Any suggestions as to where to buy, I have left it a tad too late to rent one for his Prom on 9th July, any suit hire companies say they ahve little left and I cant get to any before Saturday this week.

Your suggestions will be greatly appreciated.

    I also need a suit for my slim son so we got checked the sizes at the high st shops, ie bhs, marks, next decided price was too high and checked e-bay where I got 1 for £18.

    hoping you know the Leicester area
    If you come out of the Haymarket as if you were going to Wilkinsons theres a suit shop on the corner, I think its called suitsplus but dont hold me to that one
    Anyway they do all sorts of suits and we mamaged to get all the ones we needed for our wedding from there quite cheaply as well

    this is a really good shop, and they are quite cheap, my hubby got a b.o.g.o.f on suits, only cost him £99
    wins so far:- absolutely nothing, not even an arguement:mad:

    Thank you for this, I do recall that shop, its been there for a few years, I dont like shopping in the city, but in this instance, I will send the better half in with the LURCH to see if they have anything for him...

  • I bought one from clothing11 on Ebay for my very skinny son. I got him the age 15 as he is quite small for his age. he only decided he wanted to go last Thursday and the Prom was this Wednesday. Anyway the Ebay shop also has a shop in Smethwick so I got someone to collect it for me. £20. and it was the full works suit, dickie bow and shirt. hth
