Help my lovely DH look fab

Hello stylish ladies. My DH has decided he needs some new clothes. With a 4 month DS going shopping is tricky so I have been doing lots of online shopping for myself. DH is struggling to find good websites for men, so any thoughts?
He has a v good figure, no beer belly or anything, so can carry off most things, and would like to be fairly trendy.
Any ideas of where to look most welcome!

My dp likes Howies, and Patagonia

I think Debenhams is good because it has so many different brands on there.

does he want casual ?

My DH is a pain at shopping but was forever moaning about needing new clothes. I booked him a personal shopping appointment at Gap and it was great - but he spent rather a lot of money. They just go off and get loads of stuff to try on after speaking to you about what sort of things you want and what you like.

For smart-casual stuff DH likes monsoon for men (they have a website).

Ooh those links look interesting Franny, never heard of either of those.
Wheelybug he does want casual really, he wears a suit for work, so it's really weekend stuff. It really needs to be online though - he is a nightmare in shops, gets v bored, and would need me there as well, so with DS it's not easy to commit. Good idea about appt in Gap but not really workable at the moment.

Will have a look at Monsoon - I didn't know they did men's stuff!

Both the ones dp likes are pricey IMO but they are very good quality ethically made clothing, and tough wearing as well as good looking. Dp doesn't get through loads of clothes like I do so he sees good quality stuff as an investment. I admire his philosophy but can't quite follow it myself

Any more ideas for online shopping for my DH?

Another vote for Monsoon. My dp, who virtually never buys himself clothes, spent a small fortune in there recently and looks lovely now!

flowerybeanbag · 20/09/2007 18:57

Ooh, it is indeed looking quite good. I had no idea!

Will show DH

DP buys all his stuff from Fat Face which has a good website

flowerybeanbag · 20/09/2007 19:04

He likes Fat Face, haven't thought of website for them...

thanks SM and everyone else so far as well, this is so helpful!

I've been getting my 4 month DS very used to shopping - he likes looking at the pretty colours of the clothes hanging up I decided to start as I mean to go on!
