The Suit Is Back, and America’s boardrooms and bars are looking smart again. Retailers are crazy about the trend because it also is helping to beef up men’s apparel sales. Sales of men’s tailored clothing surged 19% from January to June this year, after falling 11% in ’03 when total men’s apparel sales were $47 billion, down 6.4% from the previous year’s $50 billion. In the first 6 months of this year alone they have jumped 6.4% to $21 billion. The men’s dress-shoe business is also bouncing back. (USA Today 9/1/04)
