Well unless you grew out of it? ordered it in an obnoxious loud colour-way?, or requested a trendy fit balloon/ultra-euro?

A proper bespoke suit, should never go out of style. I have two from Umberto's, and adore them.

Peter said it best. Dress like our grandfathers.

I don't know how your grandfather dressed but judging by what I inherited, my grandfather's 1960s, English-made suits are even more trendy/tight-fitting than H&M's! They were actually ultra-euro.

I'm a healthy 160 lbs but wear the 2nd smallest size at H&M/Zara (36). I don't wear my cashmere suits unless to a rare formal event because I'm paranoid about getting them dirty/damaged.
