There should be some useful stuff in #fashion-guides I'm not 100 percent sure how dated the guides are though

You’re not going to get a real answer with this broad and vague of a question

Yeah, go read some guides and ask a more specific question. We have some very knowledgeable people here, but you haven't given us much to go on.

A suit, lounge suit, or business suit is a set of clothes comprising a suit jacket and trousers of identical textiles generally worn with a collared dress shirt, necktie, and dress shoes.

This question is too vague to answer but the most important things if you need to get a suit and you don't know anything are 1) ask MFA before you buy anything and 2) take fit check pictures facing forward toward your camera/phone with your arms resting naturally by your sides now in sticker form!

I’m sorry for the vague question. I work for a small law firm, as legal assistant. They told me to dress better and wear suits. I’m completely beginner to suits and idk about it a lot. I bought white t shirt and some dark navy suits. But I didn’t like the pants. It does not fit me well.

understandable - a picture or pictures will be far more useful than words for this as @GSH said. also you mentioned you bought navy suits - how many suits do you now have, and how often are you expected to wear a suit (if your bosses told you a number go with that)

What is your budget? General advice is to go to SuitSupply. Your first two suits should be navy and charcoal. Tho if you are in Canada and near Toronto, go to Spier and Mackay
