in need of a Men's Suit update. Where's the best place to go for a great, slim-fit, sub-$500, wool, tailored/tailor-able suit that makes me look...

Tri Rags on Chapel. They have the European cut as does J Crew. Good luck!

Maybe Indochino.com ? Some are around $500 and up.

Blank Label

I'm serious about this. If you can, check out the New Canaan Thrift Shop. The tony patrons donate beautiful suits perhaps worn once or twice. Slim sizes are more abundant than larger sizes. The best shopping is just after Christmas when people donate things they received as gifts and have never worn--?the tags are still on the clothes, including Brooks Brothers.

Express For Men!!!! They specialize in the slim and sexy fit.
Does anyone have a good recommendation for either a place to buy a suit and/or a good tailor?

Although I imagine there is something closer, Ferrucci in New Haven custom made my wedding suit. It is simply gorgeous. https://www.ferrucciltd.com/ While you're there pop down the street to Delmonico and get a hat! http://www.delmonicohatter.com/
