For a concealed carry gun, between the two you suggest, I would go with the Sig 220. Many of the reasons have been stated, but I'll just sum mine up:
1) No safety- while safeties keep the trigger from firing when you don't want to fire, they can also keep the trigger from firing when you want to fire.
2) Double Action trigger- for a first round shot, personally, I want the extra weight of a DA trigger, mostly to help offset my adrenaline.
I like my 1911, believe me. But for carry, I pull out my CZ-75 BD (essentially the same benefits as the 220).

That is mainly because it is thinner, which also makes it easier to conceal.

Baloney. Thickness is only relevant when carrying IWB, and the difference in thickness between a 1911 and a Sig 220 is not enough to be significant when carried OWB/SOB/Shoulder. Hyperbole does not lend itself well to a successful argument.
