Goon   10 #6 Posted April 3, 2010 They may have something 'off the peg' that they could alter. May be a cheaper option. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
Mecky   10 #7 Posted April 3, 2010 You're looking at £400 for bespoke. Might be better off buying a suit off the peg then having it made to measure. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

whitehorses   10 #9 Posted April 3, 2010 Why don't you hire a suit?They can alter to fit, and make sure they get all your correct measurements down.It will cost about £150 for a lovely suit, shirt, waistcoat and shoes and cufflinks, in fact the whole package.

Preacher Man   10 #10 Posted April 3, 2010 £400 could be do-able, but off the hanger and getting it altered isnt an option. I have a 10" difference and off the hanger suits are 6". I had a designer suit altered for my sisters wedding but im top heavy and the trousers were like mc hammer pants on me!  Esme, thanks for the link, think i have some research to do, and this is just my suit..  Now where can i hire a lotus elise from Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

whitehorses   10 #12 Posted April 3, 2010 Sounds like what you need is...a wedding planner!! I know you'd like to be sentimental about the suit, but think of the £300 you could spend on something else that you could keep, it could go towards photos or a better ring ?Just a thought, better than a suit hanging in a wardrobe that probs won't fit you in a couple of years, or be out of fashion.
