Goodliz Posted August 12, 2016 Share Posted August 12, 2016 HelloMy sons are 9 and 12 and will be attending a family funeral. I need to get them a suit each and would have previously just gone straight to BHS. Now I'm wandering where to go. M&S and River Island have them but are too expensive.I'll try Matalan and Asda but wandered if anyone could recommend anywhere please.Many thanksLiz Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/118337-has-anyone-recently-bought-a-suit-for-a-boy/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beaky Posted August 12, 2016 Share Posted August 12, 2016 I got one from Next for my son a year ago for a wedding - has lasted well - you could always use their dark school trousers and put together with a smart shirt and tie and omit the jacket if you are able to - they would still look really smart Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/118337-has-anyone-recently-bought-a-suit-for-a-boy/#findComment-1034038 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Goodliz Posted August 12, 2016 Author Share Posted August 12, 2016 Thanks Beaky. I've found some nice jackets on the H&M website. Fingers crossed they will be OK.Liz Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/118337-has-anyone-recently-bought-a-suit-for-a-boy/#findComment-1034181 Share on other sites More sharing options...
keane Posted August 12, 2016 Share Posted August 12, 2016 M & S do nice boys Blazers/jackets I had to buy for a funeral for sons similar age & got nice pin stripe ones from there with a lovely funky lining that they have worn to a lot of other things too.

Pugwash Posted August 13, 2016 Share Posted August 13, 2016 Do people still dress formally for a funeral? A nice v neck jumper over a shirt with dark trousers seems to be an acceptable compromise from the funerals I have attended or a waistcoat over long sleeved shirt and tie.

Curmudgeon Posted August 13, 2016 Share Posted August 13, 2016 I don't believe that anyone expects children to be suited for funerals Dark trousers and casual smart should suffice Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/118337-has-anyone-recently-bought-a-suit-for-a-boy/#findComment-1034361 Share on other sites More sharing options...
