Hi - I am getting married next October and I am having a fifties style wedding. As a woman I have lots of choice of websites and shops to buy my dress from but I am a bit stuck to what my fella will wear. There doesn't seem to be a lot of shops out there for mens fifties fashion. He would like to wear a fifties style suit. Any ideas on where to look?
Thanks Smile

Your best option is to look on Ebay (especially US sellers) or try one of the vintage shops recommened on The Chap's website.

Radio Days in Waterloo, if it's still going (there were rumours it was to clothes) are good ones.

Or get a tailored suit, but it won't be cheap!

Keep your eye on the ruffled.com blog too. It's all about retro and vintage weddings, you might see something inspiring.
