    Best rollneck sweater ever

    In the last episode of the Netflix series Queen's Gambit, one of the male characters wears a white, complexly-woven turtleneck sweater. I cannot find a picture anywhere on the net, but if there is any crew that would know which one it is, it would be here. Please share if you know. Thanks.

    Shrinking cashmere sweater (safely)

    I have an older cashmere sweater that is great quality--no pilling, soft--but has stretched out because of the loose weave. I would be much happier if it was a size smaller all around. If I put it in hot water will it felt up or just contract? What is the best way to shrink it and maintain...

    Does Belvest Make a Low-End Suit

    Bought a "Belvest" suit from Yoox at a what should be a very low price for the brand, but I am wondering if they make a low quality entry line? Got the suit and the buttonholes are machine made, there is no pick stitching and the only thing saying "Belvest" is a hanging tag. However, the cuffs...

    Hangover 3 Henley

    I was dragged to the movie Hangover 3 and locked onto Bradley Cooper's black henley shirt as being a great piece to have. Then it became a gag in the movie. One of the characters kept asking if it was from Diesel. Figuring it was a product placement I looked on the Diesel website, but its not...

    BB Milanos: A garment-dyed cautionary tale

    I had been pretty happy with my BB Milano summer chinos. The only hitch was the length. After wearing them for a while I decided they were a tad short. I thought there was no problem since there was plenty of material in the hem. But when the tailor returned them I found myself with thin...

    Boglioli K Jacket vs. "Coat"

    I have in hand two odd sports jackets from Boglioli--One is a K. Jacket, the other is a "coat" model. Frankly, I cannot identify a difference (other than the material). I have seen more variance within the K. Jacket line (having tried on several) than I see between the two I have now. Does...

    How to keep off-white shoe off-white

    I am thinking of buying an ice white buck and am wondering how to keep it that color. A chalk bag will make it white white. I am worried I am just inviting disappointment. Thanks in advance for advice.

    Alternative fibers

    I have noticed a few jackets online that have either bamboo or abaca as their primary fiber. What is your experience with these materials vis-a-vis wool, linen or silk? How do they hold their shape, wrinkle, clean, feel, etc.?

    How to take care of cotton and Linen jackets

    I am contemplating the purchase of a linen and a cotton sport coat, both well made. But I realize I really don't know how to economically wear them. In the past I tolerated a fair amount of wrinkling, but not a mess. So I sent my linen suit off to the cleaner for regular pressing. But can I...
