Question
What blessing is recited when wearing new clothing?
Answer
Shehechiyanu. Provided that it is expensive.
Source
In Orach Chaim, Siman 223, it is explained that one recites 'Shehechiyanu' and the blessing 'Who clothes the naked'. In practice, the custom is to recite only Shehechiyanu, and to have in mind in the morning when reciting the blessing 'Who clothes the naked' to exempt it.
