Look at that thread. Anyway, I don't believe in Brooks Brothers. Last week I needed a travel suit for a meeting and the dry cleaners temporarily replaced my only travel suit. I didn't want to wear a normal suit and show up wrinkled so I was forced into going to Brooks Brothers and buying something that could be tailored the same day. Is it an OK suit? Yes. Is it work 700? No. Do I feel ripped off? Yes.
Look into the brands Kiton, Brioni and whatnot. In suits, labels count a lot because Kiton does not make a crap suit. However labels sometimes don't matter if it's tailor made. I am trying to arrange a trip to Asia so I can pick the fabric and have it custom cut for me for a decent price. If you're in NY, they actually often fly into town, take your measurements, and mail it to you as well. The other thing you might want to try out if you're younger or on a budget is to go to a Saks or a Barneys outlet store. I hear there are great deals there but I wouldn't know because I haven't seen any in Chicago.
Top this all off with a Kiton, Charvet, or Ascot Chang shirt and a 7-fold Kiton tie and you'll look like you could bang a girl at any income level. If you want to be flashy, wear a hermes tie.
