This outfit says, "I am obsessed with clothing."

It also says 'I dig the Royal Artillery design'. re tie design, this Richard James looks Post Imperial to me, or does the large soft squares design predate Tira?





Basically the same as a recent fit but better pics of the Moonbeam fabric, which is awesome.

The Moonbeam looks great. Have something similar on the way.

Not saying the pictures were paid for (Victor already said as much). Just saying that the person that took the photos in question is absolutely, without question, a professional photographer.


This is probably a pointless nitpick, but the photographer could be a highly skilled and enthusiastic hobbyist with great gear.

Whoever it is though, they have a great eye. The shots are all really dynamic, beautifully lit and framed, and like all good photography, the images tell a story.

I'm a bit late to this discussion and it's probably been canvassed already, but I'm pretty sure that I remember that when he was here previously (before he took a break from posting on SF and used Tumblr instead), Victor said that his photographer at that time was the son of his tailor and that the son was a professional photographer. I don't know if it's still the same guy taking the pictures.

Thanks for the thumbs yesterday. I was surprised you guys liked it to be honest. I thought it was a bit busy and some of the colors were a bit too vibrant together.

I got these pants back from the tailor, but he didn't slim the thighs like I though he would. I tried to wear them without this change, but I will definitely be taking them back.

Glad to break out the spring wardrobe. I think this jacket would fit me better if I had it suppressed a bit in the waist and through the quarters. Opinions?
A bit hard to tell from these pictures, but probably yes. What exactly do you mean by "suppressed through the quarters"? And I think in this combination there is not enough contrast between jacket and trousers. I'd take dark grey or cream trousers instead.

Today's outfit. Just got these trousers back from a tailor. Still trying to figure out what the weave on this thing is

P/S: Yeah I know, the jacket collar sucks. I got it before my SF enlightenment.

I cant tell from the picture, but If its a diagonal it's probably a twill or a pick and pick. If not, probably eiter a plain weave or a hopsack (2 x 2 warp and weft).

Gentlemen - thanks for the kind comments on yesterday's posting. Mossrocks - "svelte" is an ongoing struggle, er . . project for me, but thanks for noticing.

Midweek, and sunny - a perfect day to start bringing a lighter weight suit into rotation.

Suit - Paul Stuart/Phineas Cole
Shirt - Thomas Pink
Tie - Hackett, London
Cufflinks - SFA
Braces - Paul Stuart
Shoes - Florsheim Royal Imperial (Magnanni)

Very nice, @Anden ! Being a fan of (micro) houndstooth shirts myself, could you post a close up pic and perhaps share a ref. number?
