Suit for a man

4 replies

SulkySullenDame · 16/10/2010 09:11

Hi, I'm looking for some advice please...

We have a wedding to go to next week and DP needs a new suit. He also has a new job (potentially) lined up from Jan which he will have to wear a suit for. I'd like something multi purpose and not too expensive. Can you get a decent suit for around £200?

He's a scruffy bugger and until now has only worn uniform for work, so has only got a suit he's had since he was a lad - he's now 40! He is 6foot 4, 34 waist and wery 'leggy' and lean.

Oh, and we don't shop in M&S, but that's another thread Grin

Thank you ladies.

Austin Reed outlet? I say outlet as they are usually a bit more than £200 in the shops?they keep their smartness though so are good for work, you should be able to get on for £200 or less at an outlet.

I just bought my husband a a slim-fit navy suit (with the straight-fit trousers) from ASOS. He loves it. And it was very cheap.

He's very lean as well, and because the suit is slim fit, it looks like he is wearing the suit rather than the suit wearing him, IYSWIM. We're planning on ordering it in grey as well!

(disclaimer: he obviously doesn't wear it with that ridiculous man-cleavage t-shirt the model is wearing)
