Is it bad to have the exact same suit in two different colours?

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?

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.

 

Very normal and common for people to wear 

I have 7 of the same t shirt in different colors, and 2 in the same 

 

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.
