You wear suit if you're in the U.S., not here. But that's just me and I'm a nonconformist. And there's nothing wrong with that.

Suits are very acceptable here, for formal affairs and at work (especially if you're senior management in a formal or ma-japorms na company). We're still not like HK or SG though where you see even the rank and file workers going to work in suits. At formal affairs, it's always best to clarify the attire (if strictly suit or strictly barong), especially if you're a special guest (sponsor, ninong, ninang, etc.) since the host sometimes sets a motif and you're included in formal pictorials.
