you look dirty you should use some hot water only to wash yourself.

I'd go no tuck. The shirt has a good shape when it's just sort of hanging.

I might just grab some 32s, but I dunno if I want to flip these just because I like the tight fit in some contexts. Case in point,

As an answer to the challenge in the Recent Purchases thread: Now I just have to wear some workwear later. Although I don't know if that up there really counts as gothninja. I leave that to the gothninja experts.

Dope. Who's the coat and jeans by? Good hair in the first pic too.

S never fits my shoulders. M is the best fit most of the time in store but my mom thinks the clothing will shrink too much after a few washes so she gets the large size :/

I'm 6' and 155lbs for the record.
38" chest measurement
31" true waist :/

Any constructive criticism is appreciated. Thanks guys!

Take your shirts to an alterations store in the mall and have them slimmed down on the sides. It shouldn't cost more than $30/shirt.

And tell your Mom a guy on the internet said that modern fabrics don't shrink that much. So stopping buying larges.

Coat is nom de guerre, which actually looks good a bit oversized and doubles as my overcoat for work over suits. The thing has to be up there among my favourite pieces I've ever owned, it looks good over almost anything. From FW08. Jeans are N&F skinny guys sized down, same as yesterday, and the shoes are Raf Simons astros in faded/cracked black patent leather.

Everyone hates on my hair around here so my solution was essentially to get some product and mess it up a bit when wearing SW&D fits vs. just side parting it for work.

Hmmm... got idea for somewhat ridiculous tucked-in shirt fit. Will attempt and post.

yeah not sure why i even considered it. actually i do, because i had originally left the shirt sleeves alone which messed with proportions in my opinion. once i flipped sleeves up it was settled, but i had tried the tuck to see if it fixed it. too much thought in just a pair of jeans and sneakers

edit: i would actually never wear this combination, i just wanted to check shirt, tucks, jeans, and did it all in one go.

don't really care du. not posting for your approval, just trying to contribute. reply if you want, not pressed to have the last word. i am dunzo.

Max, some Dior's stack better than others but yes they all stack nicely. It also depends on the type of shoes you wear. I find zip-ups more conducive to stacking, though.
