Gray Suits: Fuck, Chuck, or Marry?

By Matthew Marden

December 11, 2009

Welcome to Fuck/Chuck/Marry, a weekly feature about negotiating those tricky relationships with your wardrobe. This installment: gray suits.

Check out the options.

FUCK

CHUCK

When we first saw the shrunken jacket and high-water trouser, it screamed cutting-edge. Now the novelty has faded, and the scream sounds more like a grating, high-pitched cry for attention.

MARRY

Even before you laid eyes on this one-button suit, you fantasized about it. With its structured jacket and flat-front pants, it makes you feel like the man you've always wanted to be.
