I was preparing to set the challenge as What Would Gianni Do when I saw @DonCologne DTO @upr_crust and in that moment I decided to revisit a challenge I've wanted to see for some time.

DTO an SF Bro

Choose another styleforum poster you would like to imitate/ channel/ pay homage to/ etc. and try your best at representing their style/look/manner/. DonC is already ahead of the game.

Rules:

  • Fit must be worn this week.
  • The subject of your DTO must be an SF member.
  • Submissions are due Friday by 5 pm PDT. I will try to include any submissions which get in between then and when I put up the poll, but anyone who posts after 5 pm has no basis to complain.
  • Poll will close at midnight on Monday (in whatever time zone it is that StyFo uses)
  • Bonus points if two posters collaborate in DTOing each other...looking at you @FlyingMonkey and @EFV

Oh, dear. This could either be very funny, or lead to fisticuffs (or both, if one is on the sidelines).

I am currently out of town, but I have an idea that I'd like to try if nobody steals it first. Unfortunately at earliest I would get home late Friday night. Would you permit me a Saturday entry if I am able to get home? Again, I may not enter at all pending work, etc.

It would be a massively putzy move - so, are you going for it? :devil:

Now is the time on Sprockets where NOBD posts the link to previous challenges. Is this the third go-round for DTO?

Well, I remember the first was DTO a celebrity and then DTO another SFer, and now DTO an SFer again.

I think I know who I will DTO, but I imagine I will not be the only one with that selection. Which is not optimal.

I thought the most recent version was DTOing a sartorial hero. Pingson did Patrick Grant I think.
