Where do you buy your business suits or suits in general? Subject description: need to get a nice suit within 3 weeks |
|
I can't afford to spend too much on a nice fashionable suit because of my budget atm but I do need to buy 1 soon, within 3 weeks. Any ideas of places where I can find a tailor and get a suit. Thanks in advance!

Dunno where you're located, but I get most of my clothes from:
Harry Rosen
Hugo Boss
Banana Republic
For cheaper stuff, you could try Moores or Tip Top Tailors...these may mean nothing to you though.

a suit? i just had to do this for severeal events including just a spy costume for TF2.. you can sorta put something together with the Merona brand at Target. it will still be just about $200-250 though for a full setup with tax (socks,pants,shirt,tie,belt and coat, shoes?)
target.com
compared to a 600+ at a "real" place though. the fitting though is really the issue, i have no idea what a tailor in your area charges, but u would need one. yellow pages.
other then that, usual i would say something like Macys, jos a bank, or that mens wharehouse place, but im sure that will run closer to 400 for just pants,shirt,coat. suits are expensive!

Thanks for your help. Unfortunately some stores mentioned are not in my area, but good for reference. I'll check out Men's Wearhouse although expensive I'll check it out. I was also considering renting instead of buying. My budget is $500 for now but I'll have to see. More on the situation coming soon. Laters!
