Definite emphasis in this list on experiencing fashion, as opposed to online shopping. Some eye-catching sites (and products, and prices I presume). So it's probably off topic of me to ask for any thoughts or links for buying great suits online - not invitation-only great, but wearable and stylish. Or does no-one in the Valley wear suits these day?

  Sure, but would you ask people here about such things?

There are good options on-line for suits (look at CommeUnCamion.fr for an extensive source of mainly lower-end, but still very fashionable offers from the same city), but anything remotely tailored is very much a personality and body-type thing — neither translate that well with on-line photos; the whole point of a (classic) suit being to shroud imperfections in dark cloth, i.e. hard to photograph. There are IT-based innovation, like (still in Paris) Costumes Samson, that uses 3D imaging of your chest for a perfect cut (roughly three-to-four numbers for a suit); they have a web presence, but the added value is still in-shop. Is anyone in the Valley wearing suits? There certainly are, fewI presume — but it doesn't really matter in Paris, where every entrepreneur wears: dark suit, white shirt & jeans no matter what; and where having a well tailored of any of these three is a great conversation starter.

StyleForum and reddit /mfa/ would both recommend SuitSupply. For the cost they're hard to beat.
