In need of new clothes I visited my haberdashery
The idea was to go in to see all that I could see.
A fine assortment of garments awaited me there
But, I found some items I wouldn’t wear on a dare.
There were silk shirts with splendid ties to match
They even had a fine assortment of silk and felt hats.
I was impressed by socks a gentleman found proper
Amazingly, they even had some held up by a garter.
As the assistant did the figuring I puffed on my cheroot
When he presented the total I asked, “Is this per suit?”

ReplyDeletein pursuit of the perfect suit, hopefully it was the total and not per suit :)
ReplyDeleteI hope you found what you needed. A very good angle on the problems of buying clothes.
