I'm fat. I've been working on losing weight and am down 30 pounds in the last 2 months. I am graduating college in December and need a suit for interviewing. I went to Macy's and the suit jackets that fit in the stomach were way too big in the shoulders. Anyone have any advice for places to get suits for fat dudes? My budget is around $500.

I'm 6'0", 260. I've always heard big and tall stores were fucking terrible.

Take 6 months off after school, and *REALLY* work on it.
Investing $500 in a suit that'll only fit you at your worst is a stupid investment.

Chalk the lost productivity and cash up to your poor life choices, and fix it before you waste more money on it.

I know it may be stupid and I might not be able to wear the suit in 6 months, but I don't want to look like David Byrne while interviewing. I'd rather just spend the money now and spend it later too if it means I won't look like garbage.

menswearhouse.com. Scope it online, but MAKE SURE you actually go into one of their stores and get measured for a suite, and have it tailored for fit by them. I spent $380 on coat/pants combo and it worked out well.

Then go to a goodwill and find a suit that fits in the shoulders and dont button it. Buttoning a suit isnt a requirement, but it will look better if it fits in the shoulders at least. Save your money now
