Men's Outfit Builder App

    Is there an app where I can build an outfit to see what it looks like?? Trying to plan a suit for the races but don't want to buy the pants or the blazer and find that they don't match.

    I'm thinking a white gingham shirt with black lines, a navy blazer, cream/white trousers and not sure about the shoes or the bow tie. The attachment is what I'm looking for

    I dont think so. I'd say it'd be hard to do as unless you use actual photos of what you have, you can't really get a good idea of what you'll end up with.

    Op I'd say that outfit shirt is actually dark navy rather than black. Do you have any elements of the outfit? If so just bring them with you when you're picking out the other elements.

    Perhaps not exactly what you're looking for OP, but a friend told me of thread.com recently which allows you to pick your style, state your preferences for types of clothing etc. then pick out what you'd wear casual, office wear etc. from pictures provided - based on this you're forwarded suggestions on outfits that you may be interested in

    I know that mightn't help you specifically in this instance but for future reference it could prove beneficial for building an outfit

    Yeah I have the shirt it is dark navy actually. I have the trousers on the way so I'll bring them with me when I'm getting the blazer.

    Where would be the place to get a blazer for around €100 budget. I was thinking Zara?

    TBH you'd be better bringing the shirt to match a blazer. Zara would be good I'd say, or even M&S.

    As for the shoes I'd go with a brown oxford or brougues. A knitted navy bowtie would look good, try penneys actually, they might have something decent. iver island or debenhams are good for accessories too.

    for shoes I think I'll wear boat shoes as the pants will be cropped. Ya, never thought of M&S tbh.

    Would you not go to a proper men's clothes shop rather than trying to mix and match yourself?
