How many suits do you own?

How many suits do you own?
How old are you?
What do you do for a living?
If you own no suits, why not?

[noodleskooze]

I answered "None" but I'm really a SS. I have black pants and a black blazer that go together just fine but are not the same brand/not a suit.

ETA: I am 26. My workplace is business casual at best. I borrowed a suit when I interviewed 5 years ago.

I currently own two but they are too small.
I am in my early 30s and I work in telecom.
I will own 1 suit that fits me within the next few hours. :Y:

I am a 37 year old lawyer.
I own many suits.
Not all of them fit.

I'm a SAHM. (I worked in communications/PR previously).

[TrudyCampbell]

Zero suits
Age 30
Currently a SAHM, was a registered nurse.
I can't think of anywhere I'd wear a suit so I do not own one. I can't remember what I wore to interviews, but it wasn't a suit.

[meggers5]

I own 5, I'm 27, marketing assistant at an insurance/investment company.

I don't wear suits to work, though I wear the separate pieces.

I bought them very reduced when I worked in retail, figuring I would need them at some point. I wear them for interviews.

[thedutchgirl]

Oh, 12 or so that I would wear today.

That is not SS.

That is "None."

I'm 35
I'm a SAHM

I bought 2 suits after college for interview purposes, but the fields in which I"d be working (immunology bench research and nursing) didn't require suits at work ever. I wore them for interviews only, and after about 10 years I got rid of them because they were ill fitting and old, and I figured if I ever needed one again I'd buy a nice new one. Haven't needed one since.

I do not own a suit. I am 32 and a SAHM. I had a very casual suit that I wore when I interviewed at my old company 9 years ago but it didn't fit so I donated it. A suit was never required at my old job. I didn't wear a suit when I interviewed internally, no one did. I worked for an insurance brokerage.

[sjh722]

How many suits do you own? Two. I think one is currently too big and the other is waaaay too small.
How old are you? 31
What do you do for a living? real estate
If you own no suits, why not? I own two but couldn't tell you the last time I wore one. Most agents here don't; business casual or a blazer/pants is the norm for attending closings, etc.

[firelight1210]

None
Age 30
Loan officer at credit union
I don't own any ACTUAL suits, but I own blazers and pants that work together... I've never had to be super dressy.

[maryellen]

I answered none but I just got rid of 5.  I left the corporate world a few years ago after a 15yr career as a pharma meeting planner   I have a few blazers still but no suits.  I'm 40.  

[jigsy]

How many suits do you own? 5/6 (one has pants or skirt)
How old are you? 29
What do you do for a living? Basically live as a BAMF...suits are obviously a requirement.

I don't wear them except for interviews or very high level briefings.

[circa1978]

Three and several suit separates.

I work in marketing.

I will say that while I own them, the last time I wore a complete suit was four years ago when I interviewed. The climate here is very relaxed.

Planning & Engineering field
I used to own several when I was younger, but my company has become very casual since I started 10 years ago. I've had a lot of weight fluctuation over the years (suits were given away at some point) and I don't go on client interviews so I don't have a need for them.

[jeaniebueller]

1. Not sure. Probably 10?

2. 36

3. Attorney

[wambam]

Two but one doesn't fit. It's too big. I am 27 years old as of tomorrow and I am a materials engineer.

[05heel]

Why do I have to vote to see the results? I care deeply about how many suits everyone has!! Especially that 6-8 category. Man, that looks titillating.

Update: I clicked it. I also don't have any suits.

[Deleted]

I own 1 suit and I'm 28.

[revolution]
