Looks a lighter than "standard" navy but still in the acceptable range. Almost looks slate but hard to tell based on the picture.
I'd second the above but as a first suit, I'd go for something darker, just to be safe
I find these types of blue to be fairly trendy and not something you can wear regularly. I know juniors who wear this kind of suit i personally think it looks off
just get a dark navy or charcoal grey for your first suit and get this as a second one
Yes.
Black and blue are always primaries but I always end up liking the way grey looks best.
For some reason I’ve always had the understanding that the more senior you are the darker your suit (for blue suits specifically) so an analyst would always have on a lighter shade suit then vp or md especially if meeting with clients. Has anyone else heard of this or did I dream it?
