Good Quality Clothing - Fashion
Would you pay out more for better quality clothing with a tailored fit, or do you prefer to buy throw away 'one size fits all' clothing?
Do you agree that looking smart is essential for public facing work? Or does it no longer matter?

Classic?
Yes- I am not a fashionista.
Classic cut clothes last longer.

In my dotage I am not as fussy as I used to be, made to measure suits and casual jackets along with named shirts and leather shoes were my choice. Now I couldn't be bothered I recently bought an off the peg suit at Debenhams that frankly was as good a fit as a made to measure suit but I did buy a named brand of shirt to go with it.

I think I spend £100 to £200 max a year on clothes, mainly Primarni. I don't go out much.
Actually personally less than that as get bought clothes at Birthdays and Christmas.

I've never been a brand person, wouldn't dream of buying Levi's or any other designer brand jeans this goes for all my clothes, most of mine are Tesco or Sainsbury and the odd Next shirt this said my suit is Next.
I will look in the sale and if it is a genuine bargain will buy a brand, I bought a Jasper Conran jacket form Debenhams a couple of years ago as it was half price then half price again so was at a similar price to what I could get in previous mentioned shops.

I did buy a suit from there once. I was in a hell of a rush to get a suit for a wedding, and that was the only store where I could purchase immediately. (Generally, I have to order and wait for items to be sent) Got a fair fit, I must admit. Two days later, after work I got on a plane and flew over to Italy for the wedding. To get to the district I wanted I had to catch a train in Italy, where I fell asleep. I arrived at the Hotel for the venue, went straight to my room and woke up on the morning of the wedding. While everyone else was getting dressed up - I was frantically searching for my suit. One of the other guests drove me back to the station to see if it had been left on the train - no joy. I went to the wedding, the only person dressed in slacks and a shirt. It would appear that Debenham's suits are highly valued - since it appeared that I had been robbed some time during the train journey.
