13 Vintage Suits That Would Make The Peaky Blinders Jealous

There is nothing quite like a suit. Yes, we hipsters do like to go on about the joys of simple and laid-back style, but even we can admit that the suit is a million times more charming than a flannel. 

There are many occasions where you might find yourself needing a good old-fashioned suit. Even if you don’t have to wear a suit to the office, you’ll still need one for the occasional job interview, wedding, funeral, or fancy dinner, so it’s a good idea to get a suit that is versatile enough to move between dress codes without looking out of place.

Unfortunately, this does mean that you might have to pick a suit that isn’t as unique as you’d like it to be - but that doesn’t mean it has to be boring.

Before you go any further, remember this: even the best suit can be ruined by bad tailoring. Find your exact measurements and ensure that whatever suit you buy will fit you or buy a suit in your general size and then get it tailored to fit you better. A well-fitting cheap suit will always look a million times better than an ill-fitting expensive one. Now it’s time to suit up!
