Debenhams is quite good for boys' suits.

Very skinny are available from Top Man or Next (not necessarily naice, though). Smile

Next do a skinny fit

Possibly very untrendy, but M&S are doing a deal if you buy a £99 suit you get a shirt and tie free. I was looking for dh but then realised they were all slim/skinny fit which is no good for him.

Burton do skinny fit.

Agree with Next for skinny suits, both lounge and dinner.

Mabelface · 14/04/2016 22:14

Next fitted my skinny boys well

We got my (approx size 6) DS suit from John Lewis , they do a slim fit as does m&S and top man.

AnyFucker · 14/04/2016 22:15

top man

Got a good dinner jacket for Prom from Next for my skinny ds....got waistcoat too and he loved it....( wing collar shirt and bow tie... Very 007!)

I bought a suit for my tall (nearly 6'), extremely skinny, 14 year old at our local Jaeger outlet, where they have a seemingly permanent sale. It was a £400 suit, reduced to £75 and it looks great. Have also just bought a very smart navy blazer for my 5'9", slim 12 year old from Reiss, also at an outlet. There are some real bargains to be had in the small sizes.

Definitely Topman

I had a look at M&S, looks like a good deal for skinny fits

will try next and topman too

Last year, we trawled Next, Top Man, etc for a prom suit for skinny DSs. We went, in desperation, to Matalan. Found a lovely dark blue slim/skinny jacket & trousers, around £75.
