Boys' suits for prom

Confirm current prices, delivery and stock at the retailer.

Proms run May–July. Buy by April for the full size range.

Buying notes

  1. Fit beats fashion: a well-fitted £60 suit looks better than a baggy £150 one.
  2. Slim and skinny cuts are standard for prom. Check the chest measurement against the chart.
  3. Hire can beat buying for a one-off, but bought suits resell well on resale apps.
  4. Order early: prom season runs May–July and the popular sizes disappear from April.
