    Cutaway collared shirts

    Hi folks. I am interested in buying some cutaway collar shirts. I haven't seen too many of them in the US, and wanted to know if anybody had any idea where I might be able to purchase some? I live in Atlanta (not NY), so department stores will likely be my option. I don't mind going the RTW...

    Faconnable

    I don't wear my suit jacket when I'm attending meetings in my own office. Perhaps I should find another job that doesn't require the use of a pen so that I can foresake these shirts with the breast pocket, eh? But good gosh if I don't like my job. So I'm in quite the quandry.

    Faconnable

    I wear shirts with pockets and suits all the time. Why? Because I wear a suit at work and often have meetings throughout the day. I like to put a pen in there if I'm jetting over to a conference room, etc. for a meeting. I lose way too many pens if I don't. But back to Facconable. I like the...

    Why can't i get a dimple?

    It's a lot easier to get the dimple with a half Windsor, I have found. It's pretty hard to get a dimple with a four in hand knot. To get a dimple with a 4-in-hand, you have to make the knot entirely too tight, which looks silly, in my opinion. Try a half-windsor and a bet you'll get the dimple...

    Advice for new wardrobe; mtm or rtw at my budget?

    Dare I ask what job you are taking where the senior folks are wearing Kiton and Brioni? Hmmm.

    What universities / colleges you attend or attende

    Not really. Two entirely different things, actually. The CFA is specialized, and usually only for folks in the financial services industry (obviously). CFA's are generally security analysts, portfolio managers and or/asset managers, and/or investment managers. You have to pass the standardized...

    I started learning more fashion as a natural extension to learning more about art and design, I suppose. BA from Emory University MBA from Duke University.

    Unless he was indeed a river boat gambler or an outlaw, in which case he'd probably draw down on you and make you wish you hadn't snickered at him on the streets of that there town.

    Savile row suits

    The other thing to consider is the quality you'd get from fine materials and fine construction. When I was in graduate school, I bought two Kenneth Cole "interview" suits (in 1997, I didn't know much about clothes, though I felt I had decent taste back then). I believe I paid about...

    Jantzen shirt photo

    I think the shirt looks good, though it's hard to tell with the collar unbuttoned. The one thing I can say, and this could be the collar style, but the shirt makes your face look a little blurry.

    Labels you grown to love, hate, and desire

    If we count Von Dutch as a label, then that's one brand I'd like to see extinguished.

    I wasn't trying to be pretentious with the 400/hr comment. It's her money, not mine. Dug just got under my skin a bit. Apologies for writing it in the first place. Should have taken the high road and ignored him.

    Thanks everyone. I don't know why this deteriorated into this sort of thread, when all I was trying to say was that my fiancee bought me a watch based on suggestions from this board. I know Dug has a perspective on this that he wanted to share (ie, full retail versus the savings one can achieve...

    Dug, my friend, now you have somewhat angered me. But I will attempt to answer you calmly. My fiancee is a lawyer and bills out her time at a little more than $400/hour. If she spends more than a couple of hours trying to save $1000 or whatever off the retail price, she's losing money. So when...

    At the risk of sounding pretentious, I don't think my fiancee was too bothered about spending an extra thousand or so on me. Ten years ago, maybe. But not now.

    This reminds me Monte Python's Holy Grail when the French soldiers on top of the tower are insulting King Arthur's men down below.
