I don't think that's a bad suit, it doesn't look that great on the model, but the color is dark enough that it's fine. Any lighter, and I would have to give the suit a thumbs down though.

Also this might be besides the point, but I don't understand how bankers who are starting out with six figure salaries have to resort to "measure yourself and hope you're lucky" suit shops. I'm currently interning at a top three BB (JPM, MS, GS) in IB and I just dropped $1400 on a dark navy suit? (Also, before you guys call me out, my suit before that was from Goodwill) I thought that's what the starting bonus was for these days.....

New money? Straight up bizarre that you wouldn't wait for a decent sale and buy 3 suits of comparable quality for the same amount.
