5 /5 Jerry Colon: I’ve been looking for a suit for my wedding, and I had a pretty clear idea of what I wanted. I even had a photo—an all-black, very slim, form-fitting suit that looks sharp and snazzy. I went to Men’s Wearhouse on two different occasions. The first time, I showed them the picture of the look I wanted. The guy brought out a suit for me to try, but it was this big, loose, boxy thing. It looked completely square, and I left disappointed.
I went back to Men’s Wearhouse yesterday with my fiancée and my mom to give it another shot with a different employee. The suit she brought out was slightly better, but it still wasn’t right. I kept explaining what I wanted and showed her the photo again, and she basically told me I wouldn’t be able to achieve that look. We left feeling defeated.
Earlier in the day, I had Googled high-quality suit stores in the area, and Milano’s showed up at the top of the list, so we went straight there. We got there about an hour before closing, and Nader greeted us as soon as we walked in. He was incredibly welcoming and friendly—which was a relief, because these days if you walk into a store close to closing, you’re usually met with people who don’t want to be there or who give you bare-minimum customer service. But not Nader. He made us feel totally at ease, and it was clear he enjoyed his job and genuinely wanted to help.
I showed him the photo and explained the look I was going for. He pulled a few jackets for me to try on, and they were all beautiful and fit so much better than anything I had tried at Men’s Wearhouse. By the second or third jacket, we had nailed the exact look I’d been chasing—the same look I was told was impossible by the Men’s Wearhouse employee. It was spot-on. We did have a few minor fit issues, but Nader immediately brought out the tailor. They looked everything over, marked the alterations, and said it could all be done with no problem—and in less than two weeks! And the price for my wedding attire was well within budget.
I can’t express enough how grateful I am for Milano’s and for Nader. Thank you for a wonderful experience and for helping me find the perfect suit for my special day!
