Hi guys is taking in the rise of the back of trousers something a tailor would be able to do?
Really? How would I apply the hair conditioner?
With a navy suit, would snuff suede shoes look better or dark brown suede. Please keep in mind that I am a conservative dresser. I am looking for a low key look rather than a flamboyant one
is 2" of extra space at the end of the toe of a dress shoe too much? I just got some new dress shoes in the mail with kind of a tapered toe, and i'm not sure if they're too long or not. I would take a photograph, but i currently dont have a camera apart from my cellphone, this is the stock image of the shoe. the size is 9UK, and they dont feel tight in the toe area. should I send them back in exchange for an 8.5UK?
Anyone get these annoying rips in the elbows of your dress shirts? I seem to continue to get them in the same spot on each shirt I buy. It takes some time but they eventually get it. Is this repairable/patchable? Thoughts or suggestions on how to avoid this? Thanks RR
Some of the B&S regulars may have noticed I've been doing a LOT of closet cleaning lately. I ran across a really nice Gloverall toggle/duffle coat that I had special ordered from England -- their very top of the line model! -- and although it's something like a 38 and I wear a 41, the thing is HUGE. I didn't return it because I had to pay like $150 to customs to get it, blah blah. My question is... is such a coat SUPPOSED to be really big? It doesn't look bad, and I've worn it once or twice, but I can't help but feel like I'm swimming in it. Or is that just a reaction to the current trend of slim-fitting stuff? Thanks in advance!
I just found a Burburry long tan trench coat at a thrift store. I can't find the size but it must be either a 40 or a 38 (I think). At any rate I picked up cause I knew it was a find, but what should I do with it? Sell it? I could keep it but the sleeves are a bit too short.
College student, want to get a Bay St. internship, need a new suit. Budget is around 500, but will consider everything sub-800.
What's the difference between bluchers and derbys? I know nothing about proper shoes. Anyone have a link to a site where I can learn stuff like this?? Besides SF.net please.
ok, I bought a great brown/black herringbone sportscoat made of 'new' wool. Yesterday, after a dinner party, it was raining cats & dogs and someone offered me a jacket to 'save' my coat. I accepted, but really: can't a new wool (different than normal wool?) sportcoat handle rain?????
Is there a RTW suit hierarchy thread somewhere here? I did a search and couldn't find one. Thanks.
Do these Alden captoes look like they're worth $230?
I'm just getting into buying actual shirt with a sizing than buying small medium whatever.
I think it will look a bit off if you are unable to button the collar (weather you plan to or not). Try slim fit and extra slim fit at BB, or go to another store with trimmer shirts. You can also have a tailor bring in the sides or add darts if you like your shirts slimmer.
Any wool sportscoat can handle rain. The sheep do not come in when it rains.
I'm just getting into buying actual shirt with a sizing than buying small medium whatever. So i went to BrooksBrothers and the lady sized me at a 16 1/2 by 34 saying the 15 would be too tight around the neck.I normally wear a small or medium depending on brand cause I like my stuff slim . So alas it fit like I'm wearing daddys shirt.I could still go to a 14 or 15 and be fine with that and not be able to button up the collar?Since I dont wear a tie anyways. Or would that not fit right.And just need to find another brand?I'm pretty avarage 5'11 160 pounds.
