I guess it depends on how comfortable you are with the new trends in suiting, and how suitable (no pun) those trends are in your field of work.Originally Posted by RFX45

Persia, I do not find Zara suits too short at all shorter than usual but not too short.
Maybe it's my height?
Here's an example, just bought this blazer from PS, this is usually the regular length in most suits and I find it a bit long.
I'll probably ask the tailor to take out an inch in length since it'll look longer once I take out 3/4" from the sleeves.
Personally, I love the trendy short jacket look, but I would look ridiculous wearing a short jacket to a job interview given the field I work in. Any shorter than the jacket you're wearing here would be a huge faux pas for me right now.
So it does definitely depend on your own situation + your comfort level. So maybe he needs to analyze that a bit, tell us what sort of interview he's going into, etc. If it's an ad agency, that's one thing. If he's going to be interviewing at a law firm, that's a whole different matter IMO.
