Hi all, apologies if this is a dumb question - I have quite a nice dark grey suit from Suit Supply that I have been wearing on Spring Weeks / internships and such. I like how it fits me. Is it bad to just get the exact same suit but in navy ahead of my SA stint? Or should I switch it up?

Yeah its fine. What matters is that it fits you well and the quality (and suitsupply is decent)
Similar to you, I wore 2 exact suitsuppy suits (one navy and one gray) during my SA stint and never received any negative comments
Totally normal. If it fits you why change it
What do you mean same suit different color?
A different color suit is a different suit. How can you have different designs and still keep professional?
I have a couple sets of 5-7 suits, each set cut for my exact slim-fit measurement at the time but in diff colors. Been wearing them alternatively. I don’t really understand the question.
I did this for my SA last year lol. Only had two almost identical suits, one navy one charcoal. Didn't cause any problems. This was on the trading floor though so people dress more casual at times.
Students on this forum vastly overestimate how much anyone FT cares about them or what they're wearing.
You could wear the same suit, same colour, same shirt, same shoes, same underwear all week and I promise you very few people, if any, would notice.
No issues at all
Made the mistake of doing that once. Thankfully I was just an intern so I was let off easy - otherwise I would have run the risk of being excluded from polite society. Could have never gone to the opera again.
Lol not an issue man, dw
Don’t see the problem here - wear what looks good on you
Very normal and common for people to wear
I have 7 of the same t shirt in different colors, and 2 in the same
No one gives a fck bro. Seniors might not even know ur name by the end of ur internship let alone what suits u wear.
I literally could not tell you what either the AN2 who sits next to me or the AN1 who sits behind me was wearing today if you help a gun to my head and told me my life depended on it. Not exaggerating. I have enough work and family and other stuff going on. Just do the job to a high standard within the deadlines, and be a great professional.
Wore one suit (albeit never wore the jacket and rotated coloured shirts) my whole EB SA stint last summer and got a return. Nobody cares as long as you’re presentable.
