I do not belong to guys who wear suits every day. I prefer a much looser, sportier style, and with buckets I’ve never been on the road. All the more so, when I heard that Mr. Marcie was supposed to sew a reflective vest for me, I considered it a kind of fan boy. I was very stupid.
Why do you even sew suit suits? So far I thought it was primarily a way to lanes for blatant corporate employees. I have money, I can afford, and this will further raise my prestige. I know that many guys have exactly the same opinion about it. And they are all wrong. But I, I only became convinced when I tried on what it means to have a suit sewn exclusively for me.
With Mr. Marcie from Van Thorn shop I made an appointment at 16:00. Place is not accidental – the ground floor of an elegant office building. Sienna was in the very center of Warsaw. Everywhere around the full of elegant guys, will probably speak in all the languages of the world. And I – a 30-year-old guy in a khaki suit, hooded sweatshirt and reflective fabric free run. I felt that I was coming from a completely different world. I had, however, memorized the phrase I read on the store page: “With a cup of coffee, a glass of whiskey or cold coca-cola. And so it was nice.
I do not like to waste my time shopping, so I assumed that taking a picture and choosing a measure from me would take no more than three quarters. Finally, I was supposed to receive the help of a professional! Of course I made a big mistake, because I came out of the living room after two hours. No, I’m not a record holder. The selection of the cut and the material itself takes up some even several visits, spread over a couple of weeks. I did not have that much time – to make a suit for me had a record 10 days!
A visit to a reflective suit store had taken an unexpected turn at the beginning. Mr. Marcie, instead of talking about the prices and advantages of individual fashion, has done something I would call “an analysis of my personality. I will ask you many questions. Some of them may seem silly to you – he said on “good morning”. And he asked, at times like a race psychologist.
