Some great entries already, so I'm possibly just making up the numbers, but at the very least it was a useful exercise for me to wear a repp stripe tie for a change, and that's what these challenges are all about.

Trying a new, and I think much better, photo setup. End of the day, so excuse the flash and a few wrinkles.

Deets: 3-piece suit by Peacock & Sons (London) 1964; burgundy / silver / white repp tie by Brooks Brothers, from around the same time; silver-grey cotton square; pink shirt is a Trywhitt. Also wearing (unseen) Herring winter shearling-lined black captoe boots, as it's fuh-reezing here in Ontario. I wouldn't say they were beautiful, but they look better than Sorels!
