All praise is for Allah who has clothed me with this (garment) and provided it to me without any power or might from myself.

Dua for Wearing New Clothes
اَللّٰهُمَّ لَكَ الْحَمْدُ اَنْتَ كَسَوْتَنِيْهِ، اَسْاَلُكَ مِنْ خَيْرِهٖ وَخَيْرِ مَا صُنِعَ لَهٗ، وَاَعُوْذُ بِكَ مِنْ شَرِّهٖ وَشَرِّ مَا صُنِعَ لَهٗ
O Allah! All praise and thanks are for You. You are the One Who has clothed me with this. I ask You for its goodness and the goodness for which it was made, and I seek refuge in You from its evil and the evil for which it was made.
Allahumma laka al-hamdu anta kasawtaniihi. As’aluka min khayrihi wa khayri ma suni‘a lahu. Wa a‘udhu bika min sharrihi wa sharri ma suni‘a lahu.
