So it was 38 degrees here the other day (that's 100F to the Americans, Liberians and Burmese). This is what I wore - cotton, linen, silk and suede:

Can't see all that much of the fit, but it must be the coolest FC entry since we saw @Synthese and the VanBurens in the desert

Great stuff, man! And lovely accoutrement. This is the second time I've admired your attire and the tailoring looks similar. Where do you get your stuff?


The suit is from New & Lingwood, in London; the shirt is Tyrwhitt; the tie is Charvet, via Bergdorf Goodman, NYC, and the braces are from Paul Stuart, NYC. Thanks for the compliments.

I had forgotten I would not be home Thursday-Friday this week, so I didn't find time/reason to wear a striped suit this week. Not that I would have stood any chance against the great submissions this week.

Anyway:

Poll is up!
