    ravistailor vs mysuitshop

    I think I remember reading good things about Ravistailor I believe? At any rate, the site seems identical to mysuitshop.com down to the name of the tailor and CEO. Registering at one does not register you at the other. In addition, mysuitshop seems to have lower prices. Anyone know anything...

    Who decided that this is acceptable?

    So, kind of on the original question, where does jeans and a sport coat fall on the list (consisting so far of suit obviously at the top and sport coat with tie and shorts at bottom..)? How about jeans and a sport coat with shirt and tie? I'll already admit I've done both of the two latter, but...

    Polo McCallum Chukka

    Aside from being cordovan, those look almost identical to the JCrew chukkas I got on sale last season..right down to the "Treaded rubber sole." Hoping quality is comprable...I've only had them a few months now.

    Shoe color

    as always, logic wins out. thanks (huge sigh of relief) actually with all the papers coming up, i think that would be the least of my troubles. btw, the word "friend" may be inappropriate, as my friends i just ignore sartorially

    Shoe color

    Need aid in my confidence. Wearing a charcoal suit with a subtle brown and blue windowpane. Decided to try brown shoes with it. Just a few moments ago, i was told (by a female nonetheless) that my shoes should be black as "the buttons on your suit are black." I can wear brown with...

    What should I wear to a Job Expo?

    Too early for cotton khaki suit?

    (misterbowles @ Mar. 17 2005,04:01) Speaking of seersucker, is it really true that one of the "rules" is that they must be worn with a button-down collar? No, but it looks better. Â Casual suit, casual collar. Â It would look silly with a cutaway. Â A tab or a club might might OK. so, if a...

    Seersucker suit

    Col. Sanders?.? Is KFC the only thing seersucker conjures to mind? I was not thinking there was such negative connotations associated with it. Does this mean it is merely associated with the south or perhaps a southern gentleman? Or is it much more negative than that?

    Seersucker suit

    It's getting time to break out the seersucker again. Or for those of us who are newbies, time to purchase one. Being in the latter category, I neglected to think about footwear to accompany said suit. Searching here yielded: white bucks and spectator shoes. Are these the only options? Also...

    Wrongly-pressed lapel fix?

    I too am curious about that. I've taken a few coats/suit to a certain dry cleaner (from whom I have since ceased business) whick would return the jackets without their roll and pressed in an inconvenient position. A few I just got rid of, but I still have one or two which I have saved in the...
