    Where is best for White Tie (the dress code) hire in the UK (North West especially)

    I wouldn't have it this way if I could! White tie looks nice, but, I think it lessens the seriousness of something that should be a discussion about the work. Anyway, my PhD is in The Netherlands, at a University which is overly worried about appearing too young - so White Tie is in the defence...

    Where is best for White Tie (the dress code) hire in the UK (North West especially)

    Hi, I have to wear white tie to my PhD defence. I will be buying a shirt, MTM, shoes and the bow-tie myself. However, that still lives me with the trousers, evening tailcoat and white waistcoat. The main thing is that it fits well - I was wondering if there are any recommendations in the UK for...

    What are the best t-shirt printing techniques and companies?

    Hi, I want to make a t-shirt for my girlfriend's birthday based on some high-quality images. This isn't meant to be a novelty item, but instead a part of well-thought out gift I've put some effort into, so I'd like to know what the options are. So, does anyone know what the main techniques used...

    Ask a Question, Get an Answer - ask all quick questions here

    Hi, I have lived in The Netherlands for over a year now (coming from the UK). So, I am quite used to being able to buy some okay fitting tees and stuff from Uniqlo etc. Unfortunately, clothes aren't people's biggest concern here (neither is food, but that's another matter). I was just wondering...

    Aquascutum in receivership

    I'm surprised so many are sad of their demise, I have found the cut to be very off. Very boxy and unflattering. Similarly priced Hackett on the other hand seems to have got the cut right.

    Shoe math--I think we might all be wrong.

    I don't care for the expensive > less expensive argument (either way). But just wanted to add that for me black shoes have been the least economical, once they're scuffed they look completely stupid. Brown shoes seem to be able to take a bit of scuffing but black I've always just got these white...

    Dyeing Clothes (to cover up a stain)

    Summary, I want to dye some Riviera Trousers from Hackett. They're cotton in mint green and I would like to dye them navy probably to cover up some whiskey stains. Longer story: I bought them on Saturday and stupidly wore them to a bar the same day. Anyway, a friend of mine decided to pick up...

    Ask A Question, Get An Answer... - Post All Quick Questions Here (Classic menswear)

    I bought a cream v-neck sweat from Uniqlo. I have bought previous sweaters from them before so didn't think to try it on. Unfortunately, because this is a lighter colour my shirt underneath shows through (especially the buttons!). Is there any use for this sweater whatsoever? It looks...

    Marijuana, do you partake?

    I'm not fond of it, I find it makes me feel down. At best it's mediocre. I just don't see the point. I'd much rather take MDMA, Speed or Ket. All three of which seem far more popular at the parties I go to.

    "Vegetarian" Business/Formal Shoe Options

    So, about three months ago I became a vegetarian. Various reasons, the usual (is it right to be speciest/ecology/taking a life/etc.). Bittt of a pickle, both my work pairs of shoes (Crockett & Jones) now need resoling. You know, I'm not wearing rubber soles to work, that would be mental. Are...

    Suiting fabrics - does brand matter? Advice please.

    I was browsing fabrics in picadilly today. A 150s plain wool navy from Scabal cost £750 for 3 metres. Yet another brand, also 150s was more like £150. So I would like some advice. Does the brand really matter? If it does, I would like a 10oz wool or wool/cashmere blend in navy - any brand...

    Best bespoke off the row? London obv.

    Which, just to clarify, means that they produce the suit from cloth that you supply yourself. They do stock the fabric I'm using ordinarily but I can get a discount if I order direct from the producer and Graham Browne are happy for me to do this. What a nightmare styleforum is, now I'll be...

    Best bespoke off the row? London obv.

    RLBL is fully canvassed... Mine isn't. From what I've heard about George, while he's cheap as far as bespoke goes apparently he's not that flexible as far as deviating from his house cut goes. I went to Graham Browne a couple of weeks ago for my initial measurement for a tweed suit and...

    Best bespoke off the row? London obv.

    Hey, I fancy getting a blazer. I was looking in Ralph Lauren and looking at the Ralph Lauren prices and thinking, even Polo label at £900 - surely I should just get something made? I considered Steed MTM but don't fancy yet another half-canvassed suit (a black label ralph lauren is already...

    Boggi

    I bought four pairs of formal trousers for work. Yeah, they're not great quality, stitching on one belt loop has come undone and the buckle tab as well on another pair. To compare, a Hackett pair which cost 40 more have had no such problems and I prefer the fabric.

    Russian Mathematician recluse turns down $1 million prize

    His intention for turning it down was to not be recognised for something he considers as trivial. By not turning it down though, he is in the news far more than he would be for just accepting it and solving a very hard problem. I am somewhat glad for this, maybe it will encourage a few to read...
