    Been looking loads online to try and find anywhere which has a collection but can't really find anything.

    Can anyone point me in the right direction of something I can see in a brochure online?

    I think you might find it difficult until the autumn/winter stuff starts to come in. Tweed isn't really a summer fabric. I looked on the Magee website (which is the standard for tweed suits) and it's all linens etc.

    Probably not a cheap option but Magee Tweed from Donegal have a shop in Dublin and also a concession in Arnotts I think.

    https://www.magee1866.com/?PartnerID=4&gclid=CjwKEAjw8Jy8BRCE0pOC9qzRhkMSJABC1pvJt5jh_ZzOgbtspj87R4hBYLyKvlX1SnqUaapNvigg2BoC3VHw_wcB

    I did see a mix of tweed and linen on their website, but their sale is on now so they're probably making room for new stock fairly shortly.

    Whats your budget?

    Got mine from Brook travener they do codes for 55% off.

    M&S have some

    Moss bros have some.

    That's the high st Shop's other wise it's mega expensive.

    I found one place in the uk that rents them in Scotland but it was cheaper to buy a jacket and get the trousers off the shelf than rent it for one day!

    Would say you'd be doing very well if you found a tweed to rent as they're not your run of the mill. If you're interested in buying herbie frogg is worth a look.

    Have you considered a vintage tweed suit? My OH got a great one in Siopaella and Eager Beaver has lots of tweed jackets, trousers and waistcoats - haven't seen a suit there but equally I wasn't looking for one. Might be worth a look.
