where to buy a cheapish suit?
 

I've been shanghai'ed into two weddings in about a month ( :cry: ) and need one, pronto, and cheapish! don't want to look like Paul Calf or Graham Norton. Any suggestions?

can you wear black suit/ white shirt to weddings ? I wanna look "gangsta" :thumb:

Don't ask me... I always look like I've been dressed by committee. :D

They're doing some quite snappy suits in Next for around £130

Some are a pretty good cut and fit for a cheap suit too :)

(ooh, and make sure the cashire give you a proper suit holdor...not a naff platic bag one, they may fob you off, but they do have them ;))

I didn't ;)

If I want to look like the b@stard lovechild of dennis the menace & the pulp fiction gimp, I'll pose the question in muppets :thumb:

Asda and Tesco do them for about £30 I believe....

Cue heart attack for Chip :(

cheers! :thumb:

a good fit depends on the individual. are they shaped around overweight salesman on a budget, or buff builders with cash to splash?

Go to House of Fraiser when they have a sale on - you can pick up a very smart one for about £200 or less.

I always think its silly to spend £130 on a ok one, when if youre spending that much you may as well spend a little extra and get something really nice!

I'm not tight! :mad:

<cue L101> :D

I don't think any of them come in a 26" leg:razz:

if they have one in the trafford centre I'll have a butchers. I don't want anything too smart, one of the weddings is for 2 deaf chaps, so I'd rather sink ino the shadows at the reception :Suspiciou .

what about tartan, or gold lame' ? :D

:D

my IL is more than my waist, thanks :lol1:

Not sure if they have a HoF at the Trafford Centre, but theres a good Selfridges there, so that might be worth a look :)

They're more suited to a short arse with a mild beer belly :D

The Jeff Banks stuff at Debenhams isn't bad, but more money, fit isn't any better, and they do have Grayham Norton coloured silk linings.

Seeing me in a suit is as common as the second comming. Although a collegue deviously snapped me in one a few weeks back at w*rk leaving me open to public ridicule :mad:

Well, if money is no object, get yourself a Hugo Boss :thumb:

pics please :)

Feckin' fill yer boots, Chip! :lol1:

i got mine at slaters cost £70 and it was taylored for free, looks pretty good for the money, nothing flash just plain black

Does that mean no music and just a sign language DJ?

next it is then ! :D

5' 8" 473"' isn't short :razz:

If only. :(

Some of the signing would make crazy dance moves for the likes of Astraboy. :thumb:

:thumb: they charged me £70 for alterations when i bought mine :mad:

Savoy Taylors Guild do decent ones also :)

a bummers wedding then :lol1:

its not deaf in the normal sense. it's deaf as in two geezers getting married.

theres only 6 people going, the groom, the groom, 2 best men + partners. my bird's "best man" I'm maid of honour :lol1: + :Suspiciou

:lol1:

DFS ?

I hate camera phones :mad:
