    Your thoughts on the Ventess Tux...

    My dinner clothes are all ventless. Side vents are OK. The bigger issue is notch lapels on dinner clothes. Notch is for daytime clothes and the office. A notch lapel on formalwear is an oxymoron.

    Do you own more than one Navy suit?

    I have a Lesser Tropical DB, with a vest, and for the winter Drapers 12oz in a herringbone, SB with a vest. For stripes I have a Smith 120s and Cashmere for the winter, and for Spring, Summer, Fall a vintage 10z narrow stripe. Both of those are 3 piece DB's. I have a bolt of navy flannel with a...

    Conservative Dressing- Done right

    I think Josh Cooper Ramo is maybe a more agreeable example. He wears Kiton exclusively.

    It's called sharkskin. "Pick by pick" is pedestrian.

    The Windsor knot really doesn't work with a knit tie.

    Unfunded Liabilities: a/k/a The Cloth Thread

     I never heard anyone either from a mill or retail call it pick-by-pick. I am used to a totally different lingo than most people. For example "nail head" pisses me off. I was taught to never use that term. Most people think a birdseyes, pin dot, and tickweave are all "nail heads." They are...

    Double Breasted suit

    A DB suit should always have pleats, and never belt loops, that will avoid it looking like a fashion piece.

     Don't listen to anything people say on a forum about a shirt fit.

    The colors didn't come out to well. But the pants are green, the PS is kind of green, I am not sure what color to call it but it has a white overplaid which didn't come out at all. The jacket is H. Lesser Tropical [French Navy]

    HOF: What Are You Wearing Right Now - Part III

     Almost all of my 15 suits are DB. I have 4 SB's. Trust me if you saw my entire face and over all appearance you would't think I was day under 30. I wear DB for a few reasons. OTR it get better patterns, full cut, I look older- which is something I need and don't need. Customers used to...

     -That is a basic PS fold, you'll find it on Brooks Brothers website, Flusser's books and most other style references to PS's. -Trust me, seeing him in person when he lifts his arm nothing will rise up above his head. That is a very high armholes and barely any shoulder padding. It's an...

    HOF: What Are You Wearing Right Now - Part III

     I know it is pretty basic but I am a believer in each item's color having a relationship with something in the outfit. The PS should relate to the shirt, and the tie should relate to the suit or everything else. I never match the tie and PS though, I'll try to post what I am wearing...

    Conservative Dressing- Done right

     Prince Charles would wear a striped or patterned shirt, these men wouldn't. They get clothes made that complement their attitudes and body's but they indulge in details (collar pins, DB opposed to SB).
