Giorgio Armani Classsico
I know very little about this suit, I was given it by a friend in the army some time ago who I no longer have contact with . All I know is that it is a Giorgio Armani Classsico, it has no sizes and I took the dimensions below. It needs a professional dry clean as it it very creased currently. The only damage is the small "Giorgio Armani" label at the nape of the neck is detached on one side. otherwise the suit is in perfect condition. The photo of the label is identical in the trousers and jacket.

Hi Drew,
Thank you for contacting Mearto with your appraisal inquiry.
Giorgio Armani Classico is the most traditional of Armani’s tailored suit collections. It sits alongside other Armani tailoring labels like Giorgio Armani Neve (luxury sportswear) or Made-to-Measure, but Classico focuses on timeless, formal elegance. It was designed for men who want a conservative, enduring look rather than trend-driven styling.
This has some elements that remind me of a tuxedo - is that the case?
Used Giorgio Armani Classico rarely bring more than a few hundred dollars at auction these days; if you're interested in selling it, you might try a local consignment shop or reach out to people in your area who specialize in vintage menswear (Instagram is a good source for that).
