Ballin' suits from Hugo Boss, Tom Ford, Versace etc..
Not necessarily the label/brand, but the fit they usually have, do people other than celebrities/fashonistas wear them? They look good... but are they worn around the office and around town?
Every man I see wearing a suit looks like ****. I doesn't fit well, looks bland, no shape etc.. I'm sure this is because most people are fat and will look bad in any cut. Is it common? Do those you wear nice fitting, BALLIN looking suits look like they are trying too hard? is it frowned upon?
Examples:
Ballin fit:
Bland, normal fit:

No, most people don't have to wear suits to the office. Usually dress pants, and a nice long sleeve, but the coat is optional.
That being said you can never go wrong with a nice suit. Make sure to get everything tailored to you though.

Hugo Boss suits are glued together, which they called "fused."
People who know their suits dont buy Hugo Boss. Fused suits dont move with your body as well as fully cavassed suits do. The cheaply made fused suits move like a piece of armor over your torso.
They are okay if you buy them on sale for like $200, just for the cut. Anymore and you are ripped off.

Honestly it's all about how it's tailored. You could even buy a cheapish suit, get the bish tailored (no just having them hem the length but a real tailor job) and look like a million bucks.

Just leave now, I hear a bucket of chicken calling your name. You're just mad you can't fit into any of the mention suits.

American clothes are made for people who are obese, as most Americans are, so they produce clothes that are straight and boxy so that many large sized individuals can fit into them and but them off the shelf. The suits you posted are based on European versions, where they are more fitted to people with normal to small waist size. You need to buy off the shelf as close as you can and take to a seamstress or tailor to have it adjusted to your liking.

The name doesn't help that much.
Tailoring is the key to a ballin LOOKING suit.

Tom Ford makes a decent fully canvassed suit, but you'll find that anything he makes has a ridiculous unwarranted markup. Those interested in a decent looking, fitting, and quality suit should look into the following:
Isaia
Brioni
Kiton
Oxxford,
Ralph Lauren Purple Label and Black Label
Zegna mainline
Borelli
You will find these suits although to be found at a ridiculous retail often find themselves at the Neiman Marcus outlets and Century 21 at very, very deep discounts.

used to sell menswear at Neiman Marcus, and notice when clothes fit well or not. Ill take fit over brand anyday. OP with your height and weight, youd probably be able to fit into most designer labels, but most guys can't. I find with the nicer labels, Hugo Boss seems to fit the best, but...each suit costs an extra $50-60 on alterations...shirts are $30...it all adds up. Everything I buy has to be altered, I even get the bottoms of some t shirts hemmed cause I can't stand wearing super baggy stuff. My suits fit with a taper, but I see plenty of guys with more expensive suits than me, and yea it looks like crap cause it doesn't fit. Brand isn't everyhting.
