Re: Suit...
I bought a suit for a wedding, about a month ago, and a DJ last year, from Suits You in Guildford (Friary centre). They've got quite a good range, also they do alterations if you need it. Manager in there is as mad as a box of fish though, but he knows his stuff.

Depends on what you want to spend and your build. IMO Next suits are actually one of the best for the money. M & S who i wouldn't have touched a while ago now have some very good suits for a couple of hundred quid. Really depends on what you want to spend and what you call reasonable. |

Re: Suit...
debenhams might be worth a look, they seemed very knowledgeable and they were able to tailor the one i wanted to fit my gibbon like frame (long arms, long legs, short torso). it wasn't a "cheap" suit either, they had some nice stuff in there
one bit of advice, if you're thin look at three button ones, if you're not then two rows of buttons looks better...

Re: Suit...
you can un-man the battle stations, it was a typo, i have a single breasted suit with three buttons, because i am thin, not one jacket with two looked good on me, and this was after trying every high street store and tailors...

Re: Suit...
Depends what you want, look in the "good" department stores John Lewis, Debenhams etc. I always tend to check out "Suits You" as they normally have good deals on. You should easily get something for £200 these days, £300 if you want to look a bit sharper.
I have 5 or 6 suits, which are a mix of materials and colours. 2 of them are a mix of lycra and wool, which helps prevent creasing when travelling. I once got told off by the Mrs for spending £400 on a new suit (but it was for a VERY important meeting, and the we won the deal, which more than recouped the cost...) |
