Sometimes, Paddington Bear needs to look nice, too

Cheapest Willy Wonka costume ever!
Rob F.says
What kills me, more than anything else, is the tie. Yeesh.
Domsays
Joker, a la Jack Nicholson?
TJsays
Joe, I saw these and almost emailed you a link.
daffysays
Well, at least “some” of the pants could work as colored chino. $29.99 chino/suit pants that only require machine wash instead of dreadful dry cleaning only… I can see some potentials in colors like “Red”.
Paosays
If that was only in a grey or navy… 80 dollars for a suit? I’d take it.
MisterSlipperysays
Its hard to believe this is really happening.
JRoksays
Nooooo waaaaaay! Turn it off. Turn it off! Turn it off!
Samaritansays
That turquoise one might look good if you it got bleached lightly. Maybe? These kinds of colors don’t work unless they’re sun-faded.
In case you want to collide #menswear with an OK Go music video…
AaronBushellsays
Oh. That’s just…I’m not sure what to say about that. It’s not good, that’s for sure.
AaronBushellsays
Actually, I’m thinking I will buy the green one and see if I can sneak into Augusta National next April.
jwetzsays
I like the suit. They, however, picked the worst colors ever.
Timsays
I saw these in Target last month and was not surprised to find that a month later, they’re still stocked up. I don’t see how anyone with (or without!) a sense of style would buy these? They look cheap and cartoonish.
Mike Nsays
No. Not sure what else to say.
AlwaysBeenTimsays
I dunno. I kinda like this. Don’t get me wrong, I’m way too old and too big to pull this off but if some young, smaller fella wants to go this route then bless his tiny, festive heart.
DJsays
the button stance is definitely too high. not sure if target is trying to bring in the budget-conscious menswear afficionado demographic, or (in a far more likely scenario) if these jackets will end up on some horrible teenagers in fedoras and huge neon plastic sunglasses.
Furious Stylessays
Finally the Wiggles have something to wear for formal events.
dennislsays
Maybe as a separate for a festive function. They’re so laughably colorful it kinda makes me want to wear it.
Greg_Ssays
And here I’ve been searching for an awkwardly proportioned suit in a variety of hideous colors!
dennislsays
Seriously, for the price, I’d wear this to a summer party.
BenRsays
In all seriousness, matching material does not make a suit. Look at the fly on those pants – those are jeans, not suit trousers.
Ridiculous as a suit, but I can definitely see the more adventurous among us making good use of these separates as separates.
BenRsays
The “blue bayou” color could be workable as a casual summer jacket…. not sure I’d wear any of the other colors.
Marshall Lillysays
Agreed. I’d pick up the turquoise one were it not for that issue.
Samual L Changsays
Finally, my friends and I will have costumes for the children’s show we’ve been producing in my basement! Thanks Target!
Jedsays
I picked up the pants in several colors as separates maybe a month ago. They’ve been working out great as a way of injecting some color into my summer outfits. No regrets on that purchase at all.
I actually picked up one of of the jackets to try it out but ended up returning it for a few reasons: the button stance was a little bit off, but also the buttons on the cuff are functional and the sleeves were a bit too long for me.
Ryan N.says
I’ve tried these on in-store, and as much as I want to like them, the fit is HORRIBLE. Absolutely nothing like the great-fitting Kensington (I know, it’s Merona, but), this jacket doesn’t fit anyone. Stance too high, functional cuffs reaching to the bottom of my fingers, even tailoring wouldn’t help these sad jackets.
Yellow would make a great “Day Man” costume, though.. 🙂
MattA Worldpeacesays
If only they had a baby blue one, I could live out my Dumb and Dumber formal dreams! Tell her I’ve got a rapist wit.
Jwsays
They actually have a very nice red one that I had to buy. Sadly its not depicted in the selections above.
I totally agree with you. The fit is wrong in all ways possible.
Butch_Zeesays
creepy.
Bookmansays
there are some fashion mistakes that are so bad, that I applaud them and look forward to seeing people wearing them. I know that is selfish and shallow…..but, watching the douche squad walking down the street with these things on will be the awesomeness…..free comedy…
Zachsays
The blue bayou is a decent color, but the rest are way too bright for suit jackets. As pants, though…
Holy S#!7…. i dare anybody to step out in the street in these hood classics. inexplicably unacceptable!
Chet "The Rocket" Steadmansays
This could make for a good “Nightman Cometh” Halloween costume.
Johnsays
Now I know where ‘The Man with the Yellow Hat’ from the Curious George books shops. Sweet!
DanPatrickFloressays
Yeah, it looks like something a hipster would wear to a wedding.
DanPatrickFloressays
Chances of that working are more like one in a million.
BenRsays
I are serious cat. This is serious thread.
Tomsays
I was actually looking for this link for a work project I’m working on. Haha, nice find. And I would totally wear the purple.
J.B.says
With all of the hurdles a product has to go through before it ever reaches the store shelves, this is what finds its way into the store?? I’d be very interested to see what other products were passed up so that these suits could have shelf space.
SolefulStrutsays
For shame. Typically everything Target carries with the Mossimo tag is thoroughly wearable. Is the “Black” line codename for Halloween?
Knowing a number of the designers for Target, I’d guess that they just don’t know any better. They’re all a bit…unusual. I’ve seen a few of them wear these to work in fact. Terrible.
trentsays
is it just me or is that a high button stance for a 2 button jacket? i thought it was a 3 piece at first
I’m tempted to get a purple one and a yellow one, cut them in half, sew them back together mismatched, and have the ultimate LSU game day tailgate outfit.
antonio mooresays
I can’t lol. That looks like something jonny depp would were in willy wonka.

oh my
Button stance too high for my tastes. Too bad, that’s a dealbreaker.
Mossimo or the new Walt Clyde Frazier line?
I guess it’s finally time the bright jacket/chinos trend has peaked.
Collaboration with Cedric the Entertainer?
When did “Skittles” start making clothing?

I wonder if you could make the top button roll-over to make it a one-button. I’m a shorter guy so that would work well with my proportions.
I’ve always dreamed of being an Easter egg.
it looks like i’ve got my costume for haloween this year, willy wonka. thanks target.
Granted I’m weird… but I’d rock an orange jacket with some dark pants…
It almost looks like you could do a 2-roll-1 with those buttons…
Target is just trying to reach out to the fraternities across America
I REALLY like the pants.
You lost me at “in all seriousness”
Burns my eyes…
I’d wear some of the colors on some days, but there’s a certain mood I’d have to be in. If only they didn’t look so cheap :/
The 80s are truly back.
I totally agree with you. The fit is wrong in all ways possible.

Dumb and Dumber vs Willie Wonka and the loser is…the person who wears it outside of October 31st.
Outside of dressing up as Willie Wonka or the characters from Dumb and Dumbers tuxes these are forbidden in my wardrobe.

These are amazing and ridiculous at the same time. I love it! Target is really pushing their ‘colors’ theme this year.
These may be more useful as fun ‘blazers’ than as actual suit jackets/separates.
