Thread: help - where do the nobs buy clothes in Sydney

Try David Jones.

If you can cope with the mincing serving staff, and can commit to the expenditure never being useful again, go to Five Ways Fusion in Paddington.

If you want something more long-lasting that you may be able to use again - go to Henry Buck's in O'Connell St in the City . They may be a Melbourne shop originally, but their stuff is really good quality and can be worn outside Sydney....

Good luck

QVB. Queen Victoria Building.

Clinton there are always hire wear places or up market Vinnies and other 2nd hand many that have only been worn once I am serious Myers hire.

pm box full

Gentlemen do not buy 'off the peg' clothes and I fear you may have left it too late for a bespoke tailor.

Hire clothing!! Lets not even go there.

PM me if you're up for a beer whilst in the emerald City

If they wont take you the way you normally dress, you don't want to go there mate

Tell 'em "take me as I am or leave me where you found me"

You can take the boy out of the country, but you can't...

OK, I'll stop now.

How 'bout Gowings?

Kmart, the same as everyone else.

wear your uniform

Wear what your most comfortable in

Mate not sure what you mean by Velvet rope? If its an S&M thing you can get a good latex suit from the shop besides the HellFire club at Surrey Hills.

If you want some decent threads though I would try Tarocash on Oxford Street...infact you you cant get decent cloths on Oxford Street your :

1. Are lacking a pulse and hence dead
2. Big fat and ugly
3. A bogon
4. So homophobic that you aren't game to use the change rooms.

Yes Oxford Street is how do you say...quite colourful...........

Thanks all, there is more than enough suggestions to have a crack.

Yes, I usually go "the man inside, not the superficialities" route however, this time I am on someone elses turf and will be going to places that they consider important.

Thanks for all the suggestions... I'll only have a few hours before starting the weekend's adventures, which is a few hours longer than I usually spend on buying clothing.

in fact, if you can't get decent cloths on Oxford Street your:

5. a tight wad that is just not really interested.

BT he wants to be decked out like a snob, not look like he's going to a dance party!

I've got a mate who lives in Balmoral. I'll ask him where he shops.

Ptt st , go to the end of the mall then keep going towards centeral ststion , 1/2 a block on the right shop at the front of an arcade something Bennet or Barlow ? does everything from dinner suits to a walk up kings cross clobber, shoes sox belts etc etc quality stuff buy once lasts for years, try the Hugo Boss brand

I regret to inform SilentC that Gowings is no more, and hasn't been for a few years now.

Buying? Black pants, white shirt, tie & bow tie, black shoes - Lowes.

Hire the jacket. You will then be covered for most 'formal' occasion for the next 20 years. DJ's & Myer have hire departments & can hire you the lot, except for sox & jox.
