I bought a Bonders suit from a Goodwill type store. Is it supposed to be a good brand?
I needed some new interview apparel and really couldn't afford to spend a lot of money on something new. Since I can't find anything about it on the web, I assume that they are out of business and the suit is older. I just wondered.

1. If it looks good on you, why worry about the designer. n/t

2. True
It is a classic women's jacket and long skirt set. I paid $10 for it. It was by far the best interview type outfit that was there.
It just made me wonder because a friend and I were talking about that store, which I had not been in, and she thought that it was mostly 10 year old Walmart clothes. I guess that I would have bought it anyway if it was. I just wondered if anyone knew.

3. If you feel good in it and the legs and sleeves are not too long or too short
then it it will be excellent for an interview but you may want to have it dry cleaned immediately given the problem of bed bugs. These days all clothes should be laundered before bringing them into one's home.

4. As long as it doesn't have an aft draft, it's good.
