HOF: What Are You Wearing Right Now - Part II - Page 2350  

Great look all around. Fresh. Just in time for Spring. Now if only this weather would cooperate.

First fit on here in a while. I've been hanging out with the cool kids on the otherside of the playground, and only been popping back for the odd catchup.








(sorry for the poor quality pics).

No, I am not in college. I have read about the Jimma region before. That's very cool about your grandmother.

Good Lord, you are like a new person! I approve. Is it my imagination or is that suit slimmer in the leg than some of your others? It seems to fit you better.

^ Is it just me or is something seriously wrong with the shoulders on the guy on the left in ToiletDucks pic? CRUSTY : WOW!!! Looking good. Nice job on the tuneup.

Looks nice, MoK.

Well done, you are transformed

You certainly look strikingly different! I think it's a positive change overall, but never really minded the old look. That jacket really does seem tight across the chest; not only are the lapels bowing out, but that's also causing the jacket below the button to pivot inwards by way of compensation for the forced movement above, causing the fronts to overlap. At least, that's the visual impression being created. Great to have you back. A beautiful - if still cold - sunny Monday. Cold enough to justify buttoning up a 3pc before going out for those who are displeased by the configuration below. On a visit to the dry-cleaners to drop off a couple of suits, I was advised by a likeable (and clearly knowledgeable from the brief conversation we had) fellow who was dropping off what seemed to be Liberty tie, that I should have brightened up the look with a stronger choice of tie. Sadly, I didn't have time to discuss it further, as I was en route to an appointment. Thoughts?

Hiya! My first post here in WAYWRN, and also just slowly discovering my interest in men's fashion, so please be tolerant if I'm making any amount of elementary faux-pas here. At the same time, please don't hold back with constructive criticism, I'm trying to learn here. Apologies for the weird camera noise going on in the second picture, my camera is crap, but I included the picture anyway to get a better view of the hat.

Crusty: the new look is great. I, for one, thought the old look was fine, but bring on the new. I agree with Holdfast re the fit of the suit. HF, that guy was right about the tie. I love the suit and think it would be complemented by a strong color. MoK, good to see you again!

You look much younger Crust. Anyway, I have a feeling Nii's gonna say something about the quarters of your jacket being closed, if I've got him somewhat figured out.

Thank you one and all. It is still very strange for me not to have facial hair (my chin gets cold easily outdoors, and yes, spring is slow arriving in NYC, though chronologically, it is still winter for a couple of more weeks).

It seems that I've gone from boxy to a tad too fitted - the jacket is as holdfast and philosophe noted, pulling a bit across the chest. As I am trying to reduce weight, I will hold off on trying alterations to the jacket unless it becomes clear that I can't get any smaller.

Today's suit is a BB Fitzgerald, which is a much more fitted cut than the BB Madison that I wore on Friday. (As it was, Friday's suit needed alterations before I'd have bought it - it was much too boxy as it came off the rack - it was only the fitter at One Liberty Plaza who convinced me that he could make it work.)

Duly noted, and if nii makes such observations, they would be accurate, from what my morning photos would seem to show.

What are the chances that MW or Moores are selling such an obscure type of jacket for a suit?
