The myth of the tailored suit. I have 3-4 custom suits and they are extremely well made and are from extremely good fabric (cashmere and cashmere wool blends). I think the least expensive was around 900.00. I was in SF and not planning on a formal dinner one night and something came up so I ran down to Banana Republic and bought an off the rack on sale for $300.00. I have had more compliments on that than any of the other suits..... Go figure. On another note tailored shirts are worth every penny. PP
