In truth, I am confronting a related problem. I very rarely wear suits -- only for going to court, or for a mediation before a retired judge. Even in the latter circumstance, I am starting not to wear a suit. I haven't worn a suit to meet with a client in roughly three years (and I was somewhat oddly overdressed in that instance).
So. Next year (I hope), I expect to have a very long trial. Giving me a good excuse to go buy some nice suits. But, I am wondering if I should avoid the high-end racks that I went to, say, last time I bought sport coats (which is what I wear most days).
It may be a jury trial, but more likely it will be before a judge. But a judge in a butthole urban area. Wearing Canali or Zegna could make me look smarmy. But goooooood.
Argh. What to do? Suits are a tool of the trade -- so shouldn't I get the tool that works best?
