    Back from London - Impressions.

    I don't think the Honda/Ferrari comparison is fair. Lewin shirts may be Hondas, perfectly OK, nice enough, very good value. T&A shirts (I speak of RTW, having none MTM or bespoke) are better, but not -- relatively speaking -- Ferraris. I think the other non-mass-market Jermyn Street outfits...

    Back from London - Impressions.

    I'm glad you saw some good style here, though I fear it may just be one of the effects of travelling that one is in a good mood and notices the few well-dressed people, rather than the many badly dressed ones.

He should ask you about the "usual" things, but is entitled to expect you to ask him about anything out of the ordinary. For...

    Classic Navy with BOLD white pinstripes Suit. Pics enclosed, views sought.

    Very English look, and (both pictures) absolutely acceptable here for business. Indeed, looks very City (i.e. Wall Street) in our terms. But no Englishman would (nowadays) ever wear the striped tie: we simply don't ... though some would wear a striped shirt! A toned down tie would not balance...
