How do you actually approach a store when you want to buy a suit? Do you decide what color, style, design etc you want, and ask a clerk to make suggestions? Or do you take a picture in of something similar to what you'd like and go from there? Does finding a proper suit require hours of searching or am I overthinking things? I'm trying to find a solid new suit for a decent price, but it's a little overwhelming to look through a rack with like 1000 black suits. I'm also having a hard time finding a happy medium between the less-reliable $200 Macy's bargain suits and the $2000 suits woven from fancy Italian ballsacks or whatever.
