    I am going shopping this week for a suit for my 18 year old brother, his first suit- awww.. Anyway question is where would be the best place to bring him, don't want to break the bank on the suit, but it will be used for weddings, interviews and stuff. I'm thinking some High Street shop, but I'm not as familiar with suit shopping as I am dress shopping!! Help please!!

    We are in the midlands, so thinking between tullamore, athlone, galway and limerick. High street stores would probably our target, any ideas??

    River Island would be good for a young person's suit too.

    A friend of mine works in a menswear shop in Ballinasloe, I know that at the moment they have a massive sale on suits and stuff, it's not a High Street shop so I know people think one off family owned shops are expensive but they honestly have nice stuff and would help out big time picking a good quality suit.

    I don't know about putting the name of it on here in case it seems like I'm advertising it, but if you're interested I can PM you?

    +1 on RI. Bought a suit there last year for my debs. It was really nice and not that expensive. A jacket, trousers, shirt and tie came to about €180 or so.
