Bad news, SFers, it's black.

Supermarket giant Asda has launched what it claims is Britain's cheapest suit.

Customers can now pick up the suit for just £19 as part of Asda's George clothing range. Normally the jacket would retail at £19 and the trousers at £6.
But for one week the supermarket is giving away the trousers for free when customers buy a jacket.

George's managing director, Angela Spindler, said: "It is not a stitch-up I assure you. You really can be a cut above the rest with change from £20 thanks to George.

"The reason why we can deliver such great value is simple, we buy in bulk and pass the cost savings that this brings direct to customers."

The machine-washable, black, single-breasted suit is on sale now.

Looks like it might be pretty good for those of us with uneven shoulders.

Really. Apparently, severe scoliosis is a requirement for male models....

Well, they're cheaper than a pair of painter's overalls...
