The film itself shaved points off my IQ...but the wardrobing was good.

Who makes the suit Ryan Reynolds wears in the wedding scene in the recent film The Proposal?

Alright, this is embarrassing to ask because in doing so I must admit I sat all the way through The Proposal "starring" (haha) Ryan Reynolds and Sandra Bullock. That said, at the end of the "film" (hoho), Reynolds attends a wedding and is in a really great suit.

Simple, austere, black, stylish, tasteful, and light. (Note: it is NOT the suit worn earlier in the film during the movie's eponymous proposal moment. That's an sort of drab office number.)

Is the a repository of such information? Is there a way I can find out?

If you could post a still of the scene it'd be helpful as I don't think anyone else on mefi saw the movie (just joshing ho ho ho)

Jodi Baldwin is listed as the Wardrobe Supervisor of that movie on IMDB. I bet she'd either know the answer, or know who does. I won't post her contact info here (that feels kind of wrong), but it's pretty easy to find on Google.

Entertainment Weekly does a regular-ish column on this type of question and has even talked about Reynolds' wardrobe in that very movie. Maybe that's a place to ask?

Geez, it wasn't THAT bad. No need to be all defensive about seeing it!

Now, was this the suit in question? (Not that it's a great shot, but at least it's a visual of it.)
