Thought you were moving house?

Thought you were moving house?

I am, but it takes time to close down and get started the new place in my business...
Still an other month here in Stavanger, then two months in Latin America before my new life starts in Bergen. Insj Allah.

I may have a similar suit in H&S and have been wondering how to pair it as a 3 piece. Beautifully done.

@jcmeyer - great jacket, do you know what fabric has been used to make it?

Thanks! It's from the Holland & Sherry, Sherry Tweed bunch. According to Steed, the H&S rep told them my specific fabric isn't being made anymore but this one is super close: https://apparel.hollandandsherry.co...818041-sherry-tweed-brown-herringbone-58-inch

I held them side by side this past weekend and at quick glance you can't really tell the difference. The new version might have a bit more red and a bit less green. Either way, it's interesting because there's no actual brown thread. The base is black thread and the rest are all the colors that resolve to brown from any distance. Neat stuff.

I heard, you don't like cosplay here.
If so, don't look at the tommy gun.

The gun is fine--but what's up with that filter?

Another day, another vest.

@An Acute Style: Man, you look dapper, chapeau! I have a 1920ies lokking dark blue blazer with cream colored stripes I so long to wear, but it really takes guts these days to step out of the house with this garment (especially combining it with cream colored slacks and spectators).

It certainly attracts attention, even in a relatively sartorially sophisticated locale.
As others have pointed out, repetition/frequency helps as does not giving a darn, but for many that’s easier said than done.
If you enjoy anachronistic clothing, there might be suitable social occasions depending on where you reside.
