any ideas where I could look for a suit that's smart but a bit different from the usual black/boring getup? Without spending ££££ if poss. Just wondering if there are any gems out there I've missed...

TIA!

thanks both. Not sure what I'm after exactly, just something unusual. Will have a look in Mango

is it for work or play

Places like John Lewis are usually good as they have lots of different makes in there !

np, it would be work, and quite formal eg interviewing situation. But still hankering after something other than black/navy, which is okay as my field is more creative than corporate iyswim.

Zara also

if you are flush try Whistles or Jigsaw.

mmm red sounds lovely. Oddly drawn to the idea of a green one too

MrsB, Jigsaw

Lusting after their little tulle covered dresses/skirts, which I think must have give me suit-blindness in there. Will have to have another look!

I have to say Jigsaw is the place I always turn to for a suit, well cut and not as pricey as you might think...
