Iґm really sorry, it seems like I havenґt made sufficiently clear the question. Itґs not that
he works at C&A, he buys his clothes from this firm. For those suggesting Manufacturnaya fabrica I want to note that to me, as a native Russian, it sounds like sth
from before the Revolution. I suppose that only a native can help with this, so those who do not know the connotations should not bother unduly. Still, thanks to all who answered and the KudoZ goes to the fastest. Best regards, SalmoN

одет с иголочки
Тогда, пожалуй, наиболее подходящим было бы нейтральное русское выражение "одет с иголочки".
Другой вариант: он был одет добротно и со вкусом.
А если уж хотелось бы все же вспомнить фирму, то я бы сказала "одет в добротную одежду фирмы C&A", поскольку фирма эта славится не столько модностью, сколько высоким качеством и добротностью производимой одежды.
