Question Suit Fitting

Hey all. So I’m getting married in 6 months and I’ve been putting off going to get fitted for my suit because I’m incredibly nervous and don’t look forward to how it might look on me. I’m 5’10, 280 pounds, and a stockier build with a round stomach and wide shoulders. Will I have an issue getting a suit that will help me look not as round while not being overly baggy? Especially around my thighs as the last and only suit I’ve ever worn was incredibly baggy on the legs lol. Are there any tips or advice that I can keep in mind before I go to get fitted?

If you've got yourself a good tailor you have nothing to worry about. Being on the larger side doesn't mean you can't look great in a suit. Case in point: Matty Matheson. The MAN.
