Designer suits come in many different shapes and sizes. They are created by a multitude of designers out of a wide array of materials. As a result, choosing a suit designer can be one of the most confusing decisions a person can make. I wrote this article to help shoppers get a better understanding of designer suits.



Suit brands explored in this article are Alfani, Allyn Saint George, Anderson Sheppard, Armani, and Arnold Brandt. I will discuss the style and price of each suit brand so that you will get a better idea of what each suit designer brings to the industry.

An Alfani suit is a bargain buy at somewhere between $100 and $300 dollars. You can find this suit in both two and three button models, usually with two vents. Check out Amazon or Ebay for the lowest online prices, or Macy's for a convenient brick and mortar pick up.

The Allyn Saint George suit is an American suit with the standard classic cuts you might find in an HSM or Brooks Brothers suit. However, this suit is made of lower priced yet durable material and can be found for less than $200 dollars for a brand new well made suit.

The Anderson Sheppard suit is another British classic of the Saville Row line. Their creations usually come in a more formal almost haughty look. This suit is great for formal events and boardroom meetings. Expect to pay over $1,000 for a new model.

An Armani suit is made in Italian cuts from some of the finest fabric mills in the entire world. This suit will usually run at prices nearing three thousand or even more depending on how rare the model and whether or not it is an OTR model.

Arnold Brandt suits are made in Canada from imported fabrics of high quality. Classic looks and styles are the norm for this designer. The retail price on a new model for 2008 is around eight hundred dollars.

I hope you enjoyed reading this article as much as I enjoyed writing it. Please make sure to try out as many brands as you can before making your final decision. Remember you will be the one that ultimately has to wear your new suit.
