X Factor Fashion available at Burton
You couldn’t escape the X Factor last weekend, and a lot of the chatter related to the styling of the contestants. From Amelia Lily’s pink hair, Mischa’s newspaper dress to Frankie’s guyliner, there was some pretty weird styling on display. So thank goodness for the suave image of the guys from ‘The Risk’ and for the sadly departed James Michael, who both looked great on the night.

Whether it be for work, job interviews, weddings, special occasions or just for those special moments when you feel like making the effort, a suit is an essential part of a man’s clothing collection. And yet suits can be a troublesome item to buy. You want the Saville Row/Ozwald Boateng perfect fit, but without that jaw dropping price tag. You want something that looks smart all day long, rather than a suit that becomes creased as the day progresses.
