HOF: What Are You Wearing Right Now - Part III

[eviltimeban]

Today's look. Serious business. Haha

While I prefer a wider spread collar, that suit is fantastic. Deets?

Actually, I like the collar angle here, as I think it beautifully reflects the gorge of the jacket.

Different strokes, I suppose.

Aw, you guys!

Is that the soft/napped brushed silk (not sure of the correct fabric name) one?

Spoiler: Warning: Spoiler!

I think I've actually tried it on; you know me too well. It's pretty fly but didn't fit me all that well. But I did like it.

Mind you, I wasn't really sure what to wear with it. Jeans, I figured, plus slim black chelseas and maybe a harrington or leather jacket? Or pale grey trousers, and black or burgundy loafers and a solid mid-grey jacket? Trouble is, I don't own any of the above, bar the jeans. I dig wild shirts like that in summer, where almost all of them go well with off-white trousers & something like light brown loafers. But those aren't summer colours.

Yeah, you can tell I liked the shirt enough to actually think through all the above...

thats the one. i actually quite like it.

I would've bought it on the spot and shipped it to you but I think instead of wearing it as a shirt, I think you'll make a 6 fold tie out of it and wear it as a tie.

The suit is Ermenegildo Zegna, the Milano cut.

The shirt is Tom Ford, and is the least spread of any I own. I do generally side with you, I like a nice wide spread. But we have to change it up every once in a while.

Very nice look..very elegant

Cheers Gianni (and others).

 

[Murlsquirl]

Bravo everyone (almost)...bravo. That is all.

I imagine this jacket is very cool IRL. But the scale of the pattern is almost the exact same of the tie, and very close to the shirt. If you are going to with a busy jacket like this, try to tone down at least one of the other items, or else make sure the scales are varied.

And yes, brown/burgundy shoes are the way to go there. I find I only wear black shoes with grey pants or with blue/grey suits these days.

Yeah, the pics don't do the jacket justice. It's got a red windowpane too, which is harder to capture on camera. I'll keep that in mind for when I wear it again, probably next week!

I'll tone it down next time. Maybe a plain burgundy tie or such.

Four pattern bingo. Maybe a snow day tomorrow.

In light of this week's Friday challenge, this is probably the most FU I can do. Not a particularly loud pattern, but a three-piece tweed suit is always a bit FU these days.....

Spoiler: Warning: Spoiler!

I now really enjoyed the idea of 3pc brown herringbone tweed suiting.
