Mailbag: Hugo Boss Suits vis-a-vis The Banana

Justin F. asks: "How do Hugo Boss suits fit compared to Banana Republic's?"
Answer: As you probably noticed, we love Hugo Boss like a fat kid loves cake. One of the big reasons is that their suits (like the "Rossellini" 3-button shown here) almost perfectly execute the modern ideal: very fitted, slim without being uncomfortable, flattering, and of course extremely well made. BR's are a more or less contemporary cut but not as trim and not as well rendered... and as previously mentioned, their quality will be hit or miss.
