    Suit fit critique - okay for interview?

    Sorry about the crappy pics. I need to replace my blackberry. I think the suit fits pretty well overall. It's a tad shorter than I prefer, but I think it's okay. I plan on having the sleeves lengthened 1/4". I can't tell if it's pulling in the back or if it's just wrinkled due to being packed...

    How can I make this sportcoat fit better?

    I bought this off of B&S recently. It's PRL that has been previously altered. It seems that the alterations were not done well because the fabric seems to bunch at the bottom near the vents and around the armpits. Is there anything I can do to make this fit better or should it go on ebay? Thanks...

    Crockett & Jones Hayling

    Anybody know where I can find a pair? It would be a great S/S shoe. Also, how does this shoe fit? It's on the 366 last.

    Linen suit + wool tie: is this a no-no?

    I'm looking for a tie to wear with my khaki linen suit, and I want something with a little texture. I've found some nice wool ties, but i'm not sure if this is acceptable or not. If there were some more of those raw silk Pantas, that would be perfect.

    Interview attire for corporate position at clothing company

    How would one dress for this? I saw a position for a distribution analyst at J-Crew a while back and considered applying. I was Industrial Engineering undergrad, so it's a pretty good fit. Anyway, back to the interview. Would you do standard interview attire, or would you add a little...

    interesting WSJ article about dressing up(or not)

    I apologize if this has already been posted, but I didn't see it. As dining rooms fill with T-shirt- and Converse-clad social networkers, is dressing up the new way to stand out? http://online.wsj.com/article/SB1000...629008064.html

    steel toe guards - when to install?

    Noob question, I'm not even sure if this is what they are called. Anyway, at what point in the life of a shoe do you want to get these installed? This photo has them installed before even being worn. So does this mean I should go get them installed on all of my decent shoes? The reason i'm...

    DB fit critique

    I bought this RLPL DB off of B&S for a steal. It's a 42L. I normally where a 42R, but i've never tried on RLPL before. Do you guys think it's doable? If I decide to keep it I plan on taking off 2 inches of length, taking out some shoulder padding, and swapping the buttons with nickel blazer...

    what type of brogueing is most formal? least?

    Just in general i'm curious, but also specific to the shoes I own. I have a pair of burgundy shell cordovan AE MacNeils and a pair of black AE Sanfords. Obviously the black is more formal than the burgundy, but what style is more formal? How about with wingtips versus longwing and half-brogue.

    Allen Edmonds Shell Cordovan

    Does AE make good shell cordovan shoes for the price or are there other brands I should be looking at around the $500-600 mark? I'm thinking about getting the MacNeil in shell cordovan.

    How should a trench fit?

    I'm looking to buy a trenchcoat, but i'm not sure what size to get. I have a 43" chest, so i'm thinking about getting a size 42 which is actually 46" around. Thoughts?
