I probably should've consulted you guys on here before making these purchases but here goes..
I'm a Sophomore and have an internship/study abroad program where I'm working for a bank in Prague this summer and need a suit. After I get back from Prague I'll be working for MSSB in a city of about 400k (so not a huge office but definitely the biggest wealth management group within 100 miles). I assume I will also need a suit for my MSSB internship.
I went to Jos a Bank today and did the buy 1 get the second for 99 get the third one free thing - I got 3 suits all of which were $895 retail value. They're all 2 piece 2 button signature suits. One is navy and the other two grey. I also got mahogany tassle shoes, belt, socks, white shirt, conservative ties, etc.
My only concern is that while these may be appropriate for me now they won't be appropriate for my first few years on Wall Street, can someone tell me if I did this right??
**EDIT** I should mention the two that are grey are dark grey and not the same color exactly but similar
You did fine. I don't see any problem. How dark are the greys? Is one close to Charcoal?
OH MY GOD, IT'S THE END OF THE WORLD!!!!
One of them is charcoal
I was just concerned because I wasn't sure if Jos A Bank is considered a nice enough suit or if they're popular on Wall Street. Also I didn't know if the style was appropriate but the man who was helping me told me that he's had Wall Street guys buy the same suit.
You're gonna get fired for sure.
Just bring the suits to a tailor and have them altered to fit you well. A good tailor can make a suit of any quality look nice.
