Review on πŸ‘” Spring Notion Two Button 3 Piece White Boys' Suit Set with Sport Coats by Cornelius Mosley

Revainrating 5 out of 5

You get what you pay for. The expectations were justified.

I gave 5 stars because it met my expectations. It was only $48.00 for 3 pack. In the photo and on the body, the costume is beautiful. I ordered size 10; My son is just over 21 inches tall and weighs about 70 pounds. On my first quick fitting upon receipt, I thought the suit fit. After the second fitting it was definitely too big. No wonder my son said he was so comfortable. This is a regular suit. I ordered a size up, now I understand because the suit we currently have is a size 8 modern or slim suit. My previous experience of buying suits for children is from Kolya (doesn't fit well, not high quality materials but durable and washable) and from Chasing Fireflies where I paid about $160 for a well tailored suit with quality materials, exceptional fit, great finishes, patterns, lining etc. I would give Kohls 3 stars and CF 5 stars. Kohls let me down and CF lived up to my expectations for the price. The criticisms of this suit, here they are: The color of the lining of the jacket and the lining of the suit don't go well together. It is light brown with red satin stitching. If you want the color match to be that far, I'd go for Contrast instead, and the material is cheap. The lower collar of the jacket is unlined, the white lining is open. By open I don't mean closed You can only see the interface under the collar when you "open" the collar. The number of threads for all loops is small and there are a lot of loose threads. The buttonholes on the cuffs of the jacket are wrong, only the dash "xxx" is meant to indicate the buttonholes. The waistband of the trousers is sewn with a harsh flux that does not harmonize with the drape of the fabric. The pockets of the jacket and vest are artificial. Do you see on the product image where the collar of the vest and jacket is attached? Mine are much closer together. Makes me think I don't need a vest because it's almost invisible. Pros and Why 5 Stars: The overall quality met my expectations. The costume looks beautiful not a single line is wrinkled and the drape of the fabric is very comfortable. Heidi Klum and Zac Posen will not criticize this clothing design. You can't beat the price. He would only wear it for a few hours a day. It also arrived 6 days earlier than expected! I spent a little time looking for costumes online, didn't have to lug my baby around to multiple stores, and while it didn't arrive in the best possible way, he arrived really early. Other: I bought a white tie that Spring Notion sells, it's "stronger" than a suit. It's made from a thick satin fabric, unlike the lighter shirt I bought and the suit itself. A heavier weight white shirt can pull everything together. But the tie sizing and ease of use are good and to be expected. I didn't like that the tie zip was black, especially when used with a light suit.

Pros
  • practical item
Cons
  • so far so good
