meh. i'm a bit torn on this one. on the one hand, it does look good on Moo. on the other, it looks like an oversized, overpadded jacket would look.

As an FYI, there is maybe 1/4" of room between my actual shoulders and the seams. Probably more like 1/8".

maybe its just the way the sweater is sitting, because it looks WAY too wide on you.

Seriously though; my guess is that washing raw denim frequently does improve its lifespan.
As you can see from NOBD's APCs you will still get some decent fades even if you wash frequently.
Nothing as extreme as this though.

 

Can a similar effect be achieved for washed denim?

Casual day at the office.. a bit chilly out side so went with the turtle neck and dress pants with dress shoes..to brave the slight chill had on my warm brown, double breasted pea coat/ Top coat.

 

 

Turtle Neck: Brooks Brothers Black Fleece

 

Coat: Billy Reid

 

Pants: Suit Supply

 

Shoes: Cordwainer

 

Watch: Vintage Swiss Army.

 

Happy middle of the week everyone!

You obiously are not, but the turtleneck makes you look fat.
You have a big head and the turtleneck emphazises it, which is not a good thing for your build imo.

To a much lesser extent. I bought these washed (evenly, so no fading). They've turned lighter and you can see some fading, but not much:

I have an extra pair of dark denim(washed) that I got for a song on sale so it'd make for an interesting project. Care to show your secrets on achieving a similar effect, nobd?

There are no secrets. I just wash them after, say, 5-7 wears. Regular wash, 40 degrees celsius. No dryer.

Agreed, this is not flattering. I recognise the difficulties in dressing well for a big fella and your usual slim fits solve this problem very well, but too often you look like you are being squeezed out of your collar, and your facial expression is a little disconcerting too. This may well be due to the camera remote catching you in an unflattering moment, but I reckon a smile would go a long way on your pics!
