    Pinstripe suits are getting as common as plain ones now and I don't get them. Makes you look like the lead saxophonist in a 1950's jazz band.

    They just remind me of retired footballers who think their £50k weekly wage can buy them style, they wear stupid ****ing clothes that cost stupid amounts and think that's the basis for looking good.

    These have got a good rep, but you need to know your measurements. 180 to 250 quid, very good choice of materials and colours. think you even get a second pair of trousers (same colour etc) for half price if you want

    Got to say there sounds to be some right dapper lads on here. Get retired or emigrate to warm climes, chinos or shorts, flip flops or trainers, tee or polo shirts. Sorted.

    Oh aye, I forgot you have a living to earn.

    I'm currently shopping for wedding suits.
    I've narrowed it down to greenwoods, slaters and Moss bros. Some superb choices, greenwoods in particular for something a bit more dapper. All online too so have a gander on their sites before to save time.
    Last 3 piece suit I bought a few years ago from next I think. I Like it very much

    Concur, I like a waisty under a suit, absolutely essential that the fit is perfect tho, and that it's a skinny tie.

    Go to York outlet you might be able to get a Hugo suit for close to £250. As long as you ain't a fat **** like, Hugo don't make suits for fat ****s.

    Cheap suit, expensive tie. That's my rule.

    Ties last a lot longer than the bottom half of a suit!

    What I can't come to grips with is the current trend of wearing a suit that looks a size too small with narrow trousers. Ranks along side flares for me.
