Waistcoats Needed!

PhoenixAngelic, 18 June, 2012 at 18:49 Posted on Planning 0 4

We are on the hunt for five waistcoats for our groomsmen. The styles/colours available from the suit hire shop are not suitable. We cannot hire just a waistcoat from another shop (apparently) but they don't have the suits we want.

Ideally we would like to find some ex hire waistcoats which are reasonably priced or someone who makes them for a reasonable price (not the £65 plus fabric cost that we've been quoted!).

We need a coffee/mocha/dark beige colour if possible and preferably with a dark coloured back.

Any ideas from tailor HIBs or other clever, resourceful hitchers please?

    I would say either eBay.

    Or go for hiring three-piece suits with a mocha tie/cravat or ivory waistcoat and mocha cravat.

    Have you looked on Ebay or Amazon? That's fast becoming my first port of call for anything I needed ;-)

    Thank you everyone so far.

    Just to clarify, we have sourced the suits we want but can only find them in one place locally. Unfortunately, the waistcoats available there are not what we want so we are having to look elsewhere. Other hire shops do not hire just the waistcoat.

    Have been trawling ebay for weeks - just following up on one lead now.

    Any other ideas please?
