Have got a job interview on Monday (fingers crossed) and bought a new suit (100% wool). There's nothing looks worse than a new suit. How do I break in the suit jacket so it doesn't look like I just bought it?

Walmart or Target

Good luck with your interview. The only thing I can suggest is that you wear it, even if it is just around the house. That ususally nakes things look a little less new, and it will feel more comfortable.

Break it in?

Is it made of horse hair? Lol.

Good luck with the interview. :)

If it was a proper fit in the first place, you wouldn't have to break it in!

All new suits look 'too new', as if they've just come off a hanger. How can I fix that?

I look terrible in a suit! I either look as if a barrister has just bought me a suit for a court appearance or I've spent the night in a bus shelter.

Please ABers. Help me look human on Monday!

Hang it in your bathroom to steam it
