Both suits need to be steamed. Same with my camera's lens. Amazingly, neither suit has even a trace of a piss stain. (Top: Corneliani; bottom: Samuelsohn). Total damage: $27.

And this Jil Sander jacket from the "tailor made" line was $7.

I found a so many awesome things the other day. I'm sure they were all from the same person. My town is so small I even know who dropped them off... anyway.

Two Hermes ties, Zenga tie, Roda tie, A Canali dinner Jacket, several House of Carrington Suits, Ferre suit coat...

Will trade if anyone is interested posted pics of Canali and Hermes ties.

Also a Profilo suit coat, Donna Karan suit coat, and an assortment of Peter Millar ties. All suits and suit coats are around 44L and look hardly if ever worn. Pocket squares still untouched. Oh also, a Luis Vuitton Pocket square.
