    Question regarding no-break pant length . . .

    This is right; no break is the best look ( at least for short guys like OP and myself), minimal break is 2nd best and high water pants are the worst. Get the trousers hemmed to no break on your lowest shoe.

    New chelsea shoes to wear with a suit, RM Williams?

    No fan of Cameron, but at least his suits fit! Rees-Mogg's gigantic double-breasteds are just as bad as Sunak's shrunken suits. Anyway, we are not debating the stylishness of politicians, but the appropriateness of footwear in British society. And Prime ministers are at the heart of that...

    New chelsea shoes to wear with a suit, RM Williams?

    I know it isn't in the first line of choices the way it supposedly is in Australia, but for one David Cameron, while in office, would wear chelseas with his suit if he was going anywhere the ground was likely to be less than pristine. And I think the public-school educated millionaire...

    New chelsea shoes to wear with a suit, RM Williams?

    Chelseas are fine to wear with a suit in the UK/Ireland, and I am told they are even more acceptable in Australia/NZ. Have no idea how they will be received in Norway, but I would imagine quite well.

    overcoat over fleece

    How about overcoats worn over down jackets?

    First corduroy suit, would brown or green be a better choice?

    That's a fantastic range of corduroy pieces! The first suit is the colour I think is most attractive, although I would go for single-breasted. If I was only getting a jacket this is definitely the colour I would go for, but for a suit I would be concerned about matching shoes. While it is almost...

    First corduroy suit, would brown or green be a better choice?

    I would sweat like aprisoner in the dock if I wore that in bed!

    OFFICIAL Simon Crompton thread (PermanentStyle.com)

    I'd agree with this. Simon's articles run away fast from value-for-money and his tone can be a little pompous, but he is welcoming and not sneery towards the less-rich and those who know little about clothes.

    First corduroy suit, would brown or green be a better choice?

    Why are you unsure about a jacket? Is it perhaps a little wintry a fabric for your neck of the woods?

    The Official Dieworkwear Appreciation Thread

    I see Derek now has received some push-back from Daniel Craig fans, and they are now on the receiving end of a lecture/thread. He reminds me of an argumentative Oxford don, who will subject any overheard or sotto voce comment to a full and rigorous analysis. His choice of photographs continues...

    First corduroy suit, would brown or green be a better choice?

    That is...an unusual version of the corduroy suit! Is the dugdale going to be a more conventional suit layout?

    First corduroy suit, would brown or green be a better choice?

    I had one years ago, I thought at the time the jacket looked good with jeans if it was sunny/bright but not too hot. Looking at pictures from then now the overall look was a bit too Jeremy Clarkson. I am sure some of the more advanced dressers here hav done it succesfully. Maybe with white...

    First corduroy suit, would brown or green be a better choice?

    Almost exactly what i was thinking, except I prefer a darker brown than tan. Agree that a cord suit would be a seasonal alternative to linen, but I think linen is not as easy to break up. Corduroy suits seem easier to wear than tweed, and linen suits are more interesting than chino-like cotton...

    First corduroy suit, would brown or green be a better choice?

    I can kind of see what you mean, but I think it is fine with an unusual suit like that one to have the shirt and tie stand out a bit less. For a mid-gray worsted suit you would want either or both to be more interesting. I think a darker brown is better for jackets and a lighter brown better...
