HOF: What Are You Wearing Right Now - Part IV (starting May 2014)

[heldentenor]

Apparently the brown gunclub was the discovery of 2015. Beautiful jacket, Mr. Six.

Sorry if i didn't comments fit everytime, but there is so much wonderful outfit here.

One sweet sweet combo.

I just bought a length of WA dk brown houndstooth with red deco, but I like yours better.

Kent Wang mid grey tweed unstructured suit
Kent Wang linen/cotton shirt
Kent Wang brown cashmere tie
Kent Wang Lod Mosaic silk pocket square
Kent Wang gold tie clip
Kent Wang handgrade penny loafer

This is a bit more casual, but, hey, I've got a tie on. (Collar on the shirt is a totally unlined, old-school USA-made BB, so it's a bit rumpled and I kind of like it like that.)

Cool tie. Nice madder-like colors.

Thank you @Sander . Me think too it would work fine with sky oxford. I have a yellow small gingham in production ment for this suit. Exited and will collect in few weeks.

Sounds like it would be very nice with this tie as well.

rainy weather today:

Really nice.

First post. Be Gentle please.

As others have said, the velvet is out of context here; trousers seem to be of a really light fabric too, no? That would make the contrast even stronger.

Would like to solicit some help here...I typically do not wear sweaters under my jackets, just a personal preference. Tried this out today and was initially happy but now that I'm seeing it something seems off. Is it the borders of the cardigan or is it just a bad color for the rest of the fit (it's a dark navy though it appears black in the photo)?

I think it's mainly the border of the cardigan (just becomes too busy in the center), and the fact that it's very dark doesn't help. A plain forest green could have been very nice.

Deal with it.

The lapel I can deal with easily, the tie not so much.

That's a nice suit and a nice shirt, but I think they're not so nice together.

Great fit. The linen in the shirt would bother me personally, but it's not like anyone could see it had you not mentioned it. The shade of grey is perfect.

Experimenting with fabrics today. Wearing my Ralph knitted tie, Savile Row Company Cotton Shirt and Spitalfields Velvet blazer.

Happy New Year, gentlemen. Some great looks to kick off 2016 above.

Yesterday was my first day in the office since 23 December and it all came rather hard.

Things were helped a bit by the lovely crisp, frosty morning and some new pieces (thanks to Mrs K and Christmas) including: Harvie and Hudson shirt, tortoise and hare silver cufflinks and Bresciani woollen OTC socks.

Nice Hermes Tie. I have the same in pink

Subzero and the dog froze to ice as I took it for a walk. Have to wait for spring to see if he revitalizes.

This suit really floats my boat

 

[upr_crust]

It's warmed up a little bit here in NYC, so no need to drag out the camel's hair coat again - for a while at least. Something simple for midweek.

Suit - New & Lingwood
Shirt & Tie - BB
Collar pin - Cable Car Clothiers, SF
Cufflinks - Benson & Clegg, London
Braces - Paul Stuart
Shoes - Florsheim Royal Imperial (Magnanni)
Overcoat - BB
Scarf - Crombie
Hat - Scala

Nice Hermes Tie. I have the same in pink

Thanks Mr E. I think it is my current favourite Hermes. Mrs K loves animals and each Christmas in recent years she has bought me one of their ties depicting one type of animal or another - this one from a couple of years back

A little more than half of that.

False.

At the bare minimum you are spending $125 to $150 for a quality belt that should last you a minimum of a few years. And many are spending much more than the $190 on a single belt...and belts can literally cost into the thousands.

So the $190 for the braces remains well within the acceptable price range.

/\ can you pass me the Kool Aid?

I think the colored border makes it a bit busy, especially since nothing about it ties into the rest of the rig. The base color is also a bit dark for the rest of the rig. So, both.

The shirt strikes me as potentially a bit dressy for that (awesome) tweed – better an oxford cloth or something, maybe a tattersall with the solid tie.

I'd also argue that there isn't quite room for a sweater under that jacket. It looks a hair tight over it.

 

[Claghorn]

Sick. Cold.

Hate wearing ties when I'm sick.

Spoiler

My colds are generally nasty for about a day. Hopefully will be back to tie wearing tomorrow.

 

[DavidLane]

Lots of green today. Thoughts on the square? I don't like that the pattern is similar in scale to the check of the sport coat.



Best,
