Would turning up in this hinder my progress?

I'm only just going into my first year at Nottingham trent and can't wait till I get to make these decisions. I'm geting a bad boy Brioni suit and tbh Zegna ties are much better than hermes

Oh dear, no one cares what you wear especially on the trading floor. That is assuming you don't turn up in a bin bag. My daily combo of shirt + jumper + trousers + shoes (excluding watch) come in at less than £300 combined.

When I've got back to being fit I'm going to take a photo of Harvey to my tailor and ask him for a plain navy single-breasted suit with peaked lapels.

I love this thread.

I love this thread.

So do I, although I'm a bit surprised that it's run for 66 pages. Dressing appropriately is very important, but that's a lot of posts!

Lol why? It's 66 pages long with loads of info. Not like there's a dynamic fashion industry for bankers

Before you start judging the fact my shirts are less than £100 each, this is for my placement year + summer internship. I wouldnt recommend shirts more expensive than CT until you have nothing better to do with the money since the quality and fit (for me atleast) is good and getting more than 4x brand new shirts or the price of 1 turnbull shirt just isnt worth it at this stage...

Im half a year in, this is me so far;

Pre-job:

2x suit, Navy and Charcoal (TMLewin) - £500 between the two
4x Shirts 3 white (2 single cuff 1 double) 1 blue, CT, £81
1x Belt, Black, Ralph Lauren, £30 (sale price obvs)
2x Black Oxfords, Dune £80 each
So many socks
3x Undershirts (primark) £pence
About 20 ties i've collected over the years (new and used), about 5x Boss, 2x armani, 2x ralph lauren, 1x Lanvin, 1x aqauscutum, a few CT and TML

During:

2x more shirts, lilac and blue pupstooth (both double cuff) £21 each, TML and CT
5x more undershirts £not much
2 more sets of cufflinks
so many more socks
1 more suit on the way, different shade of blue, TML again £200
1 casual suit jacket, Chester Barrie, £250
A few new ties

On hermes ties and belts... no. Well, yes, I want them, (regular belt, not the H), but the price isnt worth it until you hit 100k+. Better off with multiple belts/ties of a lower price level so you dont end up with a single nice belt and tie that you constantly bring out to try and impress.

Not sure why there’s all this talk surrounding Hermes ties, they cost about £140, just as Purple Label ones.

Because unless daddy is rich that is not affordable for a student

I think it's frequent in IB to come from a family that can spend 140 without worrying

so right, but its odd that most never seem to understand that these are indeed luxury goods and that there is a good argument to finding cheap quality substitutes. As much as I'd love all my shirts to come from Turnbull, I could buy 5 from tyrwhitt and have them dry-cleaned every 2 weeks for almost a year and still spend the same as 1 turnbull shirt in some cases. And youd almost certainly look better wearing a fresh shirt every day too!
