I got a nice suit in Diffney's in Stephens Green centre about 6 months ago. Marks and Sparks are also good for suits

You'll not a get a decent suit, shirt AND shoes for E200. You might get a good wool suit for E200 on sale somewhere.

Next's suits are really nice, good range of styles and great value too. The one in Liffey valley has a decent menswear Dept.

I know of a groom that bought his wedding day suit in aldi or lidl don't know which. He bought it for 27euro. It was too small for him so he got it altered a couple of gussets stitched in at either side.

27 euro seems a little expensive for those suits in aldi.

He was a Kerry man. He said that no one would notice the gussets on the day as his shirt would be hanging out over it by the time he would take his jacket off.
