Skirt suits from Fifie promise

(...at a cost I shouldn't wonder).
Waits with bated breath...

...plus interesting copy line in there...'keep ahead of the latest trends'. Hmmmm. Surely that's not actually being trendy at all.

one of two things is happening

either an all-male store is opening up to women customers (i think the more likely)

or

an all-male store is opening up a line of male skirt-suits (sorry, but i think this VERY unlikely)

i will be happy to be proven wrong, though!

Looks promising but the website gives the 'impression'
that any product purchased from this company will
cause multiple dollars/pounds/etc, to go flying out of
the wallet! Not for the 'common everyday Joe'!

Just my opinion and 2 cents worth :)

I just sent them an email asking to confirm gender of said garments.
I'm more interested in what they'll look like than taking out a mortgage for one.

I also emailed and asked whether they were opening a women's wear department or would these be skirted suits for men. I made the point that as one of a growing number of men who chooses to wear a kilt, I might be tempted by a well tailored men's skirted suit (no harm in reminding / telling them there may be a market).

If I get a reply I'll let the good folks here at my favourite café know what they say, unfortunately, like R1g0r, I suspect they are more likely to be opening a women's section but you never know....

Have fun,


Ian.

Well, no reply yet.
Maybe they've ceased trading.
