Where can I buy the cheapest boys suit possible (being worn as costume for one day only)?

[Stewedcoot]

As mentioned, it's for a costume (for my dd, 11 years). Where I live, there isn't much call for suits for small boys. Nor is there a thriving charity shop scene. And suits aren't sold in cheap and cheerful shops here.

Any ideas pls? Preferably on-line?

try ebay or gumtree?

I suggest you do a separate search for jacket or blazer and trousers, rather than for a suit - it won't matter if they don't match exactly, from what you say.

Thank you! I have been searching the equivalent of Gumtree over here but haven't had much luck! People are asking for 200 Euros!!

Good idea about searching for separates though!

M&S had a lot on the sale rail yesterday, I noticed. It looked like the tail end of the sale so are perhaps reduced a lot by a huge amount by now.

Would a school blazer and trousers do? You might be able to borrow those more easily.

bhs ?

Thanks very much! I'm looking for a full suit with waistcoat, will have a look at M&S and BHS websites ...

What is the show?

I've picked up dance costume suits cheaply from ebay but they have been in the dance/theatre wear section not normal clothes.

Some plain black & some pin striped. The trousers are elasticated & very thin material (so they adapt & arnt hot under stage lights). The brand is often IDS

It's for a school history project - dd does dance - but not in this instance! She is dressing up as a famous historical figure and has chosen Winston Churchill. I just thought that a three-piece suit would be such a pain to have to make - (and she doesn't have normal trousers - just leggings and jeans) that it would be easier to buy a very cheap second hand suit - with an emphasis on the cheap!

That's good to know for the future though Pictures thank you!

Next 3 piece are about 20-30. But you can pick them up on ebay for 5

Ebay it is then Prisoner thank you!

Www.cachetkids.co.uk cheap and cheerfull

Thanks nature will investigate! (might get away without jacket and just waistcoat thinking about it)
