try Jacamo

You won't get good quality on that budget for that volume of clothing. A few good quality things or several poor quality things. Choose one.

However did we manage to clothe and feed ourselves before the internet?

PapaLazaru · 5 Feb 2015 at 06:41

5x shirts from TM Lewin for £100. 2x pairs of trousers from Next for £50.

Next isnt as budget as you think, its not as expensive, but I wouldnt be manageable on that budget for their better range.

For a decent shirt, your looking at £30-35 each+, however you can get double packs of shirts for £20 (not great ones) or you can pay a bit extra

Same again with trousers, you can pay around £25 for your standard trousers, or for decent ones they can be £45+

Same with shoes.

Its like any place

Probably work out maybe around £200 for what you need possibly

tried debenhams?

Windle · 5 Feb 2015 at 09:24

Seconded on Debenhams, it's not top of the range but comfortable and looks smarter than the price would suggest.

Raumarik · 5 Feb 2015 at 09:26

Decent trousers, couple of good quality jumpers and cheap shirts. With a jumper on you never need iron nor care about it..

Shame you missed the Next sale as you could've loaded up on that budget! Though I reckon their quality (especially in shoes) has gone down a lot recently.

I'd do this, much better than most high street shirts and the rest of the budget can be spent easily on trousers.

Next Signature line is great for shirts/ties and trousers. I'd never buy their shoes though as they will last 2 seconds before either falling apart or looking rather weak.

Clarks have good deals of genuine leather shoes all the time, hundreds of styles to choose from.

Next, Debenhams and M&S keep doing 20% off offers.
