Videos like this one just makes me appreciate the suit so much more! I'm one of those who wear suits just because I want to, although I wouldn't consider myself all that fancy. I'm more like... inspired by fanciness. I only have two suits so far, and one of them is a thrifted 3-piece suit that I guessed is probably from the 80's, and by your description of 80's suit styles, that seems like a fit. It has very broad shoulders, wide lapels, low buttons, all that stuff. It's light grey, felted wool mix. It looks more rugged and casual, than formal. I can imagine it might have been something a banker or accountant might have worn. So it's not a suit I'd wear for a wedding, but I think it's perfect for wearing on a casual occasion. Although I don't have any tailoring education, I've alterned the pants and vest by myself, so that they'll fit me better. However, it was altered already when I bought it, and to my dismay, quite horribly so. That was one heck of a challenge to remedy. There was even sharp scrap metal added to the vest, in place of a buckle for the back strap! Can you imagine being stabbed by that every time you lean back in the sofa? And that back strap itself was also horribly manhandled with sewing thread. But now that whole suit is finally good (enough) to go! I refused to give up on it, and I'm glad I kept trying to salvage it. Sure, it's hardly a treasure suit, but it sure is a nice trinket for a peasant, haha. I'm so broke, I have to tailor my own suits... which I buy at thrift stores, lol.

There are four men in particular in the interviews that I'd like to hear your thoughts on regarding their suits. Unfortunately, you can only see the upper parts of their torsos, but you can still get a good idea of what they wore overall. The video is called 1979 Wall Street Interviews. The four men can be found at 1:20 and 3:40.

Should also be noted that military officer fashion had a back and fourth effect on civilian suit wear at times pre world war as well. The frock coats in the 1800s are especially notable for that. It was a far more efficient style of dress while also still allowing for lots of heraldry/decoration.

The 1970's were pretty much a low point all the way around. I dimly remember everyone looking like clowns on casual Friday.

It was a great decade for music and movies but a horrible decade for fashion.

Men's fashion has done nothing new since punk in the latter half of the 70s. It's just been reruns of the old days since then..

I think that post Industrial Revolution suits post 1850s had been very dull and boring and the 1970s was a breath of fresh air with a lovely silhouette and striking colors.

The Zoot Suit's style reminds me of the baggy look of the 90's with big t-shirts, baggy jeans, and even baggy shorts. Some people would still wear the baggy and relaxed look no matter what era it seems.

I wear a suit (or even just a shirt and tie) for many different reasons. But the reason that is most relevant is that it's just something you don't see much anymore. I wore a shirt and tie, with a vest, slacks, and a nice pair of black dress shoes to an open interview of the job I currently work at. Even though I out-dressed the hiring manager (unintentionally), I still didn't fail to impress with my personality and experience. But anyway, wearing nice clothes goes back a long time for me.
