I Went to Men's W-house and simply told them that the suit would be worn to a pilot interview and 'voila'-the ensemble was presented. Make sure to give a couple days for the hemming of the trousers. The store I went to was uber-professional and seemed very interested to help out. Good Luck!

Went to MW! Very helpful service reps! Told them I needed an interview suit. Picked a dark blue suit...I actually thought it was black, but then checked it in the sunlight...blue indeed!

2 button coat, flat front pants (no pleats)...he said ~85% of modern suit pants are like this now.

Now to find a shirt, tie and shoes!

Hopefully it still fits if/when I get a chance to interview

Thanks again for the advice!

Oh...and I stumbled across this Solo Classic Collections portfolio. Very modern looking.

As for the color of the shirt, does it need to be white?? Or would a color like Red, purple or dark blue be too bold? I worked on Capitol Hill after college and they are pretty conservative out there, but I still managed to never own a white or light blue button down shirt lol.
I wore a dark suit with a conservative purple shirt and I got 2 offers with regionals. Btw, I'm male.
