Do you own a suit?

I was thinking about how bad Trump looks in his suits and it dawned on me that I am 56 years old and I have never owned a suit. I have a couple sports coats/blazers but never have I owned a suit. Am I an oddity or are there more of us than I think?

 

Fuckin' suits.

I had one, but it got old, so I got rid of it rather than risk being out of style. Down to sport coats now.

 

I own two suits but I rarely wear them. Weddings, funerals and the occasional dress up event.

When they are only worn a couple times a year they tend to shrink in the closet. Especially around the waist

 

I owned a suit. For college graduation, my grandmother took me out and bought me a very nice suit for job interviews and special occasions. Fit well, comfortable, nice material — I thought I looked pretty sharp in it.

I have no idea what happened to it. Delta Air Lines said it had no idea what happened to it, either.

 

I own a suit, the same one I used for my job interview. I recently replaced the pants and wore that and the jacket to a wedding.

 

Yes. Several.

Well, many.

Maybe 10 years ago, I got tired of trying to match pants and sports coats, so I started wearing suits. Much easier.

 

When I was working, I rocked the sports coat, wool slacks, dress shirt, funky tie and nice loafers. I retired in 2011 and no longer have to try to impress anybody; sandals and jeans for me now.

 

Used to have one suit ... a college graduation gift.

When we were packing up things to move about 10 years later, my wife noticed moths had chewed holes in the shoulders of the jacket. That shows how many times I wore it.

I still have two sportcoats for the occasional wedding or funeral.

 

I own three. I bought one out of college for job interviews, one a few years later because everyone I knew was getting married and another one last year because as someone said, too many damn funerals.
I still own my post-college suit as motivation that it will again fit.

 

I have a classic navy skirt suit I haven't worn in years, which was way too big when I bought it (but on great sale!) That replaced a burgundy skirt suit which was very well worn over many years. I prefer to wear a red blazer, white blouse and boring black skirt to job interviews, since I'm not exactly corporate. Thankfully, I don't need a suit for weddings... but I do own many colorful dresses, plus a couple of (sigh) funeral-appropriate black ones.
