This is very helpful. I think good points were raised about the pants and knees. If I go up a size, I think they will be too big - already big in the waist, but maybe longer would help with the knee problem. It can’t hurt to try, but I might be happier with a higher rise, anyway.</p> <p>I love that Reiss suit, Angie! I’ve actually had it in my Nordstrom shopping cart for awhile - it would be a big splurge, and I am hoping it might get marked down. Nordstrom only has the slim version of the Hartley pants, though.<br /> I spend most days in jeans and a blazer, but I do want to find a good suit. It isn’t urgent, so maybe I should find one(s) I really love.<br /> I could keep the BR jacket to add to my rotation of blazers...hmm. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/thoughts-on-this-br-suit#post-2078774 Wed, 20 Nov 2019 16:55:58 +0000 slim cat 2078774@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Agree with everyone on pants - fit feels a bit off - just a smidge ( wonder if pants will stretch with time and wear ). I think it all looks on the verge of too traditional together - maybe because you are not wearing you fab red boots or high tops/sneakers - I love when you mix your suiting pieces. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/thoughts-on-this-br-suit#post-2078767 Wed, 20 Nov 2019 16:10:50 +0000 kellygirl 2078767@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Jacket looks classic and like you could dress it up and down. The pant fit at the knee gives me pause though.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/thoughts-on-this-br-suit#post-2078766 Wed, 20 Nov 2019 16:10:21 +0000 Anonymous 2078766@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It looks like a good , basic, professional suit to have in your closet if you need one. Agree with Angie re pant sizing.....</p> <p>And wow, I love what I see from Reiss, but the prices .....&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/thoughts-on-this-br-suit#post-2078755 Wed, 20 Nov 2019 15:28:48 +0000 Angie 2078755@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Jacket is GREAT!&nbsp;</p> <p>Can you get the pants in a LONG? Also, they look a little tight from the knee down. Go up a size?&nbsp;</p> <p>I know this Reiss suit is NOT a steal, but it is HEAVENLY LUXE AND IMPECCABLE, and might be worth a try too:&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/thoughts-on-this-br-suit#post-2078748 Wed, 20 Nov 2019 14:55:43 +0000 Helena 2078748@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think this looks fabulous - maybe more classic than fashion forward, but certainly not dated or old-fashioned. I'd say "timeless". </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/thoughts-on-this-br-suit#post-2078747 Wed, 20 Nov 2019 14:55:32 +0000 RobinF 2078747@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love the jacket! Looks like a great fit and the lining is nice. Maybe not trendy but a good classic blazer. I'm not as sure about the pants, they seem kind of in between narrow and wide. But I am a holdout and still like narrow pants so take it with a grain of salt. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/thoughts-on-this-br-suit#post-2078744 Wed, 20 Nov 2019 14:46:58 +0000 Preppy Pear 2078744@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hi all, </p> <p>I was wondering if anyone has thoughts on this fit and cut of this suit? It’s the Long and Lean Blazer + Ryan pants, both in regular lengths.</p> <p>Pros: it was a steal, I like the color - a lighter navy, I like that I can turn back the cuffs and show the striped lining.</p> <p>Cons: pants are not lined, wouldn’t mind a higher rise on the pants, not sure about the length of the jacket. Maybe not as fashion forward as I would wish? </p> <p>Thanks for any feedback! </p>
