If I won this comp I'd get clothing in the widest range of possible sizes and donate it all to charity (assuming the rules allowed for that). There are plenty of people out there who are just getting out of vocational ed, shelters, etc., who need office pants and shirts for interviews and jobs - I wonder how KC would feel about an unanticipated donation?


FTFY. Sorry, I couldn't help myself.

In all seriousness, though, this is a very good idea. I know there are specific charities to clothe women attempting to enter the work force after an impoverished hiatus, I would hope that there are similar ones for men.

A bit of advice. The next time you get interviewed, preface the Q&A by telling the reporter to phrase all of his/her questions in a form where you can give yes or no answers. You, as a lawyer, should know how that works, no?

I bet over 75% of the readers and contest contestants buy KC.

Don't confuse SF with being above trends and fashions.

I rarely pick up Esquire, but when I have over the past couple years, I haven't seen much that wouldn't float here.

There was also of plenty of SF-style square toe shoe bashing.
