You could consider a Kiton suit, 7-fold Tie (or Hermes?)and or wallet. BRioni, PRada, RL Purple Label? (note, handmade suits take a while to produce so be aware of your timing).

Pick up a pair or two of Allen-Edmonds shoes.

For other advice you could check the www.askandyaboutclothes.com forums.

Does your job require you to dress up frequently?

Is the event white tie, black tie, casual etc? If it is an outdoor summer event you may have to pick up a light coloured linen suit, but that would not provide a lot of alternative uses for the outfit.

I frequently deal with people in the 8 and 9 figure range, but most of them don't dress that flashy. What line of work is the individual in?

I would caution against spending too much on any one item (for fear I would be afraid to wear it again), but try and spend a lot on accessories that could be used to enhance other outfits that I would regularily wear.

How about the heart of a whooping crane? Nothing says "bling" like the heart of a whooping crane.

You know what though, if I was some rich talented singer/actor/entertainer I wouldn't expect people to be dressed as richly as me. That's just me.

You need to speak to my friend Cosmo, I called him and he said that he will rent you this little number for an even $15,000.



If you showup in this you will seal the deal no questions asked.

Just head down to Via Condotti. From the base of the spanish steps to Via del Corso. You'll find something nice there.

Fly over to Ottawa and raid Ray Emery's closet. He dresses well.

There's also a few good places down the Champs Elysee if I recall.

You don't want to be too conspicuous so go with something conservative:
