HOF: What Are You Wearing Right Now - Part III - Page 621

Despite my name I attend a southern school and know a thing or two about southern style. It's not so much the loudness but the way it doesn't work together. I recall at the Carolina cup, I wore a green seersucker blazer, Nantucket reds, with a yellow oxford and a madras bowtie. My belt was a needlepoint with different critters on it. The point is is that the very nature of the patterns dont work together. Specifically, patterns should be different sizes, and some patterns, like paisley, probably shouldn't get near other patterns at all. In this case your tie, belt, and pocket square clash horribly--and not in the good sense. In this situation you probably should have just worn the latest critter tie by Hermes/Ferragamo/Vineyard Vines/Southern Comfort, with that belt and a brighter pocket square.

Hi gentlemen.

First time posting in this thread, any comments will be welcomed. I am currently on vacation, so I am wearing this casual outfit just to walk around the city enjoying my free time without any stress whatsoever. Sorry for the quality, as I used the phone´s camera.

^ I like that mirror. Are you in your boxers?

Knot is 2x too big, and I am no fan of the extreme cutaway.

Of course he is. He said he's going casual today. Pay attention, Spoo.


+1 Knot looks even chunkier because it lacks a dimple.

Luckily for my (scarce) reputation I still do not dare to take pics of myself on my underwear. The pants are cotton Valentini Sartoria.

Hi,

You wear a tie when loafing around on vacation? cool!

Try a four in hand knot for it. The knot seems too large and too formal for my taste.

All else seems good!

Yes. Hit that knot with a shrink ray.

Morning ladies...

Restaurant Akelarre, San Sebastian, Basque Country, Spain, with the Bay of Biscay behind me

H&M linen sportcoat
Kent Wang shirt
Kent Wang bicolor knit tie
Kent Wang white cotton pocket square
Kent Wang mother of pearl cuff links

P.S. - Akelarre was the best meal of my life.

San Sebastian is a gem. The best city in the world for food, IMO. Book a table at Arzak if you can, it's completely unbelievable.

A plus IMHO. Love the interplay between the pants color and the blue lines in the jacket.

Warning: Spoiler! (Click to show)
Overall nice look, Kent. The shoulder line on the jacket isn't really clean, but for H&M, that's not too bad I'd say. Only other comment - straight TV fold for dinner at a restaurant? Loosen it up a bit!

I really like this CG - your namesake would be proud. I like how the starkness of the white shirt contrasts with the brighter/warmer tones of beige, tan and blue. In comparisont Kent is dressed very well but it all looks a bit pale and washed out with out that contrast or pop of colour somewhere.
