Black Dior Homme Suit

[Agent Orange]

how much do these retail for? i can grab one that somebody picked up on sale for his son but didnt fit for 400€ (583$). is ist worth it? measurements and posts i found suggest these run a little bit small, so a 46 would work if i normally wear 44?

damn i really dont like buying a suit before trying it on but i heard these are $1,900-2,200 retail and 1300$ on saleand i need a black suit.

[metaabuse]

$583 for a plain black Dior Homme suit is a steal at any rate

If it doesn't fit you I'm sure there's someone small enough on here that would love to buy it

[Guest supernoob]

the price is good but black suit...ehh.. if thats ur steelo then go for it def. about the sizin, i dunno. havent tried on one yet

[chromesquared]

Kop like ROBO.

If it dont fit u can def flip it on the Bay.

if you are 44, I'm guessing it is an american 44 - is the suit a European or American 46?

[the breaks]

Does Dior even make suits up to american 46? That would be a 56 which is pretty big...

[SENDkylHISPASSWORD]

What I'm thinking is this guy is a EU 54 trying to fit into a EU 46

[Fuuma]

He's from somewhere in Europe and an euro 44 thinking of getting a DH euro 46. Who uses american sizing for suits anyways!!??

To answer the OP: depending on the season and cut the suit might be too big on you but I'd get it anyways and flip it on ebay if it doesn't work out; just sell it for around 700euros and keep the change. Make sure the suit is not already adjusted (sleeves and pants shortened) and that it is a standard model (say 100% wool, 1-3 buttons, thin lapels, single breasted).

Buy it...or let me buy it.

Wow - euro 44 is tiny!

[Guest supernoob]

^^^this is superfuutre

[Agent Orange]

im a eu44, american sizing, i wasnt even aware there was such a thing.

i think im gonna go for it then. its weird, the pant measurements are perfect for me, but the jacket seems kind of small.

oh and the suit seems like a standard model - at least i hope so, im not really a dh expert. jacket is single breasted, the fabric is not 100% wool though, its 54% wool and 46% nylon.

is there any chance to find out which suit it could be, say, which collection etc? should be the last one but im not totally sure.

thx for all the help so far

[ChadM]

There should be a numeric code on the tag such as 4EH1073020

[codymk127]

get it for sure for that price. idk if it will fit though because im a 44 in dior also and a 46 doesnt fit right. but even so...you'll make a profit from it if it doesnt fit.

[Thorns]

American sizing is ridiculous. Basically the smallest size we make is a 36 (occasionally one can find a 34, but its really unusual) which is roughly equal to an EU 46, but american OTR suits are cut like stiff boxes, so even if its close to fitting you in the shoulders inevitably there will be way too much fabric in the chest and the arm holes will be low and loose.

Modern american OTR suits are the bane of my existence.

[Agent Orange]

i think the guy doesnt have the tag anymore. its weird, the jackets width measurements seem freakishly small, like 37cm laid flat.

and im a bit surprised that its not 100% wool, because all the dh suits i found (eg on yoox) are 100% wool. still, the guy seems totally legit.

[metaabuse]

Unless he cut the tags out of the jacket, they should still be in there.

It's a shiny silvery tag that feels kind of soft.

[julian_d_avocado]

I have a black Dior Homme suit, and i can honestly tell you that the jacket feels much slimmer than the pants. I am a size EU40 (which is tiny), and although the pants fit me just perfect (even somewhat roomy), if i were to grow anymore the jacket would become too small for my frame.

I though about getting a larger jacket (EU42), to be able to wear it longer. But in the end, i decided to keep it, as the proportions work perfectly when you put the suit on.

[Agent Orange]

why? 10char

[josephr]

why? 10char

if you have the choice of buying a DH suit for 600 bucks and looking ridiculous or saving 600 bucks and not looking ridiculous i think you should save your money. maybe buy it to resell. kind of a budget look in my opinion.

[Agent Orange]

sorry, i really dont know much about suits. but whats the difference from this one to others, except that its a one button model???

[Agent Orange]

nobody knows this one button suit model? collection is F/W 05/06 everybody just looks the same

[lacquered]

Im selling one in the supermarket, if anyones is interested:)

[Vitamian]

What's wrong with a one-button?

One-buttoned suits are very classic; just look at H.Huntsman of London.

[lacquered]

yes, i totally agree with vitamian on this one. Look at Hedi, he's always wearing a one button jacket.

[josephr]

the stance of the button on this jacket is quite high, combined with the huge lapels and my aesthetic sensibility is offended. i don't like those high lonely buttons at kilgour either.

i've only seen hedi wear one button jackets with a much deeper gorge.

[macuser3of5]

That's a very high gorge, IMO. Nothing wrong with 1 buttons suits, but that one seems odd... Get a mid-gray suit anyway, much more pimp than black.
