The term 'power suit' got its start in the 1980s and it was mostly thanks to one Mr. Giorgio Armani. The Italian maestro of menswear tailoring defined the look of that decade: broad shoulders, narrow hips, and brooding confidence. Fortunately, however, that slightly animated look stayed in that era. But the brand's suits continue to evoke the same powerful message. To this day, some of the most influential and important men in the world continue to sport Armani, from Hollywood celebrities to executives of the biggest companies in the world. And if you're lucky to get to wear something of his, expect to look rich!

Similarly to Burberry, this German brand got its start making military uniforms too. To this day, they still know how to tailor a mean suit, one that's ultra-modern yet timeless at the same time!
