There are so many great entries, especially the 1960s-inspired ones. I grew up in that decade, regretting that I wasn't a little older as the Mod styles of the mid-sixties seemed to me the epitome of cool. There was one particular piece of kit that I absolutely loved - the Harrington jacket. My entry pays homage to that exquisite piece of outerwear and the mid to late-sixties. My entry: Jacket - Baracuta G9 in 'loden' Shades - Giorgio Armani Polo shirt and cotton v neck - Polo RL Levis 501s Loafers - AE Kenwood (My pics from two or three years ago in Venice) Inspiration:
Two G9s in one contest. Mental! :D
