Nope. Well, maybe if he's gay. Otherwise, anything mentioned above works just fine.

Uniqlo has nice basic trousers, sweaters, and button-down shirts. The brand tends to be proportioned for Asian bodies, shorter and trimmer than the average American, so he might find it fits him well.

It’s not “preppy” in the Ralph Lauren, Vinyard Vines sense, but he could easily put together an office wardrobe appropriate for a junior employee.

If he does his own laundry, the bonus is that their clothes wash very well. No dry cleaning, no ironing needed. Pleats and collars stay crisp out of the tumble dryer.

Honestly Children’s Place chinos are great and go up to an 18-20 (including slim sizes). They fit true to the size chart. I order them on Amazon. My teen sons are very slim and these fit them really well.

i would get golf style pants for comfort and easy care. you can get these anywhere from walmart to nordstrom. will solid polos work for tops? again golf style onnes are comfy and easy care, otherwise, long sleeve shirts. you can get these anywhere including tjmaxx and marshalls.

Vineyard vines. He can probably fit in the larger kid sizes.

With a 28 inch waist, American eagle is your friend for pants.

I would suggest khaki pants with (brown or burgundy) penny loafers and a brown leather belt. For a shirt, either an OCBD (always long sleeves) or a patterned button down shirt with long sleeves.

Try Nordstrom or Macy's or a Rockport outlet store for the penny loafers. If there are some suitable Rockport loafers, then those might be more comfortable. No-iron khaki pants and the brown leather belt from Lands End. OCBD from Lands End. Patterned button down probably from LL Bean.

Mine is the same height but weighs more due to weight lifting. He mostly wears chinos, khakis, with polos or button downs. He orders his pants online because he is a 29 waist. He will buy pants at Old Navy, Kohls, Macys. He buys tops at the consignment store I took his clothes to as a kid/teen. Lots of them still have tags on them. Vineyard Vines, pullovers etc.

Man here. I'd suggest Nordstrom, Zara, and Armani Exchange. Express Men was good but they went out of business.

For dressy casual basic stuff, Old Navy, Gap, and J. Crew may work also. Just stores like Zara and Armani Exchange tend to have more slim-fit stuff. However, this year the fashion designers seem to be into baggy for men, so even at those places it can be a little disappointing.

My young adult son is autistic and does not do his own shopping. I am posting on the Teen forum because he's 5'5", 100lbs, and his waist is 28 inches. He needs a new dressy casual sort of wardrobe for an office job. Where can I look?

Thank you.
