@DiplomaticTies a question for the Challenge Master:

Out of curiosity, can corduroy count as solid for current purposes, or do the ribs ipso facto make it a patterned fabric?

Cheers,

Ac

Corduroy is acceptable, even encouraged. Unless its a multicoloured corduroy, which is an abomination in any circumstance!

My first entry into a Friday Challenge. It's really hot so no tie, and the only solid PS I own is white linen which I didn't think was appropriate. I focused on texture.

Hot as hell today

BnTailor green linen jacket
Proper Cloth light Japanese chambray
Rota sand cotton/linen trousers
Farnese belt

Good to see that we already have some strong entries. I hope to see Clags and Caustic back too considering the quality of their contributions last time around.

Here's my entry.

D'oh, I suppose reading the rules would help...

Feel free to delete the post!
The jacket is so nice that I wont delete it. But I have to think about if you will be eligible for a vote in the end, will see...
