    Bijan suits opinions

    Thats what I figured, I guess Bijan is more about the hype than the actual item of which I feel that I would get something better by going directly to Kiton or Brioni, or something MTM or bespoke.

    Bijan suits opinions

    So I recently found out from some non-sartorial friends about the Bijan suit. I am very familiar with English, Japanese, French and Italian tailor houses and brands, but no little to nothing about American brands other than Brooks Brothers. What is so special about the house of Bijan? The price...

    Tiebar/clip with Waistcoat? Is that even a thing?

    So I have been watching the show peaky blinders whereas the main character Tommy Shelby is wearing a tiebar with a waistcoat. I have never heard about this way of dressing and have always thought that the only other addon to use when wearing a waistcoat is maybe and rarely a discreet tietack...

    Short sleeve dress shirts, are they ever ok?

    Only when it is over 29 degrees celsius, any short sleeved dress shirt is better than wearing a t-shirt. Or if you are an airline pilot.

    HOF: What Are You Wearing Right Now - Part IV (starting May 2014)

    Thanks!! The top priority for this outfit was that sweet spot between cosplaying and "normality", just the right amount and not looking like a costume, I usually wear sportscaps in my casual outfits when I have bad hairdays, the flatcap serving the same purpose. In line with modernizing and not...

    HOF: What Are You Wearing Right Now - Part IV (starting May 2014)

    Funny thing, that is exactly what I have been thinking ever since I joined SF, I would say its a combination of people wanting to be trendy(which often happen to be of Italian styles) and the association of conservatism with the traditional Savile Row houses. There is also a stereotype SF about...
