Tailored suits fit better than off-the-rack street clothes? That is not an argument for suits, it's an argument for tailoring.

The argument he makes is that suits are designed to be easily tailored, and tailored for many different aspects of the body.

Modern clothes aren't as easy to tailor, because the seams aren't placed well for tailoring, and the patterns / fabric shape also doesn't tailor well.
