I prefer Paul Smith suits myself - there is a Paul Smith shop in Manchester.

I would say dont worry about "names" and go and see a local tailor.

A well tailored, bespoke suit will blow Versace out of the water.

Probably blow it out of water ........ in terms of quality.

But everyone knows when you have got a versace / moschino suit on ........ It's all about the image ;)

probaly a silly question but how will they know unless you plan on wearing it inside out so the label shows .

For someone who 'knows' about fashion ... and about garms .... will know when you are wearing a mosch or a versace suit mate .......... trust me.

It's the 'design' of the suit ...... and emblems, stiching that those designers put on clothing that makes them distinctive.

Iceberg are great for doing this ...........

Go tailored. I've got a couple made.

TBH, its not as if designer ones have big massive labels that lets everyone know who made it - its usually the inside lining that gives it away.

You should try an outlet centre Mitch - the one near me is Bicester Village, but they're all over the country - they have shops that are owned and run by the manufacturers.

there's deffo a Versace shop there.

There's a big centre in Swindon too.

A quality well tailored suit will always look better than an off the peg suit, in my opinion. I've seen people wear a Hugo boss suit and look like Don Johnson (That's bad) If you want to stand out you could always wear some nice white socks and some boat shoes with your plain black Boss suit :) . Sorry

I could never imagine this type of discussion on a Saxo/Nova forum!

i always remember i met some numpty :tsktsk: salesman once but he still had the armani label on his cuff and seemed to be really proud of it, i have never laughed so much!

For the price of a decent Armani, you could get a very nice tailored suit from a decent tailor - there are a couple of good ones in London..

[SHAHZ]

A bit far for you mate but New Bond Street has plenty of shops ;)

[Mr Morse]

Try Christopher Scotney on London Road in Leicester, just up the road from the railway station.

They do Valentino, Versaci, Armani etc etc

I had a cool looking cream Valentino suit from them, even turned up the trousers FOC

I must admit I do like the quality of Versace, especially in their blazers. Although i've only "tried" them on.

My suits are Pierre Cardin which for my physique are the most comfortable i've ever worn, and perfect for work and social events.

I would recommend going for the Versace suit (although pricey) or have one "Made-To-Fit". Have you decided on the material / colours, that you are planning to wear?

[stevenage_saint]

I agree a good tailored suite will always look better than an off the peg one. As you are in Stafford you are close to Chester Barrie near to Crewe. I got suits from them (and they make for a number of designers) and they offer tailor made suites too

matalan for me everytime :D

[Niraj]

Yes well £40 for a suit, can't go wrong... must admit, i've been wanting to shop their for a while. Saw a nice "looking" suit in their catalogue...

Is it shameful to buy a suit from Matalan??? I think not!!! :D

There is a Paul Smith shop there too where I got a suit from much cheaper than the full retail price.

[Zee007]

Or try Flannels (one in Nottingham, Manchester and London).

They do Armani, Versace, PS, Gucci, Prada etc.

It's where I usually get my clothes and suits.

[Chris.S]

How about Leisure suit Larry style

Try eBay

[lexus boy]

A designer suit, why not get one tailored

your clearly bothered about the name as such a statement indicates

the onyl way you can pull off looking good in a designer suit is it it is fitted to you specifically IE tailored :D
