ETA: He's kind of clothes horse. In addition to regular wool suits (dark gray, light gray, and windowpane), he also owns a seersucker suit and a poplin suit.
A bunch -- he used to have to wear them most days to work but doesn't at his current job. But he has them for interviews/important meetings/formal social events so they still get a lot of use.
I think he has two suits and a tux. He's worn the tux a half dozen times or so in the last 3 years, and the suit to a few weddings (including ours), and at least one funeral. He doesn't wear them to work. I think all adult men should have at least one decent dark suit in their closet....you never know when you might need to wear one to a funeral. Sorry if that's morbid, but it's true.

I said "no" but I really have no idea if it fits or not. The last time DH wore (or bought) a suit was for his grandmother's funeral eight years ago. He wears jeans and polo shirts to work and we pretty much never go anywhere that requires clothing fancier than khaki pants and a button down shirt.
When he wasn't wearing suits to work, he'd buy one every year to wear to weddings, job interviews, etc, as needed. He always had at least one good suit.
One that he loves and two more than he likes. He is starting to have to wear suits to work more, so he'll probably add another one soon. He wears blazers/sport coats more often.

Work is business casual so he doesn't need it for that, but he does have one or two that I can think of...he wears it once a year when he goes to church with his parents for Easter, and to the odd funeral and wedding.
Kind of? They were bought as separates and kind of looks like slightly different shades of black. The jacket is way too big because he had it for HS band and had to have room to lift his arms up to hold his trumpet. Lol
