No, son. Do not buy a new suit.

Pack that suit up and bring it to a well-known tailor. A good tailor will understand your body type/size and take the specific measurements accordingly and fix it up for you. Once done, you'll look 100x better and then you can walk out of the shop feeling like a boss. Bitches will start throwing themselves at you. Not only should you let the tailor measure the end of the sleeves, let the tailor measure out the whole suit, pants, shirts and jacket. The whole works.

Tailoring should always be a priority. Never ever underestimate the craft. Find a good, reliable tailor and stick with them. Befriend them and if you ever get married, consider him or her to be your best man. (Ok, just kidding about that part.)
