The idea of getting trainee tailors to knock up a decent cheap suit seems like a good idea to me.
It is. Or is certainly worth a shot.
Buying suits from M&S isn't. They are awful, you can spot them a mile off, they look horrid, and are the sole preserve of middle aged middle management who either go shopping with their wives and do as they're told, or just let their wives buy their clothes. And they wear them with Clarks shoes and shitty ties. Awful.
Spend the same money in the sale in Hackett, Austen Reed, John Lewis, Aquscutum, Ede and Ravenscroftm, or similar, and get a vastly superior item.
