I'm corssing my finger that I hope they do not adapt the sack suit shape of the 60'-70's and have it slightly more modern like the show.
H&M is a good buy though, as long as you do not expect it to last for a couple of years.
If you have an event that you need a suit 3-4 times a year, H&M is a perfect buy and it fits great.
I bought some dress shirts from H&M six months ago...wear them every week and wash them myself, hang to dry, and they're no worse/better than the $100shirts from BR, CK, KC etc etc. I just picked up a cotton navy blazer and the quality looks just as good as a cotton blazer from BR. Granted, I haven'tworn it day in day out, but it was $69 (a third of the BR jacket) and certainly isn't a third of the quality.
That said, the pants at H&M are a no go...a dude can't be athletic and wear their pants, evidently.
My experience with all of these midrange brands/retailers, as far as quality and fitment goes, is they're all really close. I have buttons fall off my$180 BR slacks as fast as my $60 Gap Khakis, CK twill pants, Kenneth Cole, Michael Kors dress pants...its all the same IMO. Its about finding the best valueand fit.
