SA 2025, Where to get suit from?

Pretty much title, incoming summer analyst, don't have a proper suit, where would you guys recommend getting one from and what color (preferable worn with black shoes). Would prefer on the frugal side and for suit to last at least during my analyst years.

Thanks!

Where are you based and where are you from?

Basic suits cost like $800 in the US and 1500+ if you want proper tailored suits. So I went back home (tiny country in Asia) and got like 5 crisp custom-tailored suits from a well-known local tailor at like $300 a piece before starting my MFin. Got many compliments during recruiting events. And got another 5-6 right after I graduated for the analyst years.

For finance, stick to shades of grey/charcoal and navy. Black shoes are fine with these as long as you match it with a black belt.

Edit: Frustrated kid who could not get in and MS'ed me, Asia isn't DEI dumbass.

 

US, no one wears suits at my office everyday, I just need it for day 1 of internship cause that's just what happens and the occasional client meeting. 

Would ideally want to be in the $100 range lol.
