    On maintaining a round shirt collar

    Call me a nitpicker, but I cannot stand it when my shirt collars, having lived on a hangar for a little while, become squished and develop a bend on either side.

    Suit jacket with chest buttonholes on both sides

    I saw jacket with chest buttonholes on both sides. There were two buttons, attached to each other, functioning like a cufflink, to connect them. The design seemed highly alternative and nonstandard, but I realize now it might actually more old fashioned - many military uniforms apparently have...
