    bill, you need to get a loud patterned jacket. Something really F.U.. That's inspired! And, if he were to get those rawhide buttons put on his FU jacket, he could also show how his tailor boned him.

    Nevermind your taste in clothes, you really are an odious creature. I believe if you are going to do something, you should do it well.

    Bill, stuff looks great, not a fan of "fun" linings though. Please post fit pics. Nothing "fun" about those linings

    Balmoral boots with a suit?

    I'll get some at the weekend. They were subs at the C&J sale - was the only ones there. I was quite lucky I think. The people at C&J may feel the exact same way.

    Do you like cutaway collars?

    Exhibit A is really the class of the lot here, but I wouldn't consider it a cutaway. It's interesting that everyone is slamming the extreme cutaways in D and E (a la Keaton collar) because a a year or two ago everyone was all gaga over them. I don't have any of those, and they are kind of an...

    what's the real purpose of half lined? i don't get it. In his case, it would appear to be a hedge against appalling tastes in color/pattern That patterned lining is very Holliday & Brown. Do you mean, Holiday Inn?

    Sartorial mythbusting

    I am wearing pants that are about as tight as that portly fellow's stripped suit. ******* looks huge in them. I wanted you guys to know because I'm a classless homosexual-in-denial who doesn't understand how dressing like you're a 90s British I-Banker going to Vegas can be considered "upper"...

    I-gent special. Drapers five star 11 oz fresco. 6x2 DB, patch pockets, light horn buttons, half-lined with tie silk. I have pants in the same fabric from Ambrosi if I wanted to wear as a suit. It may please you to know that I am giving up on the Fresco warnings. I remember a sociology lecture...

    What to wear with these shoes

    Well, I could still return them. What don't you like about them? They seem pretty interesting to me. You mean they vendor would actually take these back? I would assume they've been trying to sell these since 1977. The toes are already curled off the ground and they havent ever been worn?

    Nice waist suppression! Pfft, dog boy is being kind, that's a shot of me before I started dating a girl whose family owns several bakeries. Might say I stepped in honey with that one...or, at least jelly filling. Ordinarily I would've actually had a jelly mustache but I used my pocket square to...

    You actually leave the confines of your bunker and spend time in the real world? What a thought... BTW I grabbed a photo of you in the same elevator from the security feed. Nino cuts a fine suit. I was performing my famous "string dance" here.

    Brown on tan glencheck 13 oz tweed from the vintage vault. 3R2, patch pockets, half-lined with burgundy silk. I saw a lady in the elevator today wearing the same fabric with a matching skirt and a burgundy silk blouse. What are the odds? Do you ever wear your hair in a bun?

    Yes, in my haste of taking the photos I buttoned the wrong button. And you wanted us to see those spiffy buttons, you little Dickens You know...they look a bit like they were fashioned from a rawhide bone

    You missed my point .. .why even look for it? Because like all disciples of Manson, he keeps a dossier and pretends he doesnt care. It's a cult thang. At least put the link in from here! We shouldn't spoil dog boy's moment to show us his inconsistently made and expensive stuff.

    What to wear with these shoes

    I have a bad habit of buying things that look cool in a vacuum, but don't go with my wardrobe and they end up at Goodwill. I got these Generic Man shoes from Gilt. They have me intrigued, but I'm not sure what to match them with. Suggestions? I think that donating these to good will could...

    Do you like cutaway collars?

    Should've known cutaways would be far in the lead; on a forum where balmoral boots are considered normal, even stylish.

    Balmoral boots with a suit?

    Urban dictionary's entry on 'suited and booted' By that definition, I should be wearing them

    Balmoral boots with a suit?

    I was always under the impression that wearing boots with a suit is fine. Hence the old term 'suited and booted'. Actually that is a contraction of 'Wear balmorals with a suit and make every observer boot".
