Page Boy Suits

Options
Hi

I seem to be struggling to find nice suits for our page boys at reasonable prices.

They are aged 7 and 9 (although similar height!) and ideally I'd like shirt, trousers & waistcoat (possibly jacket but not sure yet) for around £40-60 each.

I've looked at Debenhams and other high street shops, but they seem to sell what I want as separates so it works out too expensive.

Any recommendations?

SB

    im sure BHS sell sets up to 16yrs. trousers/shirt/waistcoat/cravat. i bought my little ones there to match H2B's waistcoat in an age 2. lots of colours/designs and you can buy cravats seperately in more colours.
    iv done 3 things right in my life and their all perfect

    Thanks for that, BHS do have lots of options but I was really looking for a waistcoat in the same fabric/colour as the trousers.

    I like the look of some of those though so I might need to rethink!

    Monsoon does four- and five-piece pageboy suits from £45: http://uk.monsoon.co.uk/uk/wedding-boutique/page-boy?sort=bestSeller&showAll=true&pageSize=500


    Some of them are out of stock online though so might be worth trying in store if you've got one nearby.

    Loose = the opposite of tight (eg "These trousers feel a little loose")
    Lose = the opposite of find/gain (eg "I'm going to lose weight this year")

    Definitely ebay. Bought my son's suit for £40 new including waist coat and tie. Didn't expect top quality, but it really was, the shirt was so soft, my boy wanted to sleep in it!
