This one was bought from Matalan. I have a few of their suits as they are incredibly cheap (especially as when I wear them onstage I never buy the jacket – the most expensive part).
You can often buy them at the end of the season because the shops have run out of certain sizes of particular items and as such the prices can drop below £30 for a waistcoat and trousers.
On this occasion, though, I’ve lost weight an no longer had a full three piece suit which actually fit me so I bought all three pieces.
This one is a grey blue fabric. It’s not the best quality fabric but doesn’t crease easily in my suit bag when I’m carrying it to a gig – which is always a bonus.
It’s also a slim fit. Surprisingly, since losing a lot of weight I’ve found myself heading for slim fit as the cut is much more modern.
