For me, 1989.
Mrs H did manage to find me an excellent suit at Oxfam when I needed one for an amateur dramatics production in about 1996.
That is still my 'go to' suit i.e. when I 'go to' a wedding, funeral, interviews (ha) etc.

I'll bet, I hope you don't wear it with a Dickie Bow that lights up and spins as well. |

The last time I bought a suit was when my mother died in 2003.Got to wear it 5 weeks later when my father died.Too much grief too soon.
It still fits perfectly. Other than weddings and funerals the only other time that I've worn it was to my daughter's graduation. Much the same could be said about the last time that I've worn a tie. As an aside,it surprises me to see people turning up at funerals in casual dress. I've attended a few funerals of fellow allotment holders so I'm not talking about youngsters. |

Something outlandish like a a 70s or 80s "fashion" suit can look ridiculous now but a classic can be worn forever? A lot of people now are wearing suits that I'm sure no different to what was worn in the 50s or 60s. You could easily imagine Steve McQueen in a period film wearing a suit sold today.
I have a zoot suit. Never goes out of style . |
