    Flannel, wool-cotton blend

    Vyella (a wool cotton blend) has been around as a shirting fabric for a long time. While it's great for shirts , baby garments and the like, I wouldn't advise it for other garments.

    What's the exact, proper name for these boots?

    Ridiculous.

     Yep. I detect some chain yanking going on.

    Salary vs Suit prices

     Sorry, didactic teenagers sometimes get to me. Clothing has both a situational and a purely aesthetic aspect. So depending on the situation, I may be wearing a charcoal suit or in antoher situation a tweed one. So I'm not denying that there is a necessity to "look good to others". What I am...

    I've been here a good deal longer than you, boyo. Better sign off, your momma's calling.

     Geez- And here I am thinking about something like this: It's more fun to make fashion, than follow it.

     I think that for some of us what's going on with fashion is much less influential that you think: Let's look at Reevolving's list: Giant lapels - Proportional for me, may be too big for someone else Gorge at your chest - gorge height is driven by the relative length of your torso and legs...

    All suits are the same

    We have a winner. The obvious rigidity of some posters plays out as a promulgation of "universal Rules" that have no relation to reality. Cothing choice is both situational and aesthetic. If you satisfy situational requirements and aesthetic sensabilities, you're well dressed. Point being there...

    Is to possible to get your suit/sport jacket deconstructed?

    My understanding is that shoulders are the one thing that really can't be "altered" in RTW. It may be better to try for something that fits in the shoulders and then let the rest out, if possible. If it's just overpadded, that's easy but if they're too big that's problematic. I'll gladly be...

     That, my friend, sucks. You have my sympathies.

    All suits are the same

    I'll submit to you that there is a good deal of latitude still without being "too gaudy, flashy, edgy, or tasteless" . Then again, as you say, I do not work where you do (I hope the pay is worth the stress to you). That said, neither do a lot of other people who take a path of bland mediocrity...

    Dress shirt colors not allowed after labor day?

    +1 I'm a big fan of "winter whites" so you're preaching to the choir on that one. If you weren't suppossed to wear white pants in the winter then why does H&S sell a 17oz white flannel? :satisfied:

     Believe it. My lapel width is based on my face and shoulders, as is my tie width. I get pleats becuuse I like them, I don't like skinny pegged pants so I don't order them to be cut that way. etc. Yes it's a lounge suit, but it's porportional to me not to what ever is the rage this month. To a...

    Dress shirt colors not allowed after labor day?

    Women weren't supposed to wear white shoes after labor day. This seems like some sort of false extension of that "rule".
